Dream Makers is located between the Castle of Magical Dreams and Cinderella Carousel in Fantasyland at Hong Kong Disneyland. Walt is seated with one hand gesturing toward the carousel and the other toward the castle, as Mickey looks at him with delight.

This moment is inspired by the times when Walt would take his two daughters to similar attractions — Griffith Park Merry-Go-Round in Los Angeles — and thought about an “amusement enterprise” idea where children and their parents could have fun together. While this moment would have occurred earlier in Walt’s life, the statue shows an older Walt reflecting on what he has built and his excitement of the possibilities that are yet to come.

Dream Makers was sculpted by multiple dimensional designers at Walt Disney Imagineering, including Scott Goddard and Patrick Simmons who worked on Walt, and Erma Yazzie who sculpted Mickey. Check out this latest video showing how Imagineers in Hong Kong and California brought this statue to life in consultation with the Walt Disney Animation Studios Creative Legacy team.

Dream Makers is a fitting addition to the legacy of Walt Disney statues across Disney parks and a beautiful tribute in honor of The Walt Disney Company’s centennial anniversary!
