Happy 50th Birthday Pirates of the Caribbean!

Last Updated on: July 9th, 2022

It’s hard to believe, but 50 years ago today, on March 18, 1967, Pirates of the Caribbean made its maiden voyage at Disneyland. Who could have imagined the enormity of the franchise the iconic park ride would turn into spawning a number of rides at other parks and a multi-billion dollar movie series.

To celebrate the anniversary, Disneyland has created this retrospective Pirates of the Caribbean video. Enjoy!

I am founder and editor of DisneyNews.us. My passion for all things Disney goes pretty far back to my first trip to Walt Disney World in the mid-80's. I have since returned to the magical place more than 20 times. I started this site when I came to the realization that I spent a significant portion of my day reading articles about Disney and watching Disney content with my 8-year old, so it made sense that I would start sharing some of what I read and see and building a little community around it. Other interests include 80's nostalgia, vintage toys, video games, LEGO, Star Wars and tech gadgets. Other sites include DMR and VideoGamesStats.com.
