D23 to Host Visit to Walt Disney's Hometown of Marceline June 2023

As part of Disney’s 100th anniversary celebration, D23, the Official Disney Fan Club, is hosting a Gold Member visit to Walt Disney’s hometown of Marceline, MO, on June 3, 2023.


The Details

D23 invites its Gold Members back to Walt’s boyhood hometown for a one-of-a-kind experience that includes exploring the Walt Disney Hometown Museum, visiting Walt Disney Elementary School, strolling down Marceline’s own “Main Street, U.S.A.,” and even a special dinner reception outside Walt’s former farmhouse.

Attendees will also get to witness a clock dedication ceremony from CITIZEN at the Walt Disney Hometown Museum Garden.

The event also includes:

  • Special presentation and Q&A with Bob Wilson, retired CEO/COO of Retlaw Enterprises, the Disney family’s private corporation
  • Lunch at a choice of one of Marceline’s local restaurants
  • Motorcoach transportation for the round-trip journey from Chillicothe, Missouri, to Marceline
  • A commemorative gift created exclusively for this special occasion

“I’m glad I’m a small-town boy, and I’m glad Marceline was my town,” he once said of his home town.
