Private Membership
Club 33 is not publicly listed or marketed by Disney. Membership is by invitation, application, or waitlist. This guide covers publicly available information only. For membership enquiries, contact Disney’s Club 33 team directly through Disneyland’s official channels.
What Is Club 33?
Club 33 is Disneyland’s founding private club, opened in 1967 at 33 Royal Street in New Orleans Square — a location Walt Disney himself is said to have conceived as a corporate hospitality venue for Disneyland’s original sponsors. The club’s entrance is unmarked to the general public: a door set into the New Orleans Square streetscape, identifiable only to those who know it exists. Inside: private dining rooms with period décor, a full-service bar, event spaces, and a character that sits at the intersection of Old Hollywood glamour and Disney’s mid-century aesthetic.
Since its founding, Club 33 has become one of the most culturally resonant private clubs in the United States — not because of its facilities alone but because of its scarcity. Reported waitlists of 10–14 years (at certain periods), initiation fees estimated at $25,000–$50,000+, and annual dues estimated at $10,000–$30,000+ place Club 33 membership among the most exclusive and expensive private club relationships in the country. Disney has never officially confirmed pricing; all figures are from reported member accounts and media coverage.
The Real Estate Connection
Club 33 membership and Orange County residential real estate intersect in a specific buyer profile: the high-net-worth individual or family who holds or aspires to Club 33 membership and wants a primary or secondary residence that makes the membership’s casual-use value practical. A Club 33 membership held by someone living 45 minutes from Disneyland is a planned-visit asset. The same membership held by someone living 20 minutes away is a genuine lifestyle amenity — an after-dinner visit, a private lunch during a Disneyland school holiday, a member event without a logistical commitment that requires planning.
The residential logic mirrors the annual pass proximity argument exactly, but at a significantly higher investment level on both sides: the membership cost is $25,000–$50,000+ to initiate and $10,000–$30,000+ annually; the residential address that makes it fully useful starts at $1.5M in Anaheim Hills and reaches $5M+ in Coto de Caza or Newport Coast. Buyers who have made both investments want to maximise the return on the membership through residential proximity. Proximity thresholds guide →

The Complete Disneyland Lifestyle
The full expression of the Disneyland lifestyle from a residential position has three components that compound each other: a Dream Key annual pass (spontaneous park access), a Club 33 membership (private dining and exclusive resort access), and a home within 20–25 minutes that makes both practical rather than planned. The annual pass enables Tuesday evenings. The Club 33 membership enables private lunches, member events, and a fundamentally different quality of resort access. The residential address enables both without the friction of a long commute that converts spontaneous into scheduled.
Buyers who are assembling this combination — and they exist in meaningful numbers in Orange County’s high-income Disney-adjacent community — are the luxury buyer profile that Own Luxury Homes®’s 5% Performance Audit™ is designed to serve. A California DRE-licensed specialist who has placed Club 33 member buyers in Yorba Linda and Anaheim Hills knows which communities maximise the membership’s value, which Prop 13 tax considerations apply at the $2M–$5M price point, and which school district considerations apply to their children’s specific grade levels. That combination of knowledge is what the specialist introduction provides. Full luxury homes guide →

What is Club 33 at Disneyland?
Club 33 is Disneyland’s private members-only club, originally opened in 1967 and named after its address at 33 Royal Street in New Orleans Square. It is one of the most exclusive private dining and hospitality clubs in the world — accessible only to members and their guests, with a membership process that involves an application, invitation, or waitlist. Club 33’s amenities at Disneyland include private dining rooms, a full bar (a distinction in a park that has historically limited general alcohol service), exclusive event spaces, and access to member-only experiences throughout the resort. Disney has since expanded Club 33 to Walt Disney World (all four parks), Tokyo Disneyland, Shanghai Disneyland, and Disneyland Paris.
How much does Club 33 cost near Disneyland?
Disney has never officially published Club 33 membership pricing. Reported figures in media and member communities suggest initiation fees in the range of $25,000–$50,000+ for individual memberships, with annual dues of $10,000–$30,000+ depending on tier and year. Corporate memberships carry different structures. These figures are reported estimates — not Disney’s official pricing, which is communicated privately to applicants. Contact Disney’s Club 33 membership team directly for current pricing and availability. The combination of reported initiation and annual dues positions Club 33 among the most expensive private club memberships in the United States.
Which neighborhood is best for Club 33 members near Disneyland?
Club 33 members who want to maximise the membership’s casual-use value should live within 20–25 minutes of Disneyland Resort. The communities that best serve this profile: Yorba Linda premium sections ($1.5M–$3M+, PYLUSD A+, 20–28 min) for families who want top schools alongside Club 33 access. Anaheim Hills premium hilltop ($1.2M–$2.5M, 15–22 min) for the closest luxury address to the resort. Coto de Caza ($1.5M–$5M+, 30–40 min) for members who prioritise community prestige and accept a longer drive. Irvine’s Shady Canyon ($3M–$8M+, 28–35 min) for top California school access alongside Club 33 proximity.
Does Club 33 exist at Disney World?
Yes. Club 33 exists at all four Walt Disney World parks — Magic Kingdom, EPCOT, Hollywood Studios, and Animal Kingdom — as well as at Disneyland, Tokyo Disneyland, Shanghai Disneyland, and Disneyland Paris. Walt Disney World’s Club 33 locations opened progressively from 2012 onward, significantly expanding the club’s footprint beyond its Disneyland origin. Members at one Disney property may have access to other Club 33 locations depending on membership tier — verify current cross-property access terms directly with Disney. For real estate purposes, buyers near both Disney World and Disneyland who hold Club 33 memberships represent a distinct ultra-high-net-worth buyer profile that Own Luxury Homes® verifies specialists for in both Florida and California markets.

“The Club 33 buyer is the clearest example of a buyer whose residential decision and lifestyle investment are inseparable. They have spent $25,000–$50,000 to initiate a membership and $10,000–$30,000 per year to maintain it. They want to use it — not as a once-a-year planned event but as a regular part of their Disneyland lifestyle. The 20-minute residential address converts the Club 33 membership from an expensive planned-visit asset to a genuine lifestyle feature. The 40-minute address makes it a club they joined, not a club they live near. That difference matters when the membership is worth $50,000–$100,000 in total commitment. Helping this buyer find the residential address that makes the full lifestyle package work is what the 5% Performance Audit™ confirms before we make one introduction.”
