The Cars 20th Anniversary: Lightning McQueen Bucket launches June 9 at Disneyland Resort and Walt Disney World Resort.
Disney Parks revealed the novelty popcorn bucket Thursday afternoon with a short official video. The red Lightning McQueen bucket appears with lit headlights, glowing underbody lights, and a racing-style finish.

June 9 Bucket Launch
Disney has not listed pricing or specific cart locations yet. The launch covers both U.S. Disney resort destinations, with Walt Disney World included from day one.
At Disneyland Resort, Cars Land at Disney California Adventure gives the bucket a natural Lightning McQueen setting. Walt Disney World does not have a full Cars Land, so the June 9 rollout gives Florida guests a new Cars souvenir without a matching land around it.
Cars Anniversary Merchandise
The bucket joins Disney's busy early-June Pixar merchandise run, with Toy Story 5 items, theater tie-ins, and park-adjacent collectibles already landing ahead of the summer movie calendar.
For guests chasing the bucket on June 9, the price and location list matter more than the design details. The next useful update will be where Disney sells it and whether each coast gets the same purchase limits.
