First off is the Musical Holiday Tin Premium Bucket, of COURSE! Not only does it look cute and carry your snacks or items; it plays real music! You can find it at a few locations: kiosks near the Hyperion Theater, the Animation Courtyard, or Hollywood Boulevard in Disney’s Hollywood Studios. If you want to snag it for your collection without Park admission, it’s also sold at the carts throughout Disney Springs.

We’ve already covered Walt Disney World’s new Musical Holiday Tin Premium Bucket in-depth, but it’s not the only festive corn carrier making its way to the Disney Parks just in time for Christmas!

Next, the Hyperion Theater and Animation Courtyard are also two of the spots to find our second bucket: a darling Christmas Tree for toys! The Toy Story Blocks Premium Bucket is available to Walt Disney World Guests for the first time, though Pixar Toy Story (1995) fanatics were able to bring it home last year over at the Disneyland Resort. Its charming exterior resembles a Christmas tree built from wooden blocks, and features characters like Woody and Buzz Lightyear, and along the sides. You can also purchase it in Hollywood Studios’ Toy Story Land, or at popcorn carts around Disney California Adventure. The Disney Parks’ Blog specifies that Disneyland’s version of the Blocks bucket for the 2022 holiday season lights up!

Then, hop over to Disney’s Animal Kingdom Park (DAK) to find the third and final holiday offering, the Gold Tree Bucket. The shiny metallic tree sports tiny Christmas lights as it’s trimmed by Mickey and Minnie Mouse wearing matching Santa suits! If you weren’t able to get your hands on it last year or want a second one to put in someone’s stocking, you can find it at the popcorn carts around DAK.

The Disneyland Resort has a similar bucket this year at the carts around both Parks: the Holiday Base Bucket, which looks like it’s a silver metallic Christmas Tree trimmed in ornaments shaped like hidden Mickeys!
