This news has been a very long time in coming but Disney has just announced that Enchanted Tales With Belle is returning to the Magic Kingdom on February 19.

This much loved attraction has not reopened since the theme park closures due to COVID-19 in March 2020. This is another fantastic piece of news for Disney fans and continues in Disney's quest of returning long shuttered character experiences to the parks.

Guests will once again get to meet Belle and step into her and Maurice's cottage as well as touring Maurice's workshop which is laden with gadgets. You will get to meet the Enchanted Wardrobe and enjoy fun with Lumiere inside the Beast's library.

We are unsure at this point if any modifications have been done on this attraction during its closure and we expect to hear further details as we get closer to the February 19 reopening.

As you can also see from the tweet above, Disney is bringing back Ariel's Grotto beginning January 22. Guests will once again be able to enjoy seeing and interacting with Ariel. Both Enchanted Tales With Belle and Ariel's Grotto will be available as part of the Genie+ Lightning Lane selection when they return.
