Pin-trading in Shanghai Disneyland

Did you know that there is Pin-trading inside the Shanghai Disneyland? If you love pins, you should not miss this opportunity! You need to find Disney cast members who wear pin lanyards. At Disney World, a green lanyard means that cast member will only trade with kids. At Disneyland, the kid-only lanyards are teal. Any other color lanyard is fair game for everyone.

In general, pin trading rules are simple:

  • Pins must be authentic metal pins stamped with “©Disney” on the back
  • They must be in good shape.
  • Pins must have an authentic Disney Mickey Mouse ear backing.
  • Whether to trade is your choice; cast members must agree to trade any official Disney pin you request.
  • Pin trading is intended to be free; you should never pay to trade a Disney pin.
  • The only pins cast members will not trade are award or service pins and personalized name pins.
  • Pin trading etiquette says you should not touch any of the cast member’s pins. Just point to the one you want and the cast member will remove it and hand it to you.

1. The following cannot be brought into the park: flammable items; alcoholic beverages; cans or glass containers; oversized luggage; large tripods; folding chairs and stools; animals.

2. Guests are allowed to bring outside food and beverage items into the Park for self-consumption, provided that they do not require heating, reheating, processing, refrigeration or temperature control and do not have pungent odors.
