My 2026 Disney Bucket List
There’s something about Disney that never fades—no matter how many trips you take, there’s always one more experience to dream about. As I look ahead to 2026, I’ve been thinking about the Disney moments I want to finally check off my bucket list. Some are nostalgic, some are magical, and all of them remind me why I love Disney so much in the first place.
Here’s what’s at the very top of my 2026 Disney Bucket List.
🎬 Rewatch Classic Disney Animation Films
Before the parks, the characters, and the castles, there were the films. In 2026, I want to intentionally revisit some of the Disney classics that started it all—
Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs, Pinocchio, Bambi, and Fantasia.
These movies are pure Disney magic: timeless storytelling, beautiful animation, and the kind of nostalgia that instantly transports you back to childhood. Watching (or rewatching) them feels like the perfect way to reconnect with the heart of Disney before stepping into the parks.

🍳 Enjoy a Character Breakfast
A Disney bucket list wouldn’t be complete without a character meal, and a character breakfast is high on my list. One of my dream experiences is dining at Plaza Inn at Disneyland.
There’s something so special about starting the day with classic Disney characters, delicious comfort food, and that charming Main Street atmosphere. It’s relaxed, magical, and perfect for soaking in Disney vibes before heading out for rides and adventures.

✨ Meet Unique Characters
I love meeting characters you don’t always see on every trip. In 2026, I’m hoping to meet some of my absolute favorites:
Wendy and Peter Pan
Mary Poppins and Bert
Rapunzel and Eugene
These interactions feel extra magical because they’re often more conversational and immersive. It’s less about a quick photo and more about stepping into their story—even if just for a moment.

🍽️ Eat at My Dream Table-Service Restaurant
One Disney dining experience I’ve been dreaming about for years is Be Our Guest Restaurant in Magic Kingdom Park.
Dining inside Beast’s Castle feels like stepping straight into Beauty and the Beast. From the grand ballroom to the themed details and elegant atmosphere, this is one of those “Disney moments” that feels truly once-in-a-lifetime—and absolutely bucket list–worthy.

🏨 Stay at a Disney-Owned Hotel
Staying on property adds a whole new level of magic to a Disney vacation, and in 2026 I want to check off another dream stay: The Disneyland Hotel.
From the Disney theming to the convenience and extra perks, there’s something so special about being fully immersed in the magic from morning to night. It’s not just a place to sleep—it’s part of the experience.
