Hollywood Studios Construction Updates We spotted Disney World 50th Anniversary banners now located outside and inside of Hollywood Studios. 50th Anniversary Banners’ The 50th anniversary banners are slightly different in each Disney World park. The Hollywood Studios banners feature a shimmery gold border with a kind-of old Hollywood Art Deco pattern. Here’s a first look at Disney World’s 50th anniversary banners! While we already saw finger scanning return to Disney’s Animal Kingdom, it has also now returned to Hollywood Studios. Finger Scanning is BACK Disney World had not been requiring finger scans since the parks reopened in July 2020. During a recent trip, we were told they would be returning to all four Disney World parks. And although hand sanitizer is available upon entering the park, we did not notice Cast Members wiping the scanners between guests. Here are photos and videos of finger scanning returning to Disney World!
