A dream collaboration built on hope and creativity
MrBeast teamed up with Disney and Make-A-Wish to create a magical Disneyland experience for 40 children battling critical illnesses, turning heartfelt wishes into unforgettable moments of joy and hope. “When I heard that I had a little bit of a backlog of wishes, I reached out to Disney and I was like, ‘Hey, can we do something big?’” MrBeast shared. His goal was simple, to give these kids a day they’d never forget. At Disneyland Hotel and Disney California Adventure, the creator hosted “Beast Games” with his friends and handed out props from his famous YouTube challenges.
