Disney World's Holiday Popcorn Buckets Start Arriving November 6, Led by a Toy Story Gingerbread House and a Stitch Christmas Tree Sipper

Woody and Bo Peep are standing outside a gingerbread house, there is a Pizza Planet alien on the chimney, and the whole thing is full of popcorn. Walt Disney World's 2026 holiday novelties are out, and the first three go on sale this Friday, November 6, no party ticket required.

Disney shared the lineup through its Disney Eats account, and WDW News Today, Blog Mickey and Inside the Magic all carried the full list on the morning of November 4. Each one is capped at two per person, per transaction, and sold only while supplies last. Blog Mickey notes that Disney has not released prices yet.

Day guests, November 6

  • Toy Story Gingerbread House Bucket (new): select outdoor vending locations at Magic Kingdom and Disney's Hollywood Studios. Comes with popcorn. It is the only bucket sold in two parks.
  • Stitch Christmas Tree Sipper (new): comes with any fountain drink, and it is the one piece sold in all four parks.
  • Holiday Christmas Tree Truck Bucket: select outdoor vending locations at Disney's Animal Kingdom. Comes with popcorn.

The Stitch sipper has the widest reach of the lineup. Here is where Disney says it will be:

A sipper shaped like Stitch dressed as a green Christmas tree with a yellow star on top, colored ornament lights and a candy cane in his mouth, lying on fake snow among scattered candy canes, with a holiday print lanyard.

The Christmas Tree Truck may look familiar if you went to a party last year. WDW News Today lists it as "MVMCP-exclusive in 2025," and Blog Mickey says it debuted at last year's Mickey's Very Merry Christmas Party. This year it comes to Animal Kingdom, where anyone with a park ticket can buy one.

Party ticket required

The rest of the lineup is tied to the two holiday after-hours events. Disney Jollywood Nights starts November 7 at Hollywood Studios, and Mickey's Very Merry Christmas Party starts November 8 at Magic Kingdom.

  • Holiday Train Bucket (new), from November 8: select outdoor vending locations at Magic Kingdom, during Mickey's Very Merry Christmas Party only. Comes with popcorn.
  • Holiday Wreath Straw Clip (new), from November 8: Casey's Corner, during Mickey's Very Merry Christmas Party only.
  • Holiday Kermit Straw Clip, from November 7: Rosie's All-American Cafe and Catalina Eddie's, during Disney Jollywood Nights only. It is new to Walt Disney World, and WDW News Today says it debuted at Disneyland Resort in 2022.
  • The Bauble & Bright, from November 7: Tune-In Lounge, during Disney Jollywood Nights only. It is a cocktail of Teremana Blanco Tequila, Grand Marnier, white cranberry juice, glitter simple syrup and lime juice, topped with cranberries and poured into a souvenir cup for as long as supplies hold. Blog Mickey points out it was already listed in the Jollywood Nights food guide.

Both straw clips are an add-on to any non-alcoholic drink, not a drink of their own.
