Pin trading is a popular collector’s activity for many guests at Walt Disney World. Â Pin trading has become a frenzy for so many guests. Â Pins are available for purchase at the parks. Â They are also available for trade with cast members all around Walt Disney World. Â If you trade with cast members you may be able to get your hands on cast exclusive pins or limited edition pins that aren’t available for purchase. Â Guests who love pin trading will be excited to know that Walt Disney World will host an annual pin trading event at Epcot. Â The event will be held at World Showplace and take place on August 25 – 26. Â It will run from 9:30AM to 6PM each day of the event. Â This year’s event is known as “Love is an Adventure”, and tickets will be sold for $150 for each guest.
The admission ticket price will include 4 vouchers to the trading board games, admission to a training challenge, meet and greets with Disney pin merchandisers, meet and greets with pin artists, attendance to the pin artist panel discussion, character meet and greets, photo ops, a welcome pin specific for the event, a goodie bag with extras, 6-pin gift set, Goodbye pin set, opportunities to pre-purchase some of the event-exclusive pins and a $30 gift card that can be used at the event. Â This is a dream event for the serious pin traders out there and admission already gets them tons of amazing pins. Â The event admission does not include admission to Epcot, which will be required. Â Guests will have to purchase that admission separately and it will be required in order to attend the event.
Tickets can be purchased by visiting www.disneyurl.com/LIAARegistration. Â Be prepared to pay for the cost of admission and registration to the event in advance. Â This is expected to be a popular event and admission will be limited to a select number of guests.
