Dapper Day at Disney is Coming! Are You Ready?

Published

on

It’s hard to imagine Disneyland embracing whimsy any more than they already have; but every Mouseketeer knows that the best day to visit the House of Mouse in Anaheim, Orlando, or Paris is during Dapper Day.

With the slogan, “stepping out in style”, this biannual celebration attracts over 30,000 ladies and gents, dressed in heaps of tulle, sharp waistcoats, and Minnie themed polka dot dresses with matching cat-eye sunglasses.

There is no age-limit or “designated look” in order to participate, but founder Justin Jorgensen advices attendees to “dress to impress.” Many come inspired by 1920’s fashion, which they deem the epitome of dapper. This growing event has even attracted the Disneybounders, who have mixed the themes of sophisticated garb with color-blocking their favorite animated characters.

What started in February 2011 with a mere 100 well-dressed guests has now expanded to included not only three different theme-parks, but a Dapper Day Expo, featuring original clothing designers, a dance floor to learn swing, and a wet shave stand for that pristine cut.

Although The Happiest Place On Earth has not officially sanctioned the dashing affair, on every Dapper Day guests are treated with Mickey Mouse walking around in his Dapper Dans ensemble (the barbershop quartet outfit from Main Street). Discounted rates for participants at rooms in Disney-hotels are also available.

Despite these small signs of acknowledgement to Dapper devotees, it maybe unlikely that this fast expanding meetup will ever receive the seal-of-approval due to the park’s strict rules on adults not wearing costumes. Rules for inclusion into the soirée explicitly exclude cosplay or costuming, but that doesn’t mean that people don’t try to push the mouse-eared envelope.

The closest any grown-Disney fanatic will have to feeling like a prince or princess at the park is through dapper attire. As the event continues to flourish, it somehow has maintained its ability to provide charm and connectivity among the Disney community. Suave supporters will see the next Dapper Day taking over Disneyland in Anaheim on Sunday, April 23, 2017.

Published

on

 in Hall H at San Diego Comic-Con, Rick Riordan and Disney+ revealed that Daniel Diemer (“Under the Bridge”) will star as fan-favorite cyclops “Tyson” in the epic adventure series “Percy Jackson and the Olympians.” Diemer joins Walker Scobell (Percy Jackson), Leah Sava Jeffries (Annabeth Chase) and Aryan Simhadri (Grover Underwood) as a series regular. The Disney+ Original series from Disney Branded Television and 20th Television will start filming its second season next week in Vancouver.

Season two of “Percy Jackson and the Olympians” is based on the second installment of Disney Hyperion’s best-selling book series titled “The Sea of Monsters” by award-winning author Rick Riordan. In the new season, Percy Jackson returns to Camp Half-Blood one year later to find his world turned upside down. His friendship with Annabeth is changing, he learns he has a cyclops for a brother, Grover has gone missing, and camp is under siege from the forces of Kronos. Percy’s journey to set things right will take him off the map and into the deadly Sea of Monsters, where a secret fate awaits the son of Poseidon.

Diemer stars as Tyson – a young Cyclops who grew up all alone on the streets, and finds it difficult to survive in the human world.  Shy and awkward, with a heart almost as big as he is, Tyson soon discovers that Poseidon is his father, which means Percy Jackson is his half-brother… and that Tyson may have finally found a home. 

Diemer recently starred in the Hulu limited series “Under the Bridge” based off the critically acclaimed book of the same name and a tragic true story of a missing teen girl in Vancouver in 1997. He will next star in the indie “Thug” opposite Liam Neeson and Ron Perlman for director Hans Petter Moland. Daniel was recently seen as the lead in the indie “Supercell” opposite Alec Baldwin and Skeet Ulrich and the lead in the film “Little Brother” opposite Phil Ettinger and JK Simmons. Daniel can also be seen in the Netflix series “The Midnight Club” and recently starred as the male lead in the breakout hit Netflix feature “The Half Of It” from producer Anthony Bregman and director Alice Wu. He is a graduate of Victoria Academy of Dramatic Arts in Vancouver.

Created by Rick Riordan and Jonathan E. Steinberg, season two of “Percy Jackson and the Olympians” is executive produced by Steinberg and Dan Shotz alongside Rick Riordan, Rebecca Riordan, Craig Silverstein, The Gotham Group’s Ellen Goldsmith-Vein, Bert Salke, The Gotham Group’s Jeremy Bell and D.J.
