Sailing with Disney is an amazing experience, and now we’re gonna give you a tip to make your trip even better! Many vacations — Disney-based or otherwise — can set you back a pretty penny. That makes finding FREE souvenirs extra special. If you’ve always wanted to walk — or swim — away from your Disney cruise experience with a free piece of memorable magic, you’re in luck!

One of our favorite pastimes at the Disney Parks around the world is collecting celebration buttons! These free gifts are buttons given to you by Disney Cast Members that let you celebrate birthdays, anniversaries, honeymoons, graduations, first visits, and ANY special occasion you can think of! If you’ve ever been to a Disney Park, chances are you’ve seen PLENTY of these being sported by guests. Well, as it turns out, you can get them on Disney cruise ships too!

Celebration Button

According to our personal experience and planDisney, there are complimentary celebration buttons at Guest Services on Disney Cruise Line ships!

Celebration Buttons

While Disney doesn’t guarantee all of the buttons, such as a “First Cruise” button, you can always get a general celebration button for any occasion.

According to planDisney, “You can also fill out a special request form online if you’d like your cruise team to celebrate an event with you. It might be fun to order something special from Onboard Gifts to say “bon voyage” for your first sailing, too!”
