The Rooms

There are SEVEN themed rooms that will make your jaw draw. I remember seeing some rendered drawings on the Disneyland website but to actually see the rooms in real life made me so giddy. I felt overwhelmed and didn’t know what to take a picture of first!

Room #1: Mickey & Minnie’s Love

This room celebrates everything Mickey and Minnie and their LOVE for each other. Whether it’s the ADORABLE BOW couch, 3-D bows on the walls, giant sequin heart, or mural with cut outs of Mickey and Minnie, this room will blow your mind!

Room #2: It All Started With a Mouse

After celebrating Mickey and Minnie’s love, it’s time to go back to the roots of where it all began- Steamboat Willie. This room is filled with 3 major photo spots- a wall of Steamboat Wille stuffies with hidden Minnie stuffies. You can be the captain of your own ship or fly out of there in a plane. Not to mention the walls- if your aesthetic is black, white, and polkadots- this is your place.

Room #3: Mickey’s Friendships

SO. MANY. PHOTO. OPPS. This room celebrates Mickey’s friendships. My favorite part of this room was the mural of his friends holding hands and walking!

Room #4: Sorcerer Mickey’s Magic

This room was a bit dark but still magical. I loved the twinkling sparkles throughout the room on the walls. Such a beautiful room!

Room #5: Mickey Around the World

Room #6: Forever Mickey

Room #7: Mickey At Disneyland

Special Merchandise:

Marceline’s Confectionery has special sweets that can be purchased. Event ticket is required to purchase. There are also special Pop-Up merchandise and snacks available in the merchandise area.

 

Tips:

• There are Cast Members in each room that can help take pictures but if you’re particular about how you want your pictures to look, bring a friend.
• There’s a “flow” to going through the rooms because a new group enters every 10-15 minutes so be mindful of that. There are certain rooms that you might like more than others but you can’t stay in the room for an extended amount of time.
• If you want to bring extra outfits, think about quick/easy ways to look different- maybe wear layers (think jackets or sweatshirts) or even shirts (like button downs and t-shirts.) Accessorize! (Ears, bags, backpacks!) Possibilities are endless but remember- you can’t stay in each room FOREVER (although you might want to.)
• Do dress in theme and show off your Disney style!!!
