The refurbishment of the Galactic Gateway stage in Magic Kingdom is now complete. The Tomorrowland venue has been blocked off for repainting and maintenance since early March.
Galactic Gateway Refurbishment
Rolling planters are gone from around the stage, indicating work is done. The stage has a fresh new blue and silver color scheme. For comparison, below is a photo of the stage from March.
It previously had bright aqua-colored pillars and yellow back corners. The booth across from the stage was also repainted with the new color scheme.
Now the curved pillars are the same dark blue as the bases of the stage lighting supports. The edge of the stage, which was formerly white, is a light blue.
Two slanted panels on the stage’s back wall were previously black. They are now white like the rest of the wall (except for two black pieces of glass).
The shutters next to the doors on the stage are now gold against blue panels. The shutters were formerly purple.
The floor of the stage appears to be about the same as it was before — gray with black details. The screen, which was recently reactivated, displays the same old “Galactic Gateway” logo in space.
The side walls of the stage are light blue instead of white. The previously yellow corners are now the dark blue. There are silver and gold details.
Rows of circles on the sides and back are dark green.
This isn’t the first time the stage has been repainted. Years ago, when it still hosted Stitch’s SuperSonic Celebration, the stage featured more purple and green. The newest color scheme better matches current Tomorrowland theming.
There are still two rolling planters left around a lighting support. A blue tarp covers part of the support’s base.
The other planter is in front of the showtimes sign, which has read “No Shows Today” for a long time. The stage usually hosts seasonal shows and dance parties, as well as character appearances.
This area is also known as Rocket Tower Plaza Stage or, informally, the Tomorrowland stage.
