At Disneyland Resort, the duck decorating contest saw categories like “Most Disney Themed” and “Most Like Donald Duck,” culminating in a quacky race through the “it’s a small world” attraction. This playful tradition highlighted the cast’s artistic talents and united them in a joyful celebration.
Over at Hong Kong Disneyland, the celebrations took on a unique twist with a duck scavenger hunt and rubber duck fashion contest. Cast members like Winnie Lo and Rita Lee showcased their creativity, crafting one-of-a-kind designs such as a hand-knit Snow White duck and a recycled material scene featuring Donald Duck and his nephews. These events not only sparked creativity but also brought cast members together, creating cherished memories and a strong sense of community.
