Here’s how metro-Detroiters can take a nostalgic trip to McDonaldland
In the whimsical world of McDonaldland lives a colorful cast of characters who are legendary, timeless and cherished by McDonald’s fans across generations.
Now, for the first time in more than 20 years, Ronald McDonald, Grimace, Birdie, Hamburglar, Mayor McCheese and the Fry Friends are officially taking the trip out of the group chat. Fans in southeast Michigan are invited to visit the Golden Arches to grab the all new McDonaldland Meal, starting Aug. 12.
The meal features a new, limited-edition Mt. McDonaldland Shake — an ode to one of its major landmarks– that offers a secret concoction as enchanting as the world itself. It’s up to you to discover the surprise flavor.
Unique souvenirs
It also comes with your choice of a Quarter Pounder® with Cheese or 10-piece Chicken McNuggets®, World Famous Fries®, and even a first-of-its-kind collectible souvenir that’s sure to unlock core memories.
“Over the past few years we’ve seen how fans flock to our characters, everyone from Grimace to the Hamburglar. But many, especially the new generation, don’t know that’s just the tip of the iceberg,” said Jennifer “JJ” Healan, McDonald’s VP, U.S. Marketing, Brand, Content & Culture.
“There’s an entire magical world of McDonaldland filled with characters, places and lore. And so, for the first time in decades we are taking fans on a trip to McDonaldland with an immersive experience that taps into the past to create the future.
‘Magical world’
“It’s a chance for us to give fans a new, modern way to experience this magical world.”
So, pack your bags for a fun-filled itinerary that lets you explore all that McDonaldland has to offer.
