I was talking with a friend of mine who works at the Disneyland Gallery & Disneyana on Main St. and she said the Disney Gallery will have a cool exhibit to honor the 50th anniversary of the Enchanted Tiki Room!! It most likely will be right near the 50th ann. month. Right now, they have a train exhibit, next is a castle display, then probably the Tiki exhibit! Disneyland will most certainly be releasing some VERY cool merchandise as they did in 2008 for the 45th! I'll keep everyone posted on what I hear, event & merchandise wise! And if anyone else learns anything, please add to the thread.

I kicked myself for missing out in 2008. I won't be making that mistake again!
It's so nice to see Disney keeping the South Seas/Tiki atmosphere going.

More info on 50th Tiki room anniversary! Last week my castmember friend met Shag in the Disney Gallery who was chatting with the head of merchandising about potential Enchanted Tiki Room merchandise for the upcoming 50th! Also, the next Gallery display will definitly be castles, then a Fantasyland display, and then finally the 50th Tiki Room exhibit for Spring/Summer of 2013! I'm glad I got some more info to post about what should be a great celebration of our beloved Enchanted Tiki Room's 50th!

Awesome......I've loved the Disneyland Art Gallery for years.....I like the fact that they switch out the exhibits as often as they do and a Tiki Room exhibit will be a great exhibit....

Update on Tiki Room display: The castle display is now up at the Gallery and a cast member said that after castles is the Tiki Room exhibit, then a princess display after that. He said Disney didn't want to do a similar display too close together. If there is any other news I hear, I'll post.

As of right now, I've been told the Enchanted Tiki Room exhibit will take place after the current castle display. There won't be a princess display. And after the Tiki Room, there will be a Haunted Mansion exhibit! Yipee!

They made the anniversary during Southern California Passport blockout dates.

Excellent, thanks for the update! I'm keenly interested in seeing who the featured artist will be for the 50th (SHAG maybe?).

I posted earlier in this topic that yes, Shag is definitely creating Tiki Room 50th merchandise. I hope Kevin Kidney & Jody Daily are going to create some more goodies as well!

I saw one of the pictures Shag created for the anniversary. It shows a person holding a Dole Whip. There is no reference to Dole but the attorneys said he had to take it out of the picture. Shag said if he has to take it out, Disney can't have the picture. The attorneys gave in. Shag said it wouldn't be the Enchanted Tiki Room without a Dole Whip.
