All eight Disney World hotel holiday pins spotted so far cost $199.92 together. Iago from Aladdin got his own sleigh, and some holiday shirts cost more than last year's.
Disney World's 2026 hotel holiday pins are out, and each one puts a Disney character in a sleigh. They're $24.99 apiece, so the eight spotted so far add up to $199.92.
WDW News Today rounded up the pins Tuesday, Nov. 3, along with new Disney Vacation Club holiday gear and a Merry Menagerie collection at Disney's Animal Kingdom. Pin prices didn't move from 2025. Some of the shirts did.
More hotel pins are on the way, WDWNT said. Last year's lineup covered 19 hotels, so collectors chasing the full set should brace their wallets.
The strangest casting choice? Iago, the loudmouth parrot from Aladdin, rides the Animal Kingdom Lodge sleigh. Somewhere, Jafar is filing a complaint.
How much are the 2026 Disney World hotel holiday pins?
Every pin is $24.99, the same price as last year. This year's theme swaps 2025's snow globes for sleighs on sparkly snow, each with gifts that nod to the hotel.
Grand Floridian: Cinderella in a silver sleigh, with a tiny coach and Gus peeking out of a gift box
Contemporary: Mickey in a blue sleigh with a monorail design, plus one of the hotel's famous mural goats
Polynesian Village: Minnie in a floral dress, riding with a Dole Whip and a ukulele
Animal Kingdom Lodge: Iago waving from an orange sleigh full of African-style patterned gifts
BoardWalk: Scrooge McDuck with retro striped presents, one shaped like his money bags
Riviera: Lumiere at the reins of a glittering blue sleigh, next to a hatbox with the Riviera "R"
Pop Century: Lady from Lady and the Tramp, with gifts shaped like a doghouse, a bone and a bowling pin
Art of Animation: Simba standing on a royal blue sleigh, next to a drum with Rafiki's Simba drawing
Not spotted yet: Wilderness Lodge, Yacht Club, Beach Club, Old Key West and others from last year's list. Hotel holiday pins usually turn up in each resort's own gift shop.
What Disney Vacation Club holiday merch is out for 2026?
DVC's 2026 holiday collection is called Home for the Holidays, and most of it runs on a train theme. WDWNT found it at Screen Door General Store at Disney's BoardWalk.
Home for the Holidays zip-up: $69.99, dark green, with Mickey and Minnie in Santa hats on the back
Home for the Holidays T-shirt: $36.99, bright red, with Mickey in a Santa hat driving a train
'Tis the DVC Season crewneck: $59.99, white, with red and pink holiday embroidery
Home for the Holidays ornament: $29.99, with Pluto in reindeer antlers riding a train car
Home for the Holidays travel mug: $29.99, dark green, with characters riding train cars
The mug hides two fun park nods. Minnie's train car has an "it's a small world" design, and Donald and Daisy's car has a Space Mountain front.
Last year's DVC adult holiday tee was $32.99, so this year's shirt costs $4 more.
What Merry Menagerie merch is at Animal Kingdom?
The Merry Menagerie collection landed at Island Mercantile on Discovery Island. Most pieces are stamped 2026.
Ear headband: $38.99, light blue, with a fox on one ear, a penguin on the other and a detachable bow
Sweatshirt: $54.99, pastel blue, with two deer on the back over an orange and pink sky
T-shirt: $36.99, purple, with a parade of animals walking in front of the Tree of Life
Ornament: $26.99, with a shimmery Tree of Life, a deer, a fox, a penguin and an owl "flying" up top
Two limited-edition 2026 Merry Menagerie pins showed up a day earlier at Discovery Trading Company for $21.99 each. One of them is marked Passholder.
The tee and the pins each went up $2. The 2025 Merry Menagerie T-shirt was $34.99, and last year's limited-release pins were $19.99.
When does Merry Menagerie return in 2026?
Disney World's holiday season runs Nov. 13, 2026, through Jan. 6, 2027, and TouringPlans' refurbishment calendar lists Merry Menagerie returning Nov. 13.
Merry Menagerie is a roaming group of puppet arctic animals. Penguins, reindeer, foxes and polar bears wander Discovery Island between Island Mercantile and Riverside Depot with live musicians. It debuted in 2019.
The decorations are already up. Lantern-style deer, foxes, squirrels and birds now sit on the Riverside Depot and Island Mercantile roofs.
Artist Rob Kaz is also greeting guests inside Island Mercantile through Nov. 22, with his original artwork for sale there all season.
Holiday merch sells fast. If a specific pin matters to you, go early. Or just buy the $24.99 Iago pin and call it a holiday.
