There are plenty of ways to soak in the view at the end of Main Street, U.S.A. at Disneyland Paris. You can snap a photo with Le Château de la Belle au Bois Dormant, find a spot for the nighttime show, or just stand there for a moment and take it all in.
But there’s one experience that sets this park apart from almost every other Disney castle park in the world: a glass of champagne, enjoyed right on Main Street.
At Disneyland Park, guests can buy champagne from a cart near The Gibson Girl Ice Cream Parlour. For years, it’s been served in a collectible souvenir flute, and the combination of bubbly, branded glassware, and a fairytale castle in the background has made it a social media favorite.
It’s the kind of photo that fills social media feeds. And right now, that photo looks a little different.
The Souvenir Flutes Are Gone (For Now)
The famous souvenir flute isn’t currently available at Disneyland Park. Instead, champagne on Main Street is being served in what looks like a regular champagne glass.
DisneylandParisGuest shared the change on X, along with a photo of the new glass. “The Disneyland Park souvenir flutes have run out. This isn’t as Instagramable… but cheaper champagne.”

That last part is a nice consolation. Without the souvenir, a glass of the park’s Pierre Mignon Grande Réserve Brut is currently going for €18. When the collectible flute is available, the same champagne typically costs €20.
We haven’t seen any word from Disneyland Paris on when, or whether, the souvenir flutes will return.
Below is a Reddit post with a photo of what the flute typically looks like:
Can adults enjoy Disneyland Paris? Oh heck yes! €20 from the cart outside Gibson Girl, Main Street (yes, that includes champagne and the plastic flute to take home). Highly recommend enjoying by the castle around sunset. Bliss.

How a Glass Became an Icon
So why all the fuss over a flute? A lot of it comes down to presentation. The souvenir version arrives encased in a clear cylinder tube with Disneyland Paris branding on it, and holding it up in front of the castle makes for a picture that’s instantly recognizable.
The tradition has been going strong for a few years. Champagne returned to Main Street in 2022 for the resort’s 30th anniversary, served in a plastic souvenir flute featuring the anniversary logo. In 2023, Disney celebrated its centennial with a double-walled Disney100 collector’s flute.
The idea has even spread. When Hong Kong Disneyland marked its 20th anniversary, it offered its own champagne flute, a concept WDW News Today traced back to the plastic flutes that started on Main Street in Paris. Disney Adventure World also got in on the fun this year with a World of Frozen souvenir flute.
In other words, the Paris champagne flute isn’t just a drink. It’s a small piece of Disney park culture.
Why Castle Parks Were Built Dry
To understand why champagne on Main Street feels like such a treat, you have to go back to Walt Disney himself.
When Disneyland opened in 1955, Walt didn’t want alcohol sold in his park. He believed booze would ruin the family atmosphere he was trying to create. Disneyland was meant to feel different from the amusement parks of its day, a place where parents and kids could enjoy the same experiences together.
There was one notable exception. Club 33, a private club in New Orleans Square for Disney’s sponsors and VIPs, opened in 1967 and served alcohol from the start. Walt died in December 1966, months before it opened. For the general public, though, Disneyland stayed dry for decades.
When Magic Kingdom opened at Walt Disney World in 1971, it followed the same policy. The park didn’t begin serving alcohol until 2012.
Disneyland held out even longer. Oga’s Cantina in Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge became the first spot in the park to sell alcohol to the general public when it opened in 2019, and guests couldn’t carry those drinks out into the park. Blue Bayou followed in 2021, and alcohol later expanded to Disneyland’s table-service restaurants.
Even Paris started out dry. When the resort opened as Euro Disney in 1992, the park didn’t serve alcohol, but Disney reversed that policy in 1993 and allowed wine, which many European guests saw as a natural part of a meal.
That’s why grabbing a glass of champagne and wandering down Main Street, U.S.A. is still so rare. At Disneyland and Magic Kingdom, alcohol is generally limited to sit-down spots rather than a stroll in front of the castle.
Still Want Your Castle Toast?
Good news: the champagne itself is still being poured. Here’s how to make the most of it right now.
Find the cart. Champagne is sold from the cart near The Gibson Girl Ice Cream Parlour on Main Street, U.S.A.
Enjoy the savings. With the standard glass, you’ll pay €18 instead of the €20 you’d usually spend with the souvenir flute.
Frame your photo. The souvenir tube may be missing, but the castle isn’t going anywhere. Hold your glass up against Le Château de la Belle au Bois Dormant and you’ll still get a pretty great shot.
Look across the way. Disney Adventure World introduced a World of Frozen souvenir champagne flute earlier this year when the land opened. If you’re set on a collectible, it may be worth checking whether it’s still on offer during your visit.
Cheers to Whatever Comes Next
A plain glass might not be as Instagram-ready, but there’s still something special about sipping champagne at the end of Main Street, U.S.A. It’s an experience Walt’s original park didn’t offer for decades, and one you still can’t find at most Disney castle parks today.
We’ll be keeping an eye out for the souvenir flute’s return.
Now tell us: have you ever had champagne on Main Street at Disneyland Paris? Did you grab the souvenir flute, and is it still on your shelf at home? Share your photos or your favorite memory in the comments. We’d love to see your best castle toast!
