Rapunzel will be welcomed into that small, but elite, group, known as the Disney Princesses, this fall.
In a first event of its kind, Rapunzel, the heroine of Disney’s 50th animated feature, Tangled, will join other Disney Princesses as part of the official Disney Court of Princesses on October 2, 2011. The event will be held at Kensington Palace in Great Britain, and will feature a processional through Hyde Park, a festive celebration, a special ceremony, and appearances by celebrities, VIPs, and fans alike.
More details will be shared closer to the time of the event. Rapunzel will join Snow White, Cinderella, Aurora, Ariel, Belle, Jasmine, Mulan, Pocahontas, and Tiana as an official Disney Princess, and will bring her sense of adventure with her:
…Each of our princesses has a unique story and Rapunzel is no exception. She’s an inquisitive princess who fills her days with art, books and imagination and can’t help but feel her true destiny lies outside of those lonely tower walls.
