The holiday season is right around the corner and the Disneyland Resort is gearing up to make handmade candy canes again this year. If you are not familiar with the Disneyland handmade candy canes, this is a yearly tradition and the candy canes are just as popular as Disney popcorn buckets (maybe even more popular). And just like a new Disney popcorn bucket release, guests flock to the parks to get one of these handmade candy canes. But because the candy canes are extremely limited in quantities, Disneyland has once again announced a distribution schedule and guidelines for the distribution.
The candy canes will be distributed at Candy Palace & Candy Kitchen at Disneyland Park and at Trolley Treats at Disney California Adventure Park on the following dates:

Distribution Information
For a chance to purchase one of these candy canes this year, wristbands will be used. A limited number of candy canes will be available on each of the release dates. The candy canes are limited to one per guest per distribution day and an in-person purchase is required.
To obtain a wristband on one of the release dates, make sure arrive at the park at least one hour before distribution begins because wristbands are available on a first come, first serve basis. The price of a 2026 handmade candy cane has not been announced but will be around $23.99 (based on previous year pricing). Please note that discounts do not apply to candy cane purchases.
Will you be at the Disneyland Resort on one of the distribution days to pick up one of these handmade candy canes? And is a yearly tradition for you? Maybe I’ll see you there! And if this is your first experience with the handmade candy canes, make sure you plan in advance as the wristbands and candy canes are limited on each distribution day.
