Which celebration stickers are there?
The official FAQ names two: the birthday sticker and the sticker for celebrating an anniversary or special occasion. Either way, a Cast Member writes your name or a message on it. The old first-visit sticker (1st Visit) ended on October 2, 2024; first visits are now marked with the celebration sticker.
