If you’ve followed us this week, you know we’ve been enjoying everything that Disney World’s 50th Anniversary Celebration has to offer.
LOTS of merchandise!
And it’s been A LOT. There’s a new character cavalcade, TWO new nighttime shows (Harmonious and Disney Enchantment), new park maps, new food, and more! But we’ve also really loved all the new 50th Anniversary merchandise we’ve seen.
Speaking of merchandise, one of our favorite souvenirs to buy are Disney mugs — they’re stylish AND functional. One of our favorite mug collections is the “Been There” series from Starbucks — there’s one for each park! If you also like that collection, we’ve got some big news — the 50th Anniversary “Been There” Starbucks mugs have officially arrived at Disney World!
Thanks to @batikdesign for sharing this photo of the Starbucks Hollywood Studios “Been There” 50th Mug!

We also spotted the Disney’s Animal Kingdom Starbucks “Been There” 50th Anniversary Mug at Creature Comforts. It’s got the Tree of Life on it…

…as well as a big “50,” along with some animals that might look familiar…
Happy 50th!
…like Simba! There are also lots of Animal Kingdom icons, like a Kilimanjaros Safari vehicle, Expedition Everest, and more.
Hey, Simba!
And of course, more elephants, and a DINOSAUR.
RAWR!
Here’s another look at this adorable mug!

What about MK and EPCOT????
Brandon, we’ll check! We haven’t seen them there yet, but our reporters will look into it.
I {LOVE} these cups & collect them 🙂 I bought the one from Animal Kingdom today & went to Magic Kingdom to purchase one but they haven’t released it or the Epcot 🙁 So I’m not sure if they are releasing them at a different time. I am glad to see Hollywood Studios did release theirs.
Any word yet?
Brandon, we still haven’t seen them! We’ll be checking again today.
The Magic Kingdom and Epcot 50th Anniversary Been There mugs were never released. There are earlier versions for these two parks, but not 50th Anniversary versions to match the recent Hollywood Studios and Animal Kingdom releases. There are other items like Magic Kingdom tote bags and Epcot pins to suggest they have the 50th Anniversary artwork for the two other mugs, but they haven’t hit the shelves so far. They aren’t rare or sold out either. As of November 1st, a month after the 50th anniversary, there is not a single image of either one online. Some park cast members have said they’ve seen them, but others admit they never arrived. Blame the supply chain problems?
