It seems like there’s always something new and exciting happening at Walt Disney World, and that’s especially true right now during the 50th anniversary celebration. Along with an 18-month golden birthday for the Magic Kingdom, Disney’s all-new Guardians of the Galaxy: Cosmic Rewind ride is making its debut at Epcot on May 27. Between all the anniversaries, new food, and attraction debuts, Disney World’s Guardians of the Galaxy merch is a must for fans visiting the parks this year.

Not only is there plenty of cute backpacks for Disney World’s 50th anniversary and retro fanny packs for Guardians of the Galaxy: Cosmic Rewind, but there is also new Avatar merch to celebrate the 5th anniversary of Pandora — World of Avatar at Animal Kingdom. The all-new Avatar items are just what you need if you’re still thinking about the Avatar: The Way of Water trailer, and the collection includes a candle that smells like the Na’vi River.

Disney even went back in their vault for inspiration for some of its newest Disney World merch, and the collection is giving unbelievably nostalgic vibes. The best part of all is that you can find all of the new Disney World merch all over Walt Disney World. Whether you’re going to Magic Kingdom, Epcot, Hollywood Studios, Animal Kingdom, or just shopping around Disney Springs, you’ll be able to find something cute you’ll want to take home as a souvenir from your magical vacay.
