The 2026 EPCOT International Festival of the Arts has officially started! We are here for the opening day of EPCOT‘s first festival of the year, and we are bringing you all along with us to experience everything. One of our first stops of the day was to snag the brand-new Figment Popcorn Bucket! We can’t get over how ADORABLE he is!!

It is no secret that we are huge Figment fans here at DFB, so the moment Disney released a sneak peek at the festival-exclusive popcorn bucket, we knew we needed to grab one!

If you are hoping to grab one of these popcorn buckets, too, we have some important information you need to know! You will need to place a Mobile Order for the popcorn bucket. This is the ONLY way to get the bucket; there won’t be a traditional line you can stand in to get one. We placed our Mobile Order at 5:20 AM this morning, and were able to grab an 11:05 AM order time. The area where you can grab your bucket doesn’t open until 11 AM, so that was one of the first times available. As of 12:30 PM, arrival windows were a bit over an hour out (the earliest we could get was 1:55 PM).

To place the Mobile Order, head to the My Disney Experience app and click on the hamburger menu in the bottom corner, then select “Order Food.” You will look for the option for “EPCOT Souvenir Release.” Select an arrival window, choose your quantity (guests are limited to one order per day and a max of 2 popcorn buckets per order). Pay for your order, then wait for your arrival window. Each bucket costs $29 and comes with colored popcorn.

Once your arrival window opens, head to the Odyssey building, located between Test Track and the Mexico Pavilion. Tap the “I’m Here, Prepare My Order” button, then head into the queue once you receive a notification that your order is ready. This process prevents long lines for the bucket, like we saw in 2023. It is an extra step, but we really think this process saves us SO much time!

We can’t wait to bring Figment with us as we experience the Festival of the Arts’ opening day! He is so adorable in his little beret and his paintbrush. The perfect popcorn bucket for the Festival of the Arts! We are loving the popcorn bucket. His paintbrush even lights up!

We are at the opening day of the 2026 EPCOT International Festival of the Arts, and we are doing EVERYTHING! And of course, we are bringing you all along with us. Be sure to stay tuned to DFB for reviews of every single booth, best of the fest, and more information about everything there is to see and do at this festival.
