We’ve also seen a list of ALL the treats coming to Disney World for the 50th anniversary, and now we’ve had a sneak peek at some of the new 50th anniversary popcorn buckets and a sipper coming out soon, as well as some unique drinks you’ll probably want to try!
We were invited to attend a media event in Disney World today to check out some of the new 50th anniversary items coming soon. Not only are there shiny new Mickey balloon popcorn buckets, there are also new Mickey and Minnie popcorn buckets with the two icons dressed in their 50th anniversary costumes!
New popcorn buckets!
Minnie shines in her EARidescent blue and purple dress with gold accents. There’s a gold bow on the back of her dress too! Just a note that this is a sipper and not a popcorn bucket!

And Mickey looks dapper in his 50th anniversary suit and shiny gold shoes.

The new Mickey balloon popcorn buckets come in colors of blue, red, gold, and green, and they have the 50th anniversary castle logo on the front, along with a gold lanyard for easy carrying purposes.

There’s also a new popcorn bucket exclusive to Disney’s Animal Kingdom, and it features scenes from the new daytime show, KiteTails.

And we can’t wait to try these super fun Fruit Punch Lemonade drinks that come with color-changing Fruit Punch Lemonade Bombs to change the color of the drink!
New Fruit Punch Lemonade
Even though they’re different colors, they’re all the same flavor of fruit punch lemonade. You can get a red Mickey, a blue Minnie, a green Donald, or a gold Pluto. These will be available around the parks and resorts!

The Mickey and Minnie popcorn buckets are so cute!
What are the odds these popcorn buckets will be available for at least 4-5 months… or will they be a quick sell out and gone???
Alyssa, I would expect some restocking over time. Of course, we won’t know for sure until we see it happen, so we’ll keep updating.
I so hope that they will remain available for the whole of the 18 months celebrations! As well as the lovely 50th balloons and all the other goodies!!!
I was there on October 1st and 2nd did not see any of the six new popcorn buckets – can these be purchased on line?
Tonya, popcorn buckets don’t typically appear on ShopDisney, but we’ll report if they do!
You absolutely rock AJ! We are learning so much from you!!!

Found Mickey Popcorn bucket at Disney Springs today right by were they sell the candy apple.
