When you’re visiting Walt Disney World, it’s hard not to think of the famous mouse that started it all! Mickey Mouse is the true original, and this iconic character is turning 90 in just a few days. To celebrate his upcoming milestone, here’s a list of everywhere you can find the Big Cheese around the Walt Disney World Resort.

Magic Kingdom:
Festival of Fantasy Parade

Each day at 2:00 p.m., guests gather in Magic Kingdom to experience the colorful and musical Festival of Fantasy Parade. Featuring detailed floats with an array of popular Disney characters, this event has become a must-do for Walt Disney World guests! For the big finale, Mickey and Minnie end the parade in their own float waving to the people of the Magic Kingdom.

Mickey’s PhilarMagic

Mickey’s concert orchestra ends up out of control when Donald stumbles upon conductor’s baton and decides to try on Mickey’s sorcerer hat. Donald and the audience are taken on a musical 3D adventure through some of Disney’s most classic movie scenes and songs, all while searching for the missing sorcerer hat along the way. Mickey saves the day once the hat is retrieved by calming the orchestra, ending the show with a bang!

Mickey’s Royal Friendship Faire

This live stage show happens daily in front of Cinderella Castle. Mickey’s Royal Friendship Faire stars Mickey, Minnie, Goofy, Donald and Daisy along with a few other special Disney pals, all singing and dancing in celebration!

Mickey’s appearance on this classic Tomorrowland attraction is so quick, you just might miss it! After traveling past the model of Walt Disney’s original Epcot idea (the Experimental Prototype Community of Tomorrow), the narrator mentions Mickey’s Star Traders as you peep down into the store from above. Mickey pipes in at the last minute claiming the store is “out of this world!”

This Mickey sighting is one of the most clever of them all! Within the Harambe market area, you’ll notice a Mickey Mouse waving painted on the wall along with the words “Fichwa! Fellow.” The word “Fichwa” means “hidden” in Swahili, making this sighting the ultimate Hidden Mickey!

Hidden Mickeys

The ultimate way to find Mickey Mouse around the theme parks is through Hidden Mickeys! There are over 1,200 hidden within Walt Disney World, so chances are if something resembles Mickey, it’s probably on purpose. It’s fun to keep an eye out for the famous mouse throughout the parks!

Mickey Mouse is the one that started it all, so it only makes sense that he can be found in so many places around the Most Magical Place on Earth. 2019 will bring even more Mickey experiences to the parks, including the all-new Mickey’s Runaway Railway attraction opening in Disney’s Hollywood Studios. Next time you visit Walt Disney World, be sure to take in all of the Mickey-filed moments of your vacation!
