Disneyland Fireworks Event Slammed by Disney Cofounder’s Granddaughter

It looks like the granddaughter of the Walt Disney Company's cofounder isn't happy seeing Walt Disney World having some festive merry-making before closing down to prevent the spread of COVID-19.

According to a report by People, Walt Disney World decided to put on its last fireworks display for a huge crowd of visitors packed close together during its last show before closing for the rest of the month to prevent the novel coronavirus pandemic.

Pictures of a sea of people forgoing the recommended act of social distancing have begun spreading online, and it seems to have drawn a lot of criticism from netizens on Twitter. The pictures were also criticized by Abigail Disney, the granddaughter of Roy Disney, the cofounder of the Walt Disney Company.

Responding to a tweet by WDW News Today showcasing two photos of jampacked areas in Walt Disney World – Cinderella's Castle and Main Street USA- Abigial Disney couldn't help but curse at the pictures captioned "Current crowds at the Magic Kingdom for tonights showing of Happily Ever After....#DisneyWorld."

Sharing the post on Twitter, Abigail Disney couldn't help but cry out, saying "Are you f-cking kidding me?"

We definitely understand the outrage that netizens have over Disney World for risking the health of guests this way. COVID-19 can easily spread when people aren't practicing preventive measures like proper hygiene and social distancing.

While Disney may have wanted to have a last hurrah before closing Disney World, the House of Mouse could have made guests follow the social distancing protocol before doing so.
