The hat itself is 100 feet tall. The summit of the Icon reaches 122 feet.

Head Measurements: The hat size is 605 7/8.

On Top of the Mouse: Mickey would have to be 350 feet tall if he were to wear this giant hat.

The Hat: The hat itself is 100 feet tall. The interior space equals nearly 60,000 cubic feet. It can hold 444,744 gallons of water. Six stars and two moons adorn the hat.

Paint Job: The hat will be painted with a custom technique called “chameleon paint” which shifts color as guests move around it. Painting the hat will require enough paint to cover 500 Cadillacs.

Mickey Ears: The Mickey ears feature a new special effect called “Light Ribbons,” which change color and sparkle with internal pixie dust lighting.

Holding it All Together: There are 13,493 bolts that hold the hat together; 26,986 washers; and 17,000 feet (or 57 football field) of underground utility piping.

The hat and ears sit atop a solid foundation that uses enough concrete to cover the length of a football field.

The hat weighs 156 tons.
