New Mickey and Minnie Meet-And-Greet at EPCOT Reserved for the Highest-Paying Guests

A brand-new character experience has arrived at EPCOT—but only for a select group of Walt Disney World Resort’s top-paying guests. On Sunday, Mickey and Minnie Mouse debuted an exclusive meet-and-greet inside a private Disney Vacation Club (DVC) lounge.

The meet-and-greet takes place at the Disney Vacation Club ImaginAtrium – A Member Lounge, located on the second floor of the Imagination! Pavilion at EPCOT. The newly updated lounge opened last fall as part of a reimagining of the former DVC Member Lounge, offering a refreshed, futuristic space for members to relax and recharge. Walt Disney World Resort guests can enter by showing a valid DVC Membership Card and photo ID at the entrance located inside the ImageWorks section of the pavilion.

Once inside, Disney Park guests take the Walter Peregoy elevator up to the second level, where cast members assist with seating. The lounge offers complimentary snacks, charging outlets, and multiple Coca-Cola Freestyle machines. DVC members can bring up to four guests or the number of individuals listed on their resort reservation.

Now, the lounge features an added benefit—an exclusive meet-and-greet opportunity with Mickey and Minnie Mouse in new, travel-themed outfits. However, this perk is not available to all DVC members. Only those enrolled in the Membership Magic Beyond program, which costs an additional $99 per year, are eligible to participate in the experience.
