    if you purchase a popcorn bucket, are the refills free or discounted?

    Hi Tari, and thanks for bringing your question to planDisney. Popcorn is one of my favorite theme park snacks, especially when you can buy a cute souvenir bucket to go with it!

    Disneyland doesn’t usually have free or discounted popcorn refills. However, if you’re a Magic Key holder, there are sometimes limited-time discounted refills with the purchase of a special popcorn bucket.

    I still love getting one of these fun souvenirs because it makes it easy to snack throughout the day while being able to keep everything contained during rides. My family also likes to reuse our popcorn buckets for movie nights at home and I’ve been known to incorporate them into my decor!

    While we’re on the topic, I wanted to share some of my popcorn-related must-dos! In Disneyland Park, don’t miss the little characters attached to the turners on the popcorn carts. They’re generally themed to each land, so it’s fun to find all the different ones.

    In Disney California Adventure Park, one of my favorite snack spots is Popcorn Scoop at the Cozy Cone Motel. Not only is there popcorn, but you can even add a flavor, like pickle or white cheddar. This is also where you can currently find the super cute Tow Mater popcorn bucket! To save a bit of time waiting in line, be sure to use mobile food ordering here, which is also a nice way to check the current flavor add-ins (since they rotate).

    I hope you enjoy lots of yummy snacks during your next visit to the Happiest Place on Earth! If you have any other questions, we’d love to have you back at planDisney.
