Disneyland to dress Minnie and Mickey in Pride outfits
The TelegraphDisney will dress Mickey and Minnie Mouse in rainbow colours at its first ever “Pride Nite” as the company escalates its war with Ron DeSantis over Florida’s “Don’t Say Gay” bill. According to Disney, its favourite characters, including Mickey and Minnie Mouse, will wear special rainbow costumes at the June 13 event in its California theme park to celebrate LGBTQ culture. Those attending the after-hours Pride Month event will enjoy Pride-themed entertainment, specialty menu items, merchandise and more, according to Disney Parks Blog. The presumptive 2024 presidential candidate, Mr DeSantis has been at odds with Disney since it publicly condemned legislation that prohibits teachings about sexual orientation and gender identity in Florida primary schools.
