Here’s Apple’s special 50th anniversary merch for employees

Apple Park is hosting an exclusive Paul McCartney concert for employees today in celebration of the company’s 50th anniversary tomorrow. And ahead of the festivities, Apple has started offering special 50th merch gifts to staff. Here’s a look.

Apple employee gifts commemorate ‘50 Years of Thinking Different’

Ahead of tonight’s Apple 50th anniversary party at Apple Park, photos of special employee-exclusive merch have begun circulating.

Posts on X from Mr. Macintosh and L0vetodream offer a great look at the employee gift packages.

Each merch set includes a T-shirt, poster, and pin for employees.

The merch includes Apple’s 50th anniversary logo and the tagline ‘50 Years of Thinking Different.’ That line matches the name of Tim Cook’s open letter that kicked off Apple’s anniversary celebration.

Here’s the message detailing the employee gift set:

1976-2026

50 Years of Apple.
Inspired by our heritage rainbow colors and crafted by hand – a commemorative T-shirt, limited-edition poster, and enamel pin are here for you.

Apple has hosted a variety of 50th anniversary celebrations around the world, starting with the Grand Central concert featuring Alicia Keys in New York City last month.

The official Apple 50th anniversary is tomorrow, April 1.

We’ll have a series of posts celebrating the occasion in the days ahead, starting today with this special Apple Music playlist by Parker Ortolani.
