Crocs And McDonald’s UAE Are Collabing For A Nostalgic Twist And You Have To See It

Remember when the pinnacle of childhood joy was unboxing a Happy Meal, hoping for the coolest toy of the batch? Or when Crocs first stomped into the playground, instantly dividing kids into two camps: those who thought they were the ultimate flex… and those secretly wishing they had a pair? Fast forward a decade (or two), and guess what… both icons are back in the spotlight, teaming up in the most unexpected of ways.

McDonald’s UAE has joined forces with Crocs for a collab that blends food, fashion, and a hefty dose of nostalgia

McDonald’s UAE just dropped the cutest collab of the season – Happy Meals now come with exclusive Tiny Crocs keychains, and they’re only around until September 14! It’s the kind of crossover that makes you pause and think: of course, Happy Meals and Crocs belong together, how did no one think of this sooner?

RUUNN!

To keep the fun going, there’s a family-friendly pop-up at Market Island, Dubai Festival City Mall from August 29–31, packed with games, workshops, prizes, and even a giant Happy Meal photo op. It’s all about smiles, play, and a little collector’s joy – so grab your Happy Meal and catch the Crocs magic before it’s gone!

The drop isn’t just about snagging a meal and a collectable toy; it’s an entire experience

Each Happy Meal comes with a collectable tiny Crocs toy (or keychain), complete with different designs, stickers, and even a special-edition Happy Meal box made just for the collab. And just in case you were wondering, YES, the mini crocs come in sports mode!

But it doesn’t stop at the toys. Families can also visit special in-mall activations across the UAE, featuring workshop corners, digital games, a claw machine, and photo ops with giant Crocs shoes. The main hub will be at Dubai Festival City Mall, Market Island, from August 29 – 31, running 10am to midnight. Prizes up for grabs include Crocs clogs, Crocs discount vouchers, Happy Meal toys, and even meal vouchers—so there’s something for every kind of collector (and snacker).

This isn’t about chasing trends, folks, it’s about reimagining two childhood staples in a way that feels surprisingly fresh, a little tongue-in-cheek, and just fun enough to make you want to step in for a look (or a bite).
