Do you really want to drink stuff brewed by an 18 year old cast member that can't legally drink the stuff himself?

Pop-Up Disney! A Mickey Celebration Coming Soon to the Disneyland Resort
by Valerie Lee, Public Relations Manager, Disneyland Resort

Here’s a pop quiz: Love art? Love taking photos? Love Mickey Mouse? If your answers are yes, yes and yes, we have something popping up, just for you! The Disneyland Resort is introducing an all-new, must-see pop-up experience at the Downtown Disney District. Coming this spring, Pop-Up Disney! A Mickey Celebration will transport you through a visually and whimsically immersive experience celebrating 90 years of the one and only Mickey Mouse, and his darling, Minnie Mouse.

This limited-time exhibition will feature several different imaginatively themed rooms with vivid displays inspired by all things Mickey Mouse. Every room will feature selfie-worthy surprises and provide plenty of fun and fabulous photo ops for all your family and friends.
Pop-Up Disney! A Mickey Celebration Coming Soon to the Disneyland Resort

One such surprise will be a super-sized and super sweet bow sofa. In this area, you can pop into the portrait and take a seat on Minnie’s plush sofa or pose under Minnie’s giant bows and hearts. Don’t forget to blow a kiss!

This separately ticketed exhibit will be located near the Downtown Disney District Monorail station in the former space of ESPN Zone. Tickets will go on sale soon. Keep your ears perked to the Disney Parks Blog for more details!

Pop-Up Disney! A Mickey Celebration is another fantastic example of the excitement and evolution of entertainment, dining and shopping in the Downtown Disney District. Most recently, we welcomed Ballast Point Brewing Company, Salt & Straw scoop shop, the re-designed Wetzel’s Pretzels, Naples Ristorante e Bar, Napolini Pizzeria and the re-imagined World of Disney!

Exhibit elements and activities subject to change or cancellation without notice.

Actually, Pop-Up Disney! A Mickey Celebration is another fantastic example of the dumbing down and cheapening of every last element of society, where you're encouraged not to think, ask questions, or expect anything of any substance or value, just "smile!", nod, and pull out that wallet.

Seems very similar to several Instagram-ready "exhibits" or "experiences" that have been coming and going in NYC the past year...Candytopia, The Color Factory, Rose Mansion, ...and Mickey The Original Exhibition...

While not for everyone I understand the charging of a fee to enter, otherwise it would be a "free" attraction within Downtown Disney. The ones I mentioned above generally go for about $45 a person after taxes/fees, so it will be interesting to see what they charge here.

It's a separately ticketed exhibit!??!?!?!?

A friggin pay to take selfies experience.

I hate the world we live in now.

Same. We have not one but two of these gimmicky "Instagram museums" in SF: The Museum of Ice Cream and Candytopia. You should see the lines of people on weekends waiting to enter. I wouldn't be caught dead in either one. BTW, it costs $38 for anyone over 3 years old to enter the Museum of Ice Cream in SF. 😒

That's it. I'm officially old.

I read this and it makes me want to launch into a "these kids today" speech and shout for someone to "get off my lawn" while I tell them about "back in my day...".

On the other hand, I'm a bit amused that people will actually pay for this. A sucker really is born every minute.

Why should you go to the ticket event when you can watch the annoying youtube vloggers give a tour... oh wait.
