McDonald’s to offer adult happy meals this October
For a limited time, McDonald’s is giving adults a chance to relive some of their childhood by purchasing an Adult Happy Meal.
Happy Meals aren’t just for kids this time. McDonald’s teamed up with fashion street wear brand Cactus Plant Flea Market to release an adult meal box complete with classic toys.
“One day you ordered a Happy Meal for the last time and you didn’t even know it,” McDonald’s said on its Facebook page earlier this month. But the fast food giant’s upcoming campaign will give adults a chance to relive part of their childhood.
From next Monday through October 30, McDonald’s is offering the Meal Box at the Plant Cactus Flea Market, where adults can relish the nostalgia of childhood. The box includes a meal and a classic McDonald’s character: Grimace, Hamburglar, Birdie and newcomer Cactus Buddy.
Cactus Plant flea market fans can also win merchandise by entering a sweepstakes via the McDonald’s app. “We’re taking one of McDonald’s most nostalgic experiences and literally repackaging it in a new way that’s hyper-relevant to our adult fans,” said Tariq Hassan, McDonald’s USA Chief Marketing and Customer Experience Officer on Tuesday.

This isn’t the first time McDonald’s has partnered with big names in pop culture to boost sales. In 2020, she teamed up with American rapper Travis Scott and brought out his favorite meal: a Quarter Pounder, French fries, and a Sprite. And in 2021, McDonald’s released BTS Meal, a collaboration with the South Korean boy band.
