Here’s the ultimate guide to The Purple Wall at Walt Disney World!
What are the Walls of Disney?
First of all, what are the Walls of Disney? If you’re not really a user of Instagram or couldn’t give a damn about getting photos, I will completely forgive you for not knowing what the Walls of Disney are.
The Walls of Disney are not a definitive list. They are spots on a wall, door, or space across Walt Disney World that Disney fans on Instagram have deemed photo worthy.
There are many Disney walls across the theme parks including The Bubble Gum Wall, Moss Wall, Toothpaste Wall, Fichwa Fellow Wall etc.
Not just in Walt Disney World in Florida either, the Disney Wall craze has a long reach to Anaheim, Paris, and Asia too.
To find them you can check out the @wallsofdisney Instagram account or search the hashtag #wallsofdisney on Instagram and have a look! New walls come up all the time.

What does The Purple Wall mean?
The Purple Wall means quite literally a wall that is painted purple in Disney’s Magic Kingdom. It’s in the perfect location as it’s away from the crowds and has great lighting to bring out of the colour.
In recent years following its popularity, It has been revamped with lots of fun details being added. So, you can find different places on the wall to grab your perfect photo or selfie!
The saying “Meet me at The Purple Wall” has also been coined by Walt Disney World and they made a limited edition Magic Band with it on.
Ever since companies have been making Purple Wall-inspired merchandise with the slogan too.
Where is The Purple Wall in Walt Disney World?
The Purple Wall in Walt Disney World can be found at the entrance of Tomorrow Land from Main Street USA.
It’s under The People Mover and easiest to find if you walk through Tomorrowland Terrace up the ramp.
The Purple Wall opens at the same time as the park, so you don’t have to worry about it being closed off at any point in the day.
What can I do at The Purple Wall?
Take photos and have fun! There are so many ways to pose and get a good photo here. You’ll be surprised at how much time you spend doing so too.
Grab your Disney ears to sparkle a bit of magic or take a selfie. Lots of people like to take a picture of their Starbucks here too…Oh yeah, that’s a thing.
After you’ve got your photos, you could grab a bite to eat at the Tomorrowland Terrace (open seasonally), ride The People Mover, or head on over to Buzz Lightyear’s Space Ranger Spin!
The Purple Wall Instagram Account and Hashtag

It’s called @purplewallphotos with nearly 20k loyal fans checking out other Purple Wall photo creations! Why not give them a follow or submit a photo to be featured on the account?

The Purple Wall Slush
The Purple Wall even got its own signature slushy drink. It was released at the same as the revamped Purple Wall.
The Purple Wall Slush is taro tea with tapioca boba which makes the bright shade of purple colour. It comes topped with whipped cream and purple sprinkles.
Fans came in their droves to try out the new slushy drink at Walt Disney World. Of course, they had to pose with one against the newly revealed Purple Wall!
You can purchase this as a snack on your Disney Dining Plan for $5. When I visited during the Holiday Season, I was really disappointed to find out that this slush was not being sold anymore.
But, it may come back for the summer season, so keep a lookout on Disney websites. Apparently, there was also a limited edition “Meet Me At The Purple Wall” baseball cap released, and now Purple Wall Cotton Candy too!
