As part of this year’s New Year’s Eve celebration, Disney’s Animal Kingdom is pintroducing a family fun special pin trading opportunity throughout the park only on Tuesday, December 31, 2019! Check out pin trading boards displaying over 90 pins located throughout the lands of Africa, Asia, DinoLand U.S.A., and Discovery Island.  These displays will include Hidden Mickey pins and pins from Disney theme parks from around the world. You’ll have the opportunity to trade pins from these displays during the following times:

  • 1:00 – 2:00 p.m.
  • 2:45 – 3:45 p.m.
  • 5:45 – 6:45 p.m.
  • 7:30 – 8:30 p.m.

This pin trading opportunity is truly special so you will have one minute (yes, I said 1 minute!) to trade two (2) Disney pins off of the designated trading boards.  So be sure to get there during each allotted timeframe to see what’s new to each board!
