Date Announced for 2026 Disney A-2-Z Pin Event

The date for the 2026 Walt Disney World annual pin trading event has been announced. The event titled Disney A-2-Z Pin Event will take place on Saturday, September 5, 2026 at a new location this year, the ESPN Wide World of Sports AdventHealth Arena, from 10:30am to 6:00pm.

For the past three years, the Walt Disney World pin event has been held at Disney’s Coronado Springs Resort Convention Center. The ESPN Wide World of Sports AdventHealth Arena has a larger capacity size which should allow more guests to experience the popular pin trading event.

Here are the details about the event from the Walt Disney World Merchandise Events website:

Embark on a storybook adventure from A-2-Z, where every letter unlocks a new chapter of Disney magic! Celebrate the art of pin trading with enchanting collections inspired by classic tales and beloved characters. Whether you’re a devoted collector or just beginning your tale, this event transforms the ABCs into a world of wonder, discovery and once-upon-a-time moments you’ll treasure forever.

No other event details have been announced at this time. Typically, event check-in and pin trading take on the day before the event but with a new location, I’m not sure if that will change this year. However, only the date, time and location of the 2026 Disney A-2-Z Pin Event have been confirmed so far.

Event ticket information, registration details and other event information will be announced at a later date. My guess is tickets and registration will be available around the first of June. I will keep you posted as I learn more.

Note: Official Disney pin trading events such as this one usually sell out very quickly after tickets go on sale so please plan accordingly once a ticket on-sale date has been announced.
