Shanghai Castle on Mickey Ears

This commemorative pin features the iconic Shanghai Disney Resort castle silhouette artfully integrated into the shape of Mickey Mouse ears. Released in 2016 to celebrate the Grand Opening of the Shanghai Disney Resort, this design serves as a significant milestone in Disney parks history. The Shanghai Disneyland castle, known as the Enchanted Storybook Castle, is the tallest of all Disney castles and uniquely honors all the Disney princesses rather than just one.

The design is clean and elegant, focusing on the architectural grandeur of the resort's centerpiece. Collectors frequently target this pin due to its historical importance as a souvenir from the resort's inaugural year. It stands as a testament to the international growth of the Disney brand and the massive scale of the Shanghai site. The pin captures the excitement of the 2016 opening event for guests who were able to visit during the resort's launch. It remains a staple for completionists who focus on park grand opening memorabilia and castle-themed collections.
