In this post, we’ll focus on details released around merchandise.

Most notably, Disney will pause new product launches and limited-edition releases at Walt Disney World. Disney has also officially confirmed our earlier reporting on Pin Trading. Here’s the full update:

Merchandise Locations 

In merchandise locations throughout Walt Disney World Resort, Guests will continue to discover favorite Disney items, with some modifications to the shopping experience that will help us manage capacity and foster physical distancing.

New Product Launches: New collection product launches and limited-edition merchandise will not be available for in-person purchases at Walt Disney World Resort until further notice. As always, Guests can find these items on shopDisney, subject to availability.

Pin Trading: We will continue to offer Guests the opportunity to pin trade with Cast Members through the use of pin boards in select locations. Cast pin trading with lanyards will not be available at this time to maintain physical distancing.

Delivery Option: Package delivery to the front of our theme parks or to Disney Resort hotels will be suspended. However, shipping merchandise to Guests’ homes continues to be available.

Dressing Rooms: For the time being, dressing rooms will not be available.

Returns: In-person returns will be available upon the reopening of our merchandise locations.
