Pluto’s Pumpkin Pursuit has returned to all three major guest areas of Disneyland Resort, inviting guests to search for 13 character-inspired pumpkins at Disneyland Park, Disney California Adventure, or the Downtown Disney District.
Pluto’s Pumpkin Pursuit 2026
Disney previously announced that the seasonal scavenger hunt would return to Disneyland Resort on August 21. Maps are available for $11.99 each and remain valid for redemption through October 31, 2026, or while supplies last.
Each map is valid for one keepsake. Guests do not have to finish the scavenger hunt to claim a keepsake. A purchased map can be returned to a designated redemption location whether or not all 13 pumpkins are found.
Disneyland Park, Disney California Adventure, and the Downtown Disney District each have a separate map with their own collection of pumpkins to discover. Participants search the location represented by their chosen map and place a matching sticker over each destination after spotting the corresponding pumpkin.
Although the destinations differ across the three maps, the same 13 pumpkin designs appear throughout the resort. The pumpkins are inspired by Mickey Mouse, Minnie Mouse, Pluto, Mrs. Potts, Goofy, Donald Duck, Daisy Duck, Tiana, Moana, Lilo and Stitch, Baymax, Pinocchio, and BB-8.
Though we won’t spoil the precise location of every pumpkin across Disneyland Resort, we’ll take a closer look at the sticker maps below, including what general areas guests can expect to spot Pluto’s pumpkins.

Pluto’s Pumpkin Pursuit Keepsakes
Each redeemed map comes with one small fabric character bag. Five designs are available, featuring Mickey Mouse, Minnie Mouse, Pluto, Goofy, or Stitch.
The bags resemble miniature soft-sided treat baskets, with the characters’ faces on the front and dimensional ears extending from the sides or top. Mickey, Minnie, Pluto, and Goofy use mostly black or orange fabric, while Stitch’s bag is blue with purple ears.
The keepsakes are distributed at random in a blind-box-style, meaning participants cannot select which character they receive.
Pluto’s Pumpkin Pursuit 2026 Pin – $24.99
A limited-edition Pluto’s Pumpkin Pursuit pin is also available as an additional souvenir for $24.99. The pin does not require the purchase or completion of a game card.
Its lower section resembles an orange pumpkin decorated with Pluto’s smiling face and black ears. A pile of colorful wrapped candy rises from the pumpkin, with the purple, green, orange, and black Pluto’s Pumpkin Pursuit 2026 logo positioned across the top.
Prize Redemption Locations
Pumpkin Pursuit maps can be purchased at a wide array of shops throughout Disneyland Resort. Redemption locations are more limited across the property, as noted for each map above. To recap, participants can redeem their map at the following locations:
- The Mad Hatter on Main Street, U.S.A. — Disneyland Park
- Elias & Co. — Disney California Adventure Park
