“I only hope that we never lose sight of one thing, that it was all started by a mouse.” – Walt Disney
What an exemplary quote that defines the magnificent celebration currently taking place at the Disneyland Resort – Disney 100 Years of Wonder. The celebration of the Walt Disney Company’s 100th Anniversary kicked off on January 27th, at the Disneyland Resort in Anaheim, California.
Founded on October 16th, 1923, originally known as the Disney Brother Cartoon Studio, Walt Disney and his brother Roy Disney started their journey and later, per Roy Disney’s suggestion, change their company name to the Walt Disney Studio.
Now, almost 100 years later, we come together to celebrate the stories, characters and journeys this wonderful company brought to life.
Now, lets get into the details of this extraordinary celebration!
