Changes

The first major addition expansion to the Magic Kingdom came in 1988 when Mickey's Birthdayland was built. The land was built in the park in celebration of Mickey Mouse's 60th birthday. Mickey’s Birthdayland consisted of the fictional town of Duckburg, and allowed guests to tour Mickey's house. The land also featured Minnie's Surprise Party, which was a show dedicated to Mickey's birthday. A train station was built in Mickey's Birthdayland so that the [[Walt Disney World Railroad]] would be able to drop guests off in the new landarea. Although originally intended to be temporary, the Mickey’s Birthdayland was so popular with guests, that gueststhat Disney decided to make the land permanent, renaming it Mickey's Starland in 1990. Minnie's Surprise Party was re-themed and became Mickey's Magical TV World. The new show featured characters from the popular Disney Afternoon cartoon shows.  In 1996, the once temporary land was again re-themed. Now called Mickey's Toontown Fair, the new land took place in the fictional Toontown. Toontown was larger than Mickey's Birthdayland, although it did carry over the Mickey's house attraction. Added to Toontown were Donald's Boat, The Barnstormer at Goofy's Wiseacre Farm, and the Judges Tent where guests could meet various Disney characters. In 2011 Mickey's Toontown fair was closed to make way for the Fantasyland Expansion.
