food IS a theme park
You can feel Halloween in the air…

With spooky season nearly upon us, it’s time to start thinking about costumes and decorations. Disney and Amazon have teamed up once again with a special storefront that can meet all your Halloween needs.Â
It’s that time again…
EPCOT International Food and Wine Festival
Every year, a massive change ripples through EPCOT that fundamentally alters how to approach a day at the park: The EPCOT Food and Wine Festival. The litany of special events and offerings offered by the crowds they draw – – along with the crowds they draw – – makes the park a very different place than it is normally. Whether you’re a festival veteran or have never been, it’s best to bone up on all the ways EPCOT is about to change.Â
Calling all Disney World night owls!
Cinderella Castle at night
If you do your best theme parking late at night, there are plenty of ways to accomplish your goals long after dark. From holiday parties to Extended Evening Hours, we’ve spent plenty of late nights in the parks. And if that’s your plan, you’ll be happy to know that a popular event is returning for 2025!
It is almost here! The EPCOT International Food and Wine Festival is returning to EPCOT this week!
2023 EPCOT Food and Wine Festival
We are eagerly counting down the days until EPCOT once again has a festival, as it has been festival-less all summer, but that is all about to change when the Food and Wine Festival returns on August 29th. We already have the complete list of booths and all the menus, and it has been making us hungry all week. We have been going to the Food and Wine Festival for 15 years, so we know a thing or two about festival strategy, and of course, we want to share our game changers with you!
We go to Disney World every single day, so that means we’re eating quite a few meals in the parks.
Magic Kingdom
We’re often there for breakfast, lunch, and sometimes even dinner, and throughout those many meals, we’ve tried all KINDS of snacks. Some spots have risen to the top of our list for must-try eats in the parks, but others leave some things to be desired. And today, we’re here to tell you about a major breakfast problem!
You’ve got ONE day to do EVERYTHING worthwhile in Disney’s Animal Kingdom. So where do you go? What do you prioritize? And how do you make the MOST out of your limited time there?

We’ve got the BEST STRATEGY for Disney’s Animal Kingdom that we’re gonna share with you TODAY, here on DFB Guide!
We talk about rope dropping the Disney World parks quite a bit, but one of our favorite times to visit the parks is actually late at night!
Hollywood Studios at Night
From holiday parties to After Hours events to Extended Evening Hours, there are plenty of ways to enjoy Disney World once the parks have closed to regular guests. However, if you want to take advantage of these offerings, you’ll definitely need to plan in advance. They’re only available on select nights and sometimes, only certain attractions are available for you to experience!
Hooray for Hollywood…Studios! Okay, so Hollywood Studios is a super fun park and we’ll admit that we sometimes prefer it over the other parks in Disney World.
Hollywood Studios
There’s just something special that happens when you step into Hollywood Studios and find yourself in old Hollywood with a very questionable hotel in the background (we hear the elevator keeps having problems), seeing a replica of Grauman’s Chinese Theatre right in front of you, complete with hand prints and autographs of some pretty famous people right in front. Then you can step INTO the movies, like Toy Story and Star Wars. However, there are some outright lies we keep hearing people tell about Hollywood Studios, and we’re about to bust those wide open!
The excitement for Epic Universe is real and we are constantly on the lookout for any updates or announcements about this upcoming theme park.

Universal has released information leading up to the opening of Epic Universe, from its featured lands to new hotels, and even a behind-the-scenes look at construction. But we came across another update that shows that Universal is putting in the work for its opening in the near future.
Big changes are coming to California Adventure.Â
Red Trolley Car
There were many major announcements made at the 2024 D23 Ultimate Fan event regarding Disney’s theme parks, including the confirmation that the Avengers E-Ticket attraction is finally coming to California Adventure. The new ride, dubbed Avengers Infinity Defense, will anchor an expansion to Avengers Campus that will also feature the Stark Flight Lab attraction, which will feature Robert Downey Jr. returning as Iron Man. However, this new construction may lead to the end of an old favorite.Â
