New Holiday Disney Gift Card Designs
Disney Gift Cards are a great way to pay for an upcoming Disney Parks trip, Disney cruise, or the latest merch. They can be used at Disneyland Resort, Walt Disney World Resort, Disney Cruise Line, or online. You can redeem the gift cards for everything from dining and shopping to booking resorts and buying theme park tickets.
Disney just announced four new Disney Gift Card designs for the holidays.
One shows Chip and Dale sitting on a green-and-red handcar. The chipmunks are holding candy canes and wearing green hats, and there’s a Christmas tree and a gift behind them. The other Disney Gift Card features Mickey Mouse riding a train and wearing a Santa hat. He’s holding a wrapped gift, and behind him is a wintry scene with snowflakes and decorated trees.
These new gift card designs can be found in World of Disney at Downtown Disney in Disneyland Resort, as well as throughout Walt Disney World Resort.
There’s also an online-only gift card design that you can send by mail to a loved one. The card features Mickey and Minnie happily ice skating and is available in set denominations ranging from $25 to $500.

Lastly, there’s a Pluto Holiday Digital Disney Gift Card with Pluto dressed up as a reindeer and surrounded by ornaments, presents, and snowflakes. You can send this gift card digitally to the recipient, and they can use it in person or online.

Disney Gift Card Wristlet
One of the best little-known tips for using a Disney Gift Card during a Disney California Adventure Park or EPCOT festival is getting the wristlet. This miniature Disney Gift Card functions exactly like the real thing, but it’s attached to a spiral wristlet you can wear. That way, every time you want to scan for a drink, small plate, or merch at a festival, you won’t have to dig for your wallet.
This year’s design for the 2026 Disney Festival of Holidays at Disney California Adventure shows The Three Caballeros wearing fiesta attire. It will be available during the festival, which runs from November 13, 2026, to January 6, 2027.
If you’re heading to EPCOT for the 2026 International Festival of the Holidays, which runs from November 27 to December 30, there’s a Mickey and Minnie holiday design for the wristlet.
