What to expect

Prince Charming Regal Carrousel is the ornate carousel at the center of Magic Kingdom's Fantasyland courtyard. The attraction opened with the park in 1971 using a restored early-20th-century carousel originally built by the Philadelphia Toboggan Company, giving the ride a direct link to classic American amusement history while fitting into Cinderella Castle's royal setting.
