Welcome to planDisney, Kaitlyn!
I also attended
Mickey's Very Merry Christmas Party earlier this month and was delighted by the cookies, characters, entertainment, and attraction overlays. I didn't think it was possible for Magic Kingdom Park to feel even more magical, but the snow falling on Main Street, U.S.A. felt like an extra sprinkle of pixie dust. As I told my husband, while this was my first time attending Mickey's Very Merry Christmas Party, it definitely won't be my last!
Some of the most popular aspects of specially ticketed events at Walt Disney World Resort are the event-exclusive offerings that include entertainment, special menu items, and as you mentioned, exclusive merchandise. The fun, seasonal designs of the items available for Guests of holiday parties make them highly sought after. I attended
Disney Jollywood Nights in November and was amazed by the length of the merchandise line throughout the night! This popularity and limited inventory of event-exclusive items mean that, unfortunately, merchandise often sells out as you experienced.
Because I know how disappointing it can be to miss out on an item you had your heart set on, I reached out to a Cast Member with your question, Kaitlyn. He informed me that Mickey's Very Merry Christmas Party merchandise is exclusively sold at the event, so Guests are unable to order items online or over the phone at this time - even if they previously attended the party.
I'm sure this is not what you were hoping to hear, so I did want to remind you that there are
plenty of items available online that will help you celebrate the most wonderful time of the year in the spirit of The Most Magical Place on Earth. While they are not the event-exclusive offerings, you'll find more of a variety of items and designs available than was the case at the Christmas party.
I ho-ho-hope you have a Merry Christmas and that you'll
come see us again at planDisney as you prepare for your next visit to The Most Magical Place on Earth!
Thinking Happy Thoughts,
Lizzie
