Hundreds of guests lined up outside at Downtown Disney on June 6, 2014, for the grand opening of the new Marketplace Co Op that took the place of Team Mickey. Back in November, it was announced the Marketplace Co Op would be coming and bringing retro merchandise with it.
It did not disappoint and within mere minutes of its opening, Doctor Disney had already given forth plenty to the The Walt Disney Company.
Steven Miller and Darcy Clark from the Disney Parks Blog were there and a whole host of others. It was great to be there as well because this is going to be an incredible shopping location and actually…it already is.
Oh, and there was a special guest there for the grand opening too. The one…the only…Mr…Mickey…Mouse!
The Marketplace Co Op is going to serve as a testing space for new Disney retail shops, concepts, products, and more. Word is…if one of the locations does really well, it will end up with its own merchandise location as Disney Springs continues to develop.
