First “Smellephants” Of New Experience Appear At Magic Kingdom Ahead Of Opening Next Month

Guests visiting Magic Kingdom at Walt Disney World are getting their first glimpses of the new experience coming to Storybook Circus – Smellephants on Parade presented by Scentsy – with the first installation of circus-themed Smellephants now visible at the park.

What’s Happening:

  • Walt Disney World’s Magic Kingdom is about to get even more colorful as the installation of Smellephants on Parade presented by Scentsy has begun at Storybook Circus.
  • Announced last summer, guests visiting the land will go on a brand-new, interactive search-and-sniff experience, perfect for noses of all ages.
  • Now, almost a year after originally announced, the first of these new Smellephants has been installed and appears to be sporting a guise reminiscent of one of our favorite circus snacks – Popcorn!
  • More Smellephants are expected to arrive soon, allowing guests to encounter additional circus-themed fun, featuring fragrances provided by Scentsy, like Churro, Cotton Candy and more.

  • When entering Storybook Circus, guests will stumble upon a casting call posted by Timothy Q. Mouse, seeking out a “Whiff-sistant” to join Dumbo’s newest act. At the ticket booth in front of Big Top Souvenirs, a cast member will provide guests with an illustrated map of the land and a sticker sheet to guide them in their first task as a Whiff-sistant.
  • And the task is simple: find all eight Smellephant statues scattered around Storybook Circus, using the stickers and map to track their progress.  
  • This complimentary and voluntary experience will be available to guests of all ages next month. And while the Smellephants will be scattered throughout the Storybook Circus area, guests with sensitive sniffers are still welcome and able to enjoy this fun-filled land.
  • If you’d like to check out the new Smellephants for yourself, or any of the other fun that’s in store for Walt Disney World this summer, be sure to reach out to our friends at Mouse Fan Travel, who can assist with all your Disney Travel needs.
