Time Out says

A queen is never late… so the upcoming third installment of Princess Diaries is right on time. (Meanwhile, the first film is celebrating its 25th anniversary—feel old yet?) In the meantime, you can feel like a royal at this D23 pop-up, an immersive walk-through experience at the Doheny Mansion—which played the role of the Genovian Consulate in the movie. The historic home is located on the campus of Mount Saint Mary’s University, and while you can normally take regular, non-Disney tours of the mansion, photos are typically never allowed. The Genovian Pop-Up, on the other hand, will be full of themed photo ops. Visit the parlor where Anne Hathaway’s Mia first met Julie Andrews’s Queen Clarice (shut up!), the rooms where her princess lessons were held and—the pièce de résistance—the ballroom where Mia accepted her crown. The rooms will be filled with furnishings and decor from the film, as well as tiaras, jewels, costumes and props used in the first and second Princess Diaries.

Tickets go on sale on Friday, May 15, at 10am and cost $78 for general admission. You’ll just need to register for a D23 membership first (which is free, unless you want to spring for a Gold Membership and in turn receive a $10 discount on tickets for the pop-up). Besides access to the experience, your ticket comes with a junk journaling kit modeled after Mia’s diary, complete with themed stickers. The millennial nostalgia is strong with this one, so join the royal engagement before it sells out.
