Starbucks Magic Kingdom Tumbler

The Disney-exclusive Starbucks Magic Kingdom tumbler is now available! We’ve already shared the tumblers for EPCOT, Animal Kingdom, and Hollywood Studios and I have to admit that the Magic Kingdom version might be my favorite. This tumbler is incredibly popular and has been flying off the shelves. So keep your eyes peeled!

Mickey’s sillouette is filled with classic Magic Kingdom icons like the statue of Walt Disney and Mickey, Jungle Cruise, Cinderella’s Castle, Peter Pan, Splash Mountain, hitchhiking ghosts from the Haunted Mansion, Tinkerbell, Dumbo, and Pirates of the Caribbean. Who wouldn’t want to drink their morning coffee from this adorable tumbler?

Can’t make it to the parks to pick these mugs up? We have a special arrangement with our friends at Shop Theme Parks where our fans can buy them.

The villainous Loki and some sinister cohorts invade the ship, and as a special guest at the gala, you’re in the middle of the ensuing action. In a whirlwind of excitement, you’ll witness heroic entrances by Thor, Black Panther, Spider-Man and Doctor Strange.

Disney Castle Wine Glasses

There’s nothing like toasting a celebration, or enjoying time with friends, with a little bit of Disney magic. These etched Disney Castle Wine Glasses by Clear Sky Glass Designs, are the posting toasting glasses to say cheers with for this Disney girl!

Stemless wine glasses are a favorite of mine, because I can use them for more than just wine, they make great water glasses at dinner time, or even for a small glass of milk in the morning. If there’s one thing I love, it’s versatility! These glasses come etched with a silhouette of the castle, with a Mickey icon in the middle. If wine glasses aren’t your preferred thing, they also offer mason jars, pilsners, and champagne flutes! The designer also offers free personalization on the glasses, for up to four words, that’s always a winner in my book!

You can order and have your Disney glasses personalized here!

Would you celebrate your next magical occasion with these Disney Castle Wine Glasses?

Southwest Unveils "Coco"-Themed Boeing 737-700 Aircraft Plus an Opportunity to Win a FREE Trip to the Movie Premiere

With the opening of Disney∙Pixar’s “Coco” just a little over a month away, Southwest Airlines has unveiled a “Coco” Themed Boeing 737-700 Aircraft. The aircraft will fly among the carrier’s nearly 100 destinations throughout the United States, Mexico, Central America, and the Caribbean through the end of 2017. Customers are encouraged to spot the “Coco” plane and share their photos using #CocoAndSouthwest.

“‘Coco’ is about a boy with big dreams and a strong connection to his family,” says Director Lee Unkrich. “These themes really lend themselves to teaming up with a company like Southwest. And after working for nearly six years to bring this story to life, we were all so excited to see ‘Coco’ on the side of an airplane.”

Southwest is also giving families the opportunity to enter for a chance to send their family on an adventure of a lifetime by entering the Southwest Family Flyaway sweepstakes between October 1-25, 2017, to win roundtrip air travel for four to Los Angeles; four tickets to the Disney∙Pixar “Coco” U.S. premiere and party on November 8, 2017; a two-night stay at the Hollywood Roosevelt Hotel in Hollywood; and a $1,000 VISA gift card for travel expenses. To view the full rules and to enter, visit familyflyaway.com.

Later this fall, the music of “Coco” will come to life onboard the “Coco” aircraft with a Live at 35® inflight concert performance by Anthony Gonzalez, who voices Miguel in the movie. Customers will experience the sounds and culture up-close and in-the-moment as Anthony sings a song from the upcoming film accompanied by a guitarist.
