The Door

One of the best known secrets in Disneyland California is the illustrious Club 33. Situated in New Orleans Square next to the Blue Bayou restaurant, this private club has been open since June 15th 1967. The name Club 33 comes from the address, 33 Royal Street. It was built alongwith the apartment above Pirates of the Caribbean (now the Dream Suite) for Walt Disney, but he died before he could see the completion.
It is very difficult to obtain a membership for Club 33 - nowadays it can still take up to a decade for membership. According to The Disneyland Encyclopedia (p111) in 2007 the joining fee was $10,000 per individual, and at least $3,000 in annual membership fees. Of course, for those of us who are unable to afford that privilege you can get a glimpse inside the entrance for the Club as part of the Walk in Walt's Footsteps tour at the Disneyland park.
