Disneyland is celebrating 90 wonderful years of Mickey Mouse with a new museum, Pop-Up Disney! A Mickey Celebration, and it's everything a Disney fan could want and more. Not only is it full of Instagram-worthy backdrops and rooms that bring the mouse to life in new and unexpected ways, but guests can also step into the past (literally) and climb aboard a black and white airplane as Mickey's copilot. There's also an entire room dedicated to Mickey-shaped treats, and you can relive some of Mickey's most iconic moments.
Pop-Up Disney! A Mickey Celebration is located at the west end of the Downtown Disney District and is open daily from 10 a.m. until 9 p.m. Guests must book reservations online, as tickets won't be available at the door. If you're looking for a fun Disneyland day but don't want to go into the park, the pop-up is a great option. Keep reading for more fun facts and photos about the limited-time museum, which currently has no official end date.

Steamboat Willie Photo Op
Mickey's debut was in the Walt Disney animation classic Steamboat Willie. Guests who go to Pop-Up Disney! A Mickey Celebration have the opportunity to climb aboard the classic ship and pretend they're at the helm of the magic, even for just a moment.
Getting Into Pop-Up Disney! A Mickey Celebration
Tickets for the event must be purchased in advance. Weekday tickets (Monday through Thursday) cost $30 before 4 p.m.. On evenings and weekends — Monday through Thursday after 4 p.m. and all day Friday through Sunday — tickets cost $38.
A Tribute to Walt Disney
Without Walt, none of this would be possible, so it's only fitting that there's a wall dedicated to him.
Exclusive Merchandise
Throughout the event, Pop-Up Disney! will be selling exclusive merchandise celebrating 90 years of Mickey Mouse. Some of the items include spirit jerseys, hats, t-shirts, and Tervis-style cups.
