17 Disneyland Secrets They Don't Know Want You To Know‏

13. There's A Secret Speakeasy

Disneyland Club 33

We don't know where they get off calling the Disney parks the happiest places on Earth when they seem to be stuck in the Prohibition era.

What mouse have we gotta blow to get a drink around here? In actuality there are two places you can legally source some booze once you step into the Magic Kingdom: a Little Mermaid-themed restaurant in the park, and an exclusive, hidden venue called Club 33 which you'll probably never get to see.

Because it tends to be kept pretty quiet (to the point that most punters won't even know that it exists), and because it has a ten-year waiting list before you're allowed to even enter the place. Located in the heart of New Orleans Square, Club 33 is a private club and, although every Disney attraction has a park-wide liquor license and has set up bars for private events, it's pretty much the only place to get real booze in the parks.

Not only do you get to hang out in a cool, speakeasy-style bar and get drunk whilst at Disneyland, being a member of Club 33 lets you get into any park for free, and you get to go in before they open. The existence of Club 33 doesn't often get mentioned by cast members because, well, you're not supposed to know about it unless you're a member.

And you almost certainly aren't, unless you're fabulously wealthy, rich and famous.
