The sweepstakes and exclusive Mickey and the Roadster Racers custom content piece will air on Disney Channel and Disney Junior with special appearances by Disney characters and the 2018 Honda Odyssey minivan.

The MINNIE VAN is a unique collaboration between Honda and Disney-ABC to create a one-of-a-kind minivan inspired by Minnie Mouse; a truly custom creation that everyone in the family will love getting to see. For this exclusive display, one all-new Honda Odyssey was transformed through a pink-polka dot design inspired by Minnie's iconic style, including her oversized bow and highly recognizable ears perched atop the vehicle.

The MINNIE VAN will be on display for fans July 14-16 at the D23 Expo. It will be a part of the "Minnie's Style: The Fashion House of Minnie Mouse" display presented by the Odyssey, showcasing a selection of Minnie's iconic dresses and accessories from throughout the years.

To introduce the 2018 Honda Odyssey to families across America, Honda's partnership with Disney-ABC also features the "Disney Unlock the Magic Sweepstakes," with one lucky winner receiving a grand prize vacation to Disneyland Resort, plus an all-new 2018 Honda Odyssey. The campaign includes exclusive content that will feature the Odyssey minivan alongside Mickey Mouse, his pals and their personalized transforming vehicles from Disney Junior's hit animated series Mickey and the Roadster Racers.
