Disney Releases Exclusive NEW Popcorn Bucket in Magic Kingdom

The holidays are already poppin’!

Mickey’s Very Merry Christmas Party

Mickey’s Very Merry Christmas Party has begun at the Magic Kingdom, and as always the after-hours Holiday party offers a slew of exclusive offerings including entertainment, seasonal ride overlays, special character meet & greets, treats, and merchandise. Included in this, of course, is a NEW exclusive popcorn bucket!

This year’s oh-so-adorable popcorn bucket features the Big Cheese himself decked out in a full Christmas Elf costume, complete with a hat!

The bucket on sale

The new bucket is available for $27.95 at several of the Magic Kingdom’s outdoor dining cart locations during party hours. As usual for event-exclusive popcorn buckets, purchases of the Elf Mickey are limited to two per person, per transaction while supplies last. Also, as has become the norm for specially-shaped buckets, the popcorn was served in a box instead of inside Mickey itself.

During the debut night of 2024’s Mickey’s Very Merry Christmas Party, we were able to snag the bucket, and it’s just as adorable in hand as it appeared on Disney’s Instagram! One thing we need to warn you about is how long you might wait for these. Popcorn buckets can draw some of the longest lines. We waited a total of 45 minutes for the bucket, however, we hopped in line before the popcorn stands opened for the party, so when it did open, we only waited 5-10 minutes.

Mickey!

This Mickey as an Elf Popcorn Bucket is exclusive to Mickey’s Very Merry Christmas Party (on the East Coast) and will be available while supplies last. It’s also coming soon to Disneyland — more info on that here. Stay tuned to AllEars for more on the party.
