Hi there, Jenny! Thank you so much for stopping by planDisney with your question!
You and I have something in common, Jenny. It seems we both love the Queen of Polka Dots, Minnie Mouse! Isn't she just the sweetest? But, let's get to your question because I think I have a few recommendations for you!
First, it sounds like you already have your
theme park ticket and park reservation set for Disney California Adventure Park and you're hoping to also visit Disneyland Park on the same day. If so, you will want to ensure that you have purchased a valid ticket or Magic Key Pass with
Park Hopper entitlements. The Park Hopper benefit allows Guests the ability to cross between theme parks after 11AM, as long as there is capacity. So, no worries if you want to enjoy Disney California Adventure Park first, then hop on over to Disneyland Park for some shopping!
But, let me put you at ease if you don't have the ability to park hop because there are several opportunities to get your Minnie-themed merchandise at
Elias & Co. inside Disney California Adventure Park or even at
World of Disney located in the Downtown Disney District, which does not require theme park admission. In fact, I think you'll find several
merchandise shops throughout the Disneyland Resort that offer items for purchase reflecting the style of our favorite fashionable girl, Minnie!
I also wanted to share a few other suggestions for
Mickey and Minnie Mouse experiences throughout the 'Happiest Place on Earth!'
- Explore Minnie's House and even have a chance to meet her in her garden, located over in Mickey's Toontown. One of my favorite sights is her Wishing Well!
- While you're there, be sure to experience Mickey & Minnie's Runaway Railway, the newest attraction to open in Disneyland Park!
- Did you know that Minnie Mouse makes an appearance at three of the character dining locations at Disneyland Resort? She loves to greet Dreamers of all ages, right at your breakfast table!
- Plus, Minnie has some toe-tapping dance moves in her signature yellow heels! You can find her grooving in the 'Magic Happens' parade in Disneyland Park and at the Disney Jr. Dance Party in Disney California Adventure Park.
Well, Jenny, I hope those are all helpful suggestions for you. I hope your next visit is full of all the optimism, wonder, and genuine friendship that Minnie Mouse inspires around the globe. And of course, no shortage of polka dots! If we can help with anything else in the meanwhile, come back and see us here at
