Disney just announced 19 new, limited-time experiences coming to Walt Disney World in 2019. In the Magic Kingdom, Mickey and Minnie will be the highlights, with new parades, shows, and food (of course!) dedicated to the main mice!
Mickey and Minnie’s Surprise Celebration
Not many details were released about this except that it will have new music, dancing, and “all sorts of other fun”. We’ll keep you posted as details are announced.
Move It! Shake It! MousekeDance It! Street Party
You and your kiddos will be able to dance with Mickey, Minnie and others in front of Cinderella Castle. There will be live singers singing new arrangements of “Mickey Mouse Club” songs as well.
Dapper Dans
The Dapper Dans will be adding songs that honor Mickey and Minnie as they perform on Main Street, U.S.A.
Mickey and Minnie Themed Merchandise and Food
Our favorite topic! We will keep you updated on the merch that comes to the park as well as the special food!
Since this is a surprise celebration, there will be other entertainment and experiences that will pop-up in the park. Start looking for the new entertainment, merchandise, and food after January 18, 2019!

I have to be honest but I won’t be really excited until I see at Nighttime Parade at MK again! Dance parties don’t do much for me and I would much rather see Disney bring the Dragon back in the FOF Parade even without the flame.

Linda – Blessings! All of us are wishing you love and lots of pixie dust on your January trip! — I took my daughter to Disneyland for her first trip when she was only 4 months’ old and she’s a stone-cold Disney nut! So I’m sure you’re on the right road with your granddaughter. 🙂 Have lots of fun!
