Why 8AM on July 19th Will Be a STRESSFUL Time for Disney Fans

Disney fans may be hard to impress nowadays, but there’s one thing that they’ll almost always go wild for — MERCHANDISE.

You’ve probably either heard the stories or experienced something similar yourself. The six-hour-long wait for a Figment popcorn bucket, the way the Emporium looked ransacked after the 50th anniversary merchandise dropped, and the way a Starbucks tumbler sold out within seconds several times last year. One item that Disney fans have to fight for online is the glowing Mickey pumpkin which typically comes around each Halloween season…but now there’s something NEW and we have a feeling it’s going to be just as popular (if not more) than that souvenir.

The Disney Store online just revealed some of its upcoming Halloween merchandise drops. That’s where we spotted the return of the Mickey Pumpkin souvenir AND the new Minnie Mouse Pumpkin! Disney has previously released a sneak peek at this and the two different sizes for the Mickey pumpkin, but now we know WHEN you can buy.

That’s right — Minnie is getting some love this Halloween season as Disney has finally decided to create one of these iconic pumpkins just for her. You can grab these super spooky items on July 19th, 2024 at 8AM PT. Mark those calendars, set those alarms — do what you gotta do!

You’ll want to be on your computer or phone ahead of time and refresh the Disney Store website right when that time hits. It can go quickly so we recommend logging in and having your card and shipping info saved. That way you can have an easier time checking out before they are gone!

Ready to visit the parks for Halloween? If you’re thinking about going to Mickey’s Not-So-Scary Halloween Party, be sure to grab those tickets soon! Tickets are still available for certain dates but eventually, they will disappear. Unfortunately, tickets for Oogie Boogie Bash at Disneyland Resort have completely sold out for 2024.
