We’ve been eating ALL the treats, checking out the photo ops, and enjoying the amazing entertainment at EPCOT’s International Festival of the Arts this year.

We’ve also been looking at all of the cool festival merchandise and incredible pieces of art created by all of the featured artists. Not too long ago, we shared a first look at some new Mickey ears that are covered in some fantastic art inspired by the movie Up. And now, the designer Up ears are finally available in Disney World!

These new ears join the growing collection of designer Disney ears, including previous designs from Brett Iwan, BaubleBar, and THE BLONDS. If you’re a big fan of Up, you’ll absolutely love these gorgeous Up inspired ears from Darren Wilson. Wilson is actually the Principal Designer at Disney Creative Group and Disney Artist at Art of Disney.

These ears truly are a work of art. If you want to float off with a pair of these designer ears, you can find them in EPCOT at the Festival of the Arts Marketplace Booth near the Canada Pavilion for $48. If you stop by today, the artist will even be around to sign them at 5PM!
