Nobody wants to get kicked out of Club 33 after spending years on the wait list and paying thousands for the membership but that’s exactly what can happen if you break the rules of Disneyland’s secret and exclusive hideaway.

Club 33 rules govern the behavior and actions of members of the private restaurant and bar above New Orleans Square at the Anaheim theme park, according to New York Magazine.

“Failure to comply with any of these rules can result in a formal warning,” according to New York Magazine. “And management has free rein to cancel any membership for any reason at any time.”

Disneyland has a few carrots that can be used before resorting to the stick.

Making it off the Club 33 membership waitlist can take years so most members are motivated to follow the rules and avoid expulsion once they get in.

Cost is another method of moderating the behavior of Club 33 members.

Depending on the membership level, a Club 33 membership can cost between $12,500 and $30,000 a year after an initiation fee that can range from $25,000 to $100,000, according to Business Insider.

But even at Club 33, rules can be broken and the consequences can be swift and irrevocable.

New York Magazine listed the five cardinal rules of Club 33.

1) Public intoxication

For decades, Club 33 was the only place where visitors could drink alcohol in Disneyland.

That changed in 2019 when Oga’s Cantina opened in Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge and since then alcohol sales have spread to other locations throughout the park.

One thing hasn’t changed over the years. Club 33 members can never become visibly intoxicated in the private club or anywhere in Disneyland and Disney California Adventure, according to New York Magazine.

2) Celebrity autographs

Movie stars, pop singers and other celebrities have been coming to Disneyland since the park opened in 1955.

Disneyland typically assigns guest relations representatives in their distinctive plaid vests to guide the celebrities through the park and keep fans at bay.

But Club 33 members are expected to restrain themselves when celebrities are in the club.

“Tom Hanks is a member. So is John Stamos,” according to New York Magazine. “It’s been rumored that Katy Perry and Taylor Swift’s feud started in the dining room.”

Club 33 members can never solicit celebrity autographs or selfies, according to New York Magazine.

3) Social media posts

Disneyland is the most Instagrammed place in the world, according to the Travel Channel.

Photography is technically allowed in Club 33 even if it’s strongly discouraged, according to New York Magazine.

But posting Club 33 photos to Instagram, TikTok or Facebook raises the infraction to another level.

“Any social media post considered to be ‘in poor taste’ by management can result in a formal warning,” according to New York Magazine.

4) Reselling merchandise

Club 33 has a small gift shop in the lobby that can be patronized by club members and their guests.

Plenty of Club 33 merchandise ends up on eBay from sweatshirts to mugs to Minnie ears. The exclusive swag can sell for hundreds and even thousands of dollars on the aftermarket.

Club 33 members are strictly prohibited from reselling official club merchandise, according to New York Magazine.

5) Club secrecy

The fifth rule is more of a “tacit understanding among members,” according to New York Magazine.

Like Las Vegas, what happens in Club 33 stays in Club 33. The secrecy, mystery and intrigue are part of Club 33’s appeal.

“It’s like Fight Club,” one Club 33 member told New York Magazine.

In other words: The first rule of Club 33 is you do not talk about Club 33.

At a minimum, violating the secrecy policy could activate Club 33’s ultimate behavior modification tool the ability to cancel any membership for “any reason at any time.”
