And there is LOTS of look forward to on the special day. October 1st marks the debut of an 18-month celebration, the grand opening of Remy’s Ratatouille Adventure and La Crêperie de Paris in EPCOT (as well as some new Food and Wine Festival booths!), and new costumes for Mickey and Minnie. As you can imagine, it’s going to be a popular time to visit the parks! And if you’re hoping to join the fun, we’ve got an update you should know about.
Last week, some BRAND-new ears debuted in Disney World.
Karlie Kloss Designer Ears
They’re designed by supermodel Karlie Kloss, and they’re all about coding! And friends, they sold out fast. You needed a secret code to snag ’em (hint: it was CODE KLOSS), and they were all snatched up in no time. But if you’re looking for another way to get your hands on them, you’re in luck!
It’s been an interesting few months for Disneyland Paris!

It’s no secret that Disney World has a LOT of merch up for grabs.
