Tonight at Mickey's Very Merry Christmas Party, Disney is debuting a festive new collectible—the Mickey Elf Popcorn Bucket.

This holiday-themed bucket features Mickey dressed as an elf, complete with a green outfit, striped leggings, and a cheerful red-and-white hat adorned with a snow-white pom-pom. In one hand, Mickey holds a neatly wrapped gift.

The Mickey Elf Bucket is expected to be a top item for collectors this season, following in the footsteps of past party-exclusive merchandise that drew strong demand. This bucket’s charming design is perfect for fans looking to add a bit of holiday magic to their Disney collection.

Here’s what you need to know if you’re planning to pick one up:

  • Exclusive to Mickey’s Very Merry Christmas Party: This popcorn bucket will only be available to guests attending the party, making it a unique memento for those celebrating the holidays at Magic Kingdom.
  • Where to Find It: Disney hasn’t shared specific locations yet, but typically, these seasonal buckets are available at select popcorn carts around the park. Look for lines near popular snack locations, as these tend to be hot spots for party exclusives.
  • Limited Stock: Based on past holiday parties, these buckets are likely to sell quickly. Arriving early in the evening may increase your chances of snagging one before they sell out.

Sure, but he’s Elton John. Still an A-lister.

I realized today that Elton John’s appearance at the Christmas tapings wasn’t an attempt to boost the performer lineup for the sake of providing an enhanced lineup. They’re hyping the documentary on D+. *Sigh*

Jollywood is missing something. It just didn’t feel like a party like MVMCP does. We couldn’t quite put our finger on what it was, but something just wasn’t clicking. And the fireworks were super meh.

We’ve gone many times but felt MVMCP was exceptional this year. Perhaps my memory is bad but it felt like lots more streetmosphere, they were generous with the cookies, there were low ride wait times, and overall it was just so much fun. Parade and fireworks are always top tier. Truly a trip highlight. Can’t say the same for Jollywood though. We couldn’t believe the same park put these two events together. For all the warmth and liveliness of MVMCP, JN could not be more opposite. Outside of the Muppets show, everything seemed very half baked. The skating show was just…not it. The fireworks show is not good either. And for anything else happening, it all seemed tucked away and you had to go search for it. I’ve heard other people really like JN this year, so not sure if we just hit a bad night or this just isn’t our cup of tea? We wanted to like it, but just fail to see the value here. MVMCP is where it’s at!!

It’s one of the main reasons to attend the party! If you go again, I would make a point of watching it properly—ideally from Main Street so that you experience the “snow”.

Anecdotal: we attended our first ever Mickey’s Very Merry Christmas Party on Thursday. One thing that surprised me was that the “free” cookies were legit good. And the hot cocoa was decent. The fireworks were awesome, with a jaw-dropping finale. Caught part of the parade in passing. Rode Big Thunder many times, Tron 3 times, Tiana’s twice, Jingle Cruise, and Space Mountain.

We need a detailed history of the decisions that led to the construction of Communicore Hall. It would be fascinating.

I noticed they didn't put the wreaths on the entrance signs this year.

Awareness of bare walls is the first step to enlightenment.

Just got a survey that included questions about the holiday decorations at Epcot and I let them know alllll about how much they were lacking

Oh, look, someone at Disney ran to Home Depot and spent around 200 bucks! Cute. Maybe next year we can get a few strands of real lights held up with command hooks. Once again, I cannot believe people are actually praising their pathetic, half baked efforts.

It was definitely a tribute to that, it used the same spiel that Walter Cronkite used to say during it

Temporary apology for removing the Peace on Earth fireworks tag?
