Minnie Mouse 2022 Virtual Polka Dot Retreat

In celebration of National Polka Dot Day, Disney-owned Instagram account Minnie Style is hosting a series of virtual sessions inspired by the polka dot-loving character Minnie Mouse.

Called 2022 Virtual Polka Dot Retreat, this online event will be led by a roster of talents who encompass Minnie’s fashionable, fun, and bold personality. Kicking off on Monday, January 31st, and ending on Friday, February 4th, this week-long lineup of Instagram live sessions will showcase what it means to be “Positively Minnie” through fun and uplifting programming that will leave participants feeling inspired.

Each day, one inspiring female guest will host an Instagram live session on @MinnieStyle for 10 to 15 minutes to talk about a variety of topics, such as career, fashion, friendship, business, and body positivity. To join the live conversation, fans from around the world can tune in @MinnieStyle on Instagram starting at 1 p.m. ET. Daily replays will also be available on @MinnieStyle following each session.

The event’s inaugural Instagram live session will feature Aysha Harun who will share her personal journey and how she empowered her life by following her passion and becoming a full-time content creator. She’s also set to speak about all things career and finance, including tips on budgeting, saving with purpose, and the importance of enjoying life.

Below is the full schedule of the 2022 Virtual Polka Dot Retreat, complete with the featured speaker for each day:

  • Monday, January 31: Aysha Harun (Focusing on Empowering Your Life)
  • Tuesday, February 1: Rae Hersey (Focusing on Styling)
  • Wednesday, February 2: Marisa Meizz (Focusing on Forging Good Friendships)
  • Thursday, February 3: Loria Stern (Focusing on Turning a Passion into a Business)
  • Friday, February 4: Kellie Brown (Focusing on the Journey to Self-Love)

National Polka Dot Day is celebrated every January 22nd of the year. And because Minnie Mouse is known for wearing a red dress with white polka dots, and often has a matching bow, the holiday has also been used to celebrate the character since 2016. In 2019, Disney launched Minnie Style so fans can celebrate National Polka Dot Day in their best Minnie Mouse attire.
