I cannot think of a better way to celebrate National Polka Dot Day than with the Queen of Polka Dots herself; Minnie Mouse. Disney Springs sponsored Minnie Mouse as she hosted her Disney Springs Minnie Rocks the Dots Event on Sunday, January 22nd, in honor of National Polka Dot Day. From the Event Button and Event Flyer featuring Event-only discounts by Disney Springs vendors, to the Photo-Ops, Special Food Offerings, and Dance Party the Minnie Rocks the Dots Event was great fun for everyone.
The Minnie Rocks the Dots Buttons featured Minnie Mouse and the social media #ROCKtheDOTS surrounded by a circle of dots. The Event Flyer listed all of the vendors offering special discounts, merchandise, and gift with purchase options. The back of the Event Flyer sported pictures of some of the Minnie Mouse merchandise available for purchase.
Many of the store vendors offered percentage off a purchase. Many shops offered either a 20%, 15%, or 10% off purchase. Other shops offered gift with purchase options such as Kate Spade offering a pair of earrings, or a Kate Spade tote bag, with the purchase of any polka-dot item.
One of our favorite things to do at Disney Events is to meet up with friends and take advantage of the fun photo-ops that are typically available. The Disney Springs Minnie Rocks the Dots Event had two options for Event photo-ops. We enjoyed having the Disney Photographers take our pictures so we could download them from our My Disney Experience Apps.
Another fun way to enjoy a Disney Event is to seek out foods specifically available for that event. Sprinkles Cupcakes featured a special red and white polka dot topping on three of their cupcakes. The options were the Red Velvet Cupcake, the Vanilla Milk Chocolate Cupcake, and the Vanilla Cupcake. Amorette’s Patisserie had the Minnie Mouse Pastry. This specialty pastry featured lemon chiffon cake, with strawberry mousse dots and chocolate pudding, and was only available for one weekend.
The absolute best part of the Disney Springs Minnie Rocks the Dots Event was the Dance Party hosted by Minnie Mouse. She graced us with her presence featuring four different ensembles. She stepped out periodically to change her outfit and each time she returned full of energy and ready to dance. All of her ensembles were fabulous but we particularly liked her classic red satin look. Minnie Mouse also enjoys taking Selfies with guests too!
The Disney Springs Minnie Rocks the Dots Event took place in the area I call the “tunnel” in Town Center heading towards Planet Hollywood and the Coca-Cola Store from the Lime Garage and the Resort Bus drop-off area. Prior to the start of the event, there were flags, a DJ stage, and lovely flowers placed on display to set the mood for festive fun. We are very hopeful that Minnie Mouse will host this fun Rock the Dots Event at Disney Springs to honor National Polka Dot Day again next year.
