At Disneyland, What is Club 33?
In New Orleans Square in Disneyland, near the Blue Bayou Restaurant, there is a door marked “33.” This is the entrance to Club 33, a little-known members-only club that is also the only place in Disneyland able to serve alcohol. Club 33 was designed by Walt Disney himself to entertain Corporate sponsors and other VIPs, and was included in the original plans for New Orleans Square. After Disney died, Club 33 was opened up to members who could pay the fee, which ranged from $7,500 to $20,000 US Dollars (USD) with an annual fee of $3,025 to $5,825 USD, depending on type of membership. There is also an initiation fee of $10,000 USD, and a waiting list that can be over five years long.
