Hi there, Debbie!
Thanks for popping in to ask me your question! I'd be pleased to discuss one of my favorite theme park hidden gems - Disney limited-edition popcorn buckets!
I just returned from a magical
Walt Disney World vacation. A refillable popcorn bucket is a must for my family, and we always look forward to checking out the latest designs. A few weeks ago, we picked up the current standard bucket, which features familiar friends like Moana, Tiana, and Simba. The Mickey Mouse pumpkin bucket you're referring to is adorable; From pictures online, I think it's the cutest Halloween-themed bucket I've ever seen. This item is exclusively sold to Guests attending
Mickey's Not-So-Scary Halloween Party, and typically with event-specific merchandise, a limited amount is available. In my experience, popular party souvenirs like this one are restocked each evening. They may run out as the night (and/or party season) progresses. If this is a must-have for you, I’d recommend snagging your bucket as soon as the party begins at 7 PM. Typically, specialty popcorn buckets are available at the carts in front of Cinderella Castle. I've also seen them at the cart in Liberty Square between
Liberty Tree Tavern and
The Hall of Presidents.
Best wishes on your frightfully fun mission! Before I
ghoul, I'll share some tips for having an
eerie-sistible evening.
*Temperatures can still feel like summer this time of year in Florida. Plan your outfit accordingly!
*It's difficult to experience all the offerings in one night. I like to prioritize Mickey's Boo-To-You Parade and the
Hocus Pocus Villains Spelltacular, which, for me, are the best parts of the event. Review the guide map and entertainment schedule when you enter
Magic Kingdom Park and decide on your must-boos!
*Most restaurants will cease normal operations after regular park hours. Plan to have dinner before 6 to maximize your time enjoying party activities rather than hunting for an open eatery.
*Speaking of snacks, consult the
Disney Parks Blog Foodie Guide to preview event-exclusive items and decide which treats you want to try.
I hope this has been helpful. Have a great time at Mickey's Not-So-Scary Halloween Party, and if there is anything else I can do to make your upcoming adventure even more magical, don't hesitate to reach out. Thanks again for visiting us, and we'll see ya real soon!
