From 18 April, Munich will welcome the premiere of the Disney 100: in the Small Olympic Hall and The Charles Hotel, a Rocco Forte Hotel, is the perfect base to experience all the magic of Disney.

Walt Disney’s stories have been captivating people all over the world since 1923. This year, an exhibition celebrating the 100th anniversary of Walt Disney is going on an international tour. It will have its world premiere in Philadelphia in the USA in February and then come to Munich before arriving in London in autumn 2023.

This exhibition marks the first time Disney will have opened its treasure trove to showcase hundreds of extraordinary objects, including more than 250 rarely shown original artworks and artefacts, costumes, props and other memorabilia.

Disney will also offer insights into the creation of its most popular characters, films, shows and attractions from Disneyland to Walt Disney World.

It will be a true highlight for Disney fans of all ages, who will now be able to find out more about their favourite Disney character, from Mary Poppins and Captain Jack Sparrow to Nemo and many other animated characters.

Anyone looking to maximise the all-round Disney experience should not miss the concert dedicated to Disney’s 100th anniversary on 22 April in the Olympic Hall.

Disney100 – The Concert and the Hollywood Sound Orchestra will embark on a grand tour of Germany, Austria and Switzerland in 2023, taking audiences on a journey through the most beautiful soundtracks in Disney’s film history.

Many of the melodies and songs have won Oscars and the songs from The Jungle Book, The Lion King and Beauty and the Beast are guaranteed to cause goosebumps.

The Olympic Park is only a 15-minute taxi ride from the centrally located Charles Hotel, or an approximately 25-minute journey by public transport. The hotel’s concierge team can organize VIP or flexible visitor tickets for its guests so that they don’t have to queue and can enter Disney’s dream world exhibition directly.

Returning from the exhibition, guests of all ages can enjoy a Mickey inspired afternoon coffee with a small decorative cake that features Minnie’s trademark dots and bow.

Devoted Disney fans should not miss a trip to what has become known as the “Disney Castle”: Neuschwanstein Castle in Hohenschwangau. The castle, which was built in the 19th century, was the creation of the megalomaniac King of Bavaria, Ludwig II, who intended the building to realise his dream of a real-life fairytale castle. Walt Disney, who himself had a soft spot for idyllic depictions and pomp, was so impressed by the gigantic property that he incorporated it almost true to life into his next two films, Cinderella and Sleeping Beauty. He also chose the silhouette of the castle as the logo for his production company and had his own version of Neuschwanstein built in every Disney Park.

The Castle of the Fairytale King in the picturesque Ammer Mountains can be reached in less than 2 hours by hire car or private driver, which the concierge team at The Charles Hotel will be happy to organise for you, together with admission tickets.
