It’s no surprise that special event professionals are drawn to vacations at the Walt Disney World Resort�. Around every turn at “The Happiest Place on Earth”� is a spark of creative inspiration, and a chance to observe world-class guest relations, Imagineering, and storytelling mastery.

Five Days with the Mouse to be a Better Event Planner takes a deep dive into ﬁve key aspects of professional event planning through lessons observed at Walt Disney World� which can be applied to virtually any special event.

Example observations:

Day One: Can you duplicate the impact of Cinderella Castle or the “hub-and-spoke” design of the Magic Kingdom� to create immersive guest environments?
Day Two: How do concepts like FASTPASS+� and MagicBands� help manage guest expectations while activating and elevating guest engagement?
Day Three: What event storytelling lessons can be observed on the Jungle Cruise� and how can your version of Hidden Mickeys reward loyal guests?
Day Four: What best practices in event sustainability can you pick up at your Walt Disney World Resort� hotel room as you design zero-waste events?
Day Five: What key accessibility lessons can be learned from Pirates of the Caribbean� and what can the design of EPCOT’s� Spaceship Earth teach about safety?

Put on some comfortable shoes and set off into a world of castles and queue lines that can inspire and inform everyday special event planning and industry professionalism.

Store Description

We first started out as ?The Paperback Exchange,? a chain of physical bookstores where we would part exchange your beloved books for new stories to transport you to faraway places. However, as shopping started to evolve to online shops and marketplaces, we bid our stores goodbye to become ?PBShop.? This transition has only allowed us to blossom as we now ship thousands of titles to book lovers across the globe. We pride ourselves in being a community of local book lovers which allows our passion and devotion to shine in everything we do. In 2020 we not only celebrated our 20th birthday but our 1st birthday as being completely employee owned after becoming an E.O.T in September 2019. We are proud to be different and embrace standing apart on a book mountain by working from a virtual inventory which allows us to provide thousands of books that may be difficult to get for your bookshelf or your studies. Working with a number of different suppliers allows us to explore other avenues such as puzzles, sheet music and even stationery so we really do have something for everyone. Life is about being versatile in all realms of existence. If this is your first visit or you are a returning customer, we would like to welcome you to the PBShop family, for there is no friend as loyal as a book. We are a company who put our customers at the centre of everything we do as we understand the importance of reading because once you learn to read, you will forever be free. There are a whole lot of things in this world of ours that we are yet to explore, which is why we will forever inspire curious minds.
