Disney Store recently celebrated the launch of its first redesigned interactive store with a grand opening event at The Shops at Montebello complex in Montebello, California. The Montebello store is the first of 20 newly designed Disney Store locations that will open across major markets in the United States and Europe in 2010.
Among the new attractions of the redesigned store is the Disney-Pixar Cars Ridemakerz experience which lets kids build toy custom cars inside of Disney Store. The store also includes the Disney Princess Magical Mirror. A Disney Princess character appears in the mirror with the wave of a magic wand. The redesigned stores also feature theaters, magical trees and pixie dust trails.
Disney Store executives, stars from the upcoming Disney Channel Original Movie Camp Rock 2: The Final Jam and characters from Disney-Pixar's blockbuster film franchise Toy Story joined the festivities and greeted Disney fans. Camp Rock 2 cast mates Anna Maria Perez de Tagle and Chloe Bridges are pictured below.
The newly-designed Disney Store is scheduled to open in the United States this year at the following locations The Shops at Mission Viejo in San Diego,
Disney Store on North State Street in Chicago, Freehold Raceway Mall in Freehold, NJ and the NorthPark Center in Dallas. Other locations to feature the new Disney Store design opening this year include: Roosevelt Field Mall in Garden City, NY; Santa Monica Place in Santa Monica, CA; International Plaza in Tampa, FL; Fashion Valley in San Diego, CA; Disney Store in Union Square in San Francisco, CA; and a two-story Disney Store in Times Square in November.
