The Walt Disney Company's corporate headquarters is located in Burbank, California.
Disney's headquarters occupies the Frank G. Wells Building on the company's large studio lot in Burbank. The site is closely associated with Walt Disney Studios, the film and television production operations that grew from the animation business founded by Walt Disney and Roy O. Disney.
Disney began in 1923 as the Disney Brothers Cartoon Studio in Los Angeles. The company later moved its studio operations to Burbank in the 1940s, where the headquarters and major creative divisions remain. Burbank is therefore central to Disney's corporate identity, even though the company operates theme parks, television businesses, cruise ships, and offices around the world.
Anaheim is frequently confused with Disney's headquarters because Disneyland Resort is there. Orlando is similarly associated with Walt Disney World. Both are important resort locations, but neither is the company's corporate headquarters.
