Behind an unmarked door at 33 Royal Street in Disneyland’s New Orleans Square, Club 33 is the park’s legendary private members club — with a multi-year waitlist and annual membership fees reaching five figures. Its merchandise is equally exclusive and commands prices on secondary markets that reflect both its rarity and its prestige.
A Brief History of Club 33
Club 33 opened in 1967 — the year Walt Disney died, meaning he never dined in the club he designed. Originally conceived to entertain corporate sponsors and VIP guests, it became a beloved institution and has since expanded to Walt Disney World, Tokyo, and Paris. The original Disneyland location at 33 Royal Street remains the most storied. The club’s name is variously attributed to its street address, the number of original corporate sponsors, or the 33rd degree of Freemasonry — Disney officially declines to confirm any theory.
