Disney World’s Christmas party opened Nov. 8 with a light-up train popcorn bucket for $35.99, a $110 pin box and a rack of party-only shirts, ears and ornaments. Here’s the price list.
Mickey’s Very Merry Christmas Party is back at Magic Kingdom, and so is the party-only shopping. The 2026 run opened on Sunday night, Nov. 8, and the most expensive party souvenir we found is a $110 pin box.
That’s a lot for pins. Party merch only sells to guests with a party ticket, so you buy it on your night or you pay eBay prices later.
What does the Holiday Train popcorn bucket cost?
The Holiday Train Popcorn Bucket costs $35.99 plus tax, and it comes filled with popcorn, according to WDWNT. It’s a party exclusive, sold at outdoor popcorn carts around Magic Kingdom during party hours.
And it does stuff. WDWNT says the bucket lights up, plays sounds and moves, with the on and off switch and a speaker on the bottom.
The design is a little red and green train with Mickey up top in a Santa hat. Pluto and a reindeer peek out of one window, and Minnie holds a gift addressed to “M.M.” in the other. Chip and Dale ride a handcar on the back, and the roof of the cab opens up for the popcorn.
There’s a limit of two per person, per transaction, while supplies last.
There’s also a Holiday Wreath Straw Clip. WDWNT lists it at $14.08 as an add-on with a soft drink at Casey’s Corner. It’s party-only too.
What is the $110 Very Merry Christmas Party souvenir?
It’s the Tiered Pin Box Set, Event Edition, at $110. Disney Food Blog flagged it in a headline on opening night, and WDWNT and MickeyBlog both list the price.
The box holds the four event pins plus a reindeer pin you can only get in the set. WDWNT says the reindeer pin is limited to 3,450. The other event pins run in bigger editions, from 10,950 for the elves pin up to 13,700 each for the Donald and Daisy and Chip and Dale pins.
If you only want one, each event pin sells by itself for $24.99.

Where do you buy Christmas party merch at Magic Kingdom?
The party collection sells at the Emporium on Main Street, U.S.A., and at Star Traders in Tomorrowland, per MickeyBlog.
Sales are limited to guests with a valid party ticket. WDWNT says some items could show up for day guests later in the season if there’s enough stock, but that’s a maybe.
The line moved fast on night one. A Disney Food Blog reporter said the merch line looked long but took about 10 minutes.
When is Mickey’s Very Merry Christmas Party 2026?
The party runs on select nights from Nov. 8 through Dec. 22, 2026, from 7 p.m. to midnight. Party guests can walk into Magic Kingdom starting at 4 p.m., and they don’t need a park reservation.
MickeyBlog lists adult tickets (ages 10 and up) at $189 to $229, depending on the night. Opening night sold out, and plenty of other dates are gone too.
Every party ticket still comes with a free ornament and a sweet treat. You pick those up at wristband distribution inside Monsters, Inc. Laugh Floor.
Is the party merch worth it?
Depends on what you collect. The bucket is the easy call if you like the light-up ones, since $35.99 with popcorn is about the going rate for a Disney novelty bucket now. The pin box is for the pin crowd, and honestly they already know if they’re buying it. If there’s one thing you want, y’know, hit the Emporium early.
