Disney Just Released 2 NEW Souvenirs in the Parks (and You’re Gonna Love Them)

4 September 2026 at 16:17

When it comes to Disney souvenirs, food and beverage-related novelties like popcorn buckets, sippers, and the like have become some of the most in-demand keepsakes at the company’s resorts.

Coco sipper!

In early September, not one but two new novelty items dropped at the Disneyland Resort, just in time for the start of fall celebration season!

Let’s begin with the Coco Lantern Sipper!

Such a pretty sipper

The new sipper is designed to resemble a multi-colored lantern featuring Miguel, Mama Coco, Héctor Rivera, and Dante the dog, each of which spins, and the center carousel lights up in three glow patterns: slow pulse, quick pulse, and constant glow. The color explosion continues with a yellow straw and a vibrant lanyard. This $30.99 sipper includes a Coca-Cola bottled beverage at the time of purchase.

This sipper is limited to two per person, per transaction, and no discounts can be applied. It can be found at Rancho del Zocalo Restaurante & Ship to Shore Marketplace at Disneyland Park, and at Paradise Garden Grill at Disney California Adventure Park.

NEW LOOK: You Won’t Believe What’s Coming to Disney’s ‘Coco’ Ride

15 August 2026 at 22:43

Coco fans have been having a GREAT weekend so far, all thanks to D23: The Ultimate Disney Fan Event!

We’re live from the event all weekend, bringing you all the latest news that Disney announces. Last night, Disney gave us news about Coco 2 in the works, and now, they’ve just revealed more about the new Coco ride coming to Disneyland Resort!

Planning guide for the ultimate Disney vacation

First, Disney told us a little more about the ride and about how it will show how music connects us all, as well as about how the love of family spans generations. We also know that the timeline of the ride will take us to about a year after the first Coco movie.

Miguel will be thinking back about the incredible journey he took in that film. You will enter the ride from a museum dedicated to the music of Miguel’s great-great grandfather, Héctor Rivera. You’ll then get into a boat where you will travel through Miguel’s memories of his time in the land of the dead. We also learned that the ride will not have a height requirement, so EVERYONE can ride.

This ride will have you stepping into the vibrant world of Coco, where you will spot characters like Miguel, Dante, Héctor, and more. The ride will highlight everything we love about Coco, the music, the Mexican culture, and family.

Disney has said that the new ride will “be filled with the characters – – and music! – – you know and love from the beloved movie. We also know the ride will take inspiration from classics like Haunted Mansion and Pirates of the Caribbean, and that the skeletal cast of characters will come to life in a big way, thanks to Audio-Animatronics technology. The new ride will be near Paradise Gardens Park and Pixar Pier in areas that are predominantly backstage at this time. Construction is already well underway on the ride.
