The Passholder-only set pairs Mickey and Pluto with a Cinderella Castle lantern, and Disney's own pin calendar caps it at 3,000. The $125 gift card stocking pins turned up in the same Hollywood Studios shop.
Walt Disney World's 2026 Annual Passholder holiday pin set is out, and it costs $49.99 for two pins. WDW News Today found it Sunday, Nov. 8, in the Dark Room section of Celebrity 5 & 10 on Hollywood Boulevard at Disney's Hollywood Studios.
One pin shows Mickey watching Pluto chew on a bone wrapped up for the holidays. The other is a red lantern with Cinderella Castle inside and the Walt Disney World wordmark at the base. The card reads "Happy Holidays" with "2026 Passholder" across the top.
Our math: two of the $24.99 limited edition pins on Disney's November calendar would cost $49.98. This set costs a penny more.
That calendar, posted by Disney Pins in late October, lists the set as "Ornament & Pin" with an edition size of 3,000. It also notes glitter, a ribbon and a resin dome, and an expected release date of Nov. 3, five days before WDWNT's post.
The same shop had all four holiday Disney Gift Card and pin sets. Each card needs at least $125 loaded to activate, and the matching stocking pin comes with it.
When we covered those cards Nov. 6, nobody had named a Disney World store selling them, and WDWNT's first sighting later that day was at Disneyland's Emporium. Now we know Celebrity 5 & 10 has them, too.
Here's a pin collector hunting the gift card pins at EPCOT:
What do the Disney gift card stocking pins look like?
Each card has its own art and a matching stocking pin, WDWNT said:
Mickey: in a Santa suit writing his list; the pin is a stocking with Mickey in a winter hat
Minnie: holding a wrapped gift; her stocking pin has Minnie in a red bow with a pom-pom
Stitch: in a green scarf and hat throwing a snowball; his stocking pin has Scrump peeking out the top
Jack Skellington: holding a snowflake; his pointed stocking pin shows Jack in a Santa hat
Every card has a "To" and "From" spot, so it's ready to gift. The $125 stays on the card for tickets, food and merch. The pin is the bonus.
How do you buy Disney World Passholder-exclusive merchandise?
Bring the pass. For this season's other Passholder merch, the Very Merry Christmas Party shirt and pin, Disney asks for a valid Annual Pass ID in the "Tickets and Passes" section of the My Disney Experience app plus a government-issued photo ID.
Disney also says Passholder merch is for personal use only, not resale, according to BlogMickey.
WDWNT didn't list a per-guest purchase limit for the pin set, and we didn't find one posted by Disney. With 3,000 made, don't count on it lasting until Christmas.
How rare is the 2026 Passholder holiday pin set?
Rarer than most of November's holiday pins. Here's how 3,000 stacks up against other limited editions on Disney's calendar:
Mini Jumbo Happy Holidays pin: 4,000, $44.99
Park bell pins for all four parks: 4,000 each, $24.99, Nov. 17
Ariel, Stitch, Marie and Maleficent pins: 5,000 each, $24.99, Nov. 10
EPCOT country pins for Norway, the United Kingdom, France and the USA: 2,000 each, $24.99, Nov. 27
Only the EPCOT country pins and the two chaser pins in a $140 box set come in smaller runs. Disney's calendar notes that artwork, dates and edition sizes can change.
What other Passholder exclusives are at Disney World for the holidays?
A Passholder pin seems to be hiding behind every tree this year. WDWNT's rundown of November releases lists three more Passholder pins:
Merry Menagerie pin: released Nov. 2
Jollywood Nights pin: sold at the party, starting Nov. 7
Festival of the Holidays pin: releasing Nov. 27
There's also a Passholder long-sleeve tee and pin sold only during Mickey's Very Merry Christmas Party at the Emporium, plus a Passholder Figment cup for EPCOT's Festival of the Holidays.
Want a pin without a pass? The gift card sets are open to everybody. They just cost $125 of future churros.
