Hiya, Keri!
Welcome to planDisney! Whether you are honoring your own graduation or one of a fellow Mouseketeer, how wonderful that you plan on celebrating the milestone with a visit to The Most Magical Place on Earth! I do hope you'll honor the occasion with at least one celebratory table service meal. My personal favorite dining spots include
Yak & Yeti Restaurant,
Garden Grill Restaurant, and
Jungle Navigation Co. LTD Skipper Canteen. No matter where you choose to dine, be sure to denote your celebration when you check in!
As someone who insists on purchasing a
practically perfect souvenir to honor each magical vacation, I was delighted to research Walt Disney's World's graduation-specific ear offerings for you. Unfortunately, Keri, it appears that there were no generic graduation Mickey ears released as part of this year's graduation celebrations. While there were
Class of 2024 ears released earlier this year, the most recent reports indicate that those are no longer available online or in the theme parks. Of course, inventory can change at any time, so if the 2024 ears are something you are considering in lieu of the generic ears, it can't hurt to check various shops as you browse during your magical vacation.
I'm sure the information above was not what you were hoping to hear, Keri, so I want to assure you that all hope is not lost when it comes to marking this magical milestone at Walt Disney World Resort. Be sure to grab a celebration button from a Cast Member at your Disney Resort hotel or a Guest Relations location upon arrival. They will even personalize it for the occasion! Additionally,
Disney Springs recently shared several graduation-themed items available for purchase. Finally, if your heart was truly set on purchasing Mickey ears to commemorate the accomplishment (which I completely understand), you might consider purchasing a
plain black set of ears and having them creatively personalized by an artist at
Ye Olde Christmas Shoppe in Magic Kingdom Park.
I hope this information was helpful, Keri. If you have any additional questions before you depart, feel free to
stop back by. I'm always happy to help!
Thinking Happy Thoughts,
Lizzie
