Winnie the Pooh 100 Year of Disney Magic Waly Disney World (2002)



In 2002, Winnie the Pooh was featured as part of the “100 Years of Magic” celebration at Walt Disney World, a 15-month event honoring the 100th birthday of Walt Disney. Although Winnie the Pooh was originally created by author A. A. Milne in 1926, the character became one of Disney’s most beloved franchises after the studio acquired adaptation rights and produced animated featurettes beginning in the 1960s. During the 2002 celebration, Pooh and friends from the Hundred Acre Wood appeared in themed merchandise, park parades, and character meet-and-greet experiences, especially around Fantasyland attractions such as The Many Adventures of Winnie the Pooh. The event highlighted Pooh’s enduring popularity among families and reinforced his role as a timeless Disney icon within the broader legacy of Disney storyteller.
