Front Description
This UP, UP AND AWAY HOT AIR BALLOONS pin-and-stand set was released at the "Celebrating 25 Years of Disney Pins" event on 20 Sep 2025 at WDW. Designers Kate Dykstra and Maria Stuckey collaborated on this set, which includes eight dangle pins and an acrylic display stand. "When Pin Trading started at the Millennium Celebration one of the very first pins was the legendary Mickey Mouse Hot Air Balloon. The design inspired the artists to imagine a collection to compliment that initial pin." Each pin features a different classic character head or park icon (made of 3D sculpted PVC) as a hot-air balloon. Below the PVC piece is a dangle, which resembles a balloon's basket, bearing the event's logo and iridescent-stone icon.
The pins feature Mickey, Donald, Goofy, Pluto, the Magic Kingdom castle, EPCOT's Spaceship Earth, Hollywood Studios' Tower of Terror, and Animal Kingdom's Tree of Life.
