food IS a theme park
We’re gearing up for some big changes soon in Disney World!
Cinderella Castle
We’ve got the grand opening of TRON Lightcycle / Run on April 4th, but before that happens, two major fireworks shows are ending their run at Disney World — Harmonious and Disney Enchantment. Disney Enchantment is being replaced by its predecessor, Happily Ever After, and it looks like Disney is getting ready for the return of the show.
We’re anticipating the opening of several big attractions in Disney World in the coming months!

First up will be TRON Lightcycle / Run at Magic Kingdom, followed by the completion of the EPCOT transformation and Journey of Water — Inspired by Moana later this year. But in 2024, we’ll be “goin’ down the bayou” with Tiana at Magic Kingdom!
In the past few years, The Walt Disney Company has had some significant changes.

Theme parks are getting updated, Disney+ was launched back in 2019, and leadership has switched back and forth a few times. But one of the biggest changes coming for the company is that they’re moving 2000 jobs from California to Central Florida.
Do you guys remember the glory that was Disney Kitetails?
KiteTails
The limited-time show ran in the Discovery River Amphitheater at Animal Kingdom for the 50th Anniversary, but it was cut short and canceled in September 2022. KiteTails wasn’t without its technical difficulties (sometimes the kites took a nosedive into places they weren’t supposed to), but it was also a really fun addition to Animal Kingdom that could easily fit into your day’s plans. We’ve been mourning its loss since last fall, but now Disney seems to be “mocking” our pain!
For as massive and impressive as it is, there are still a lot of things MISSING from Disney World.
Magic Kingdom Park
The four parks that make up one of the world’s most popular vacation destinations may be filled with magic, but when you compare them to other Disney parks around the world, sometimes they fall short. Sure, we’ve got unique things like Animal Kingdom, Pandora — The World of Avatar, the World Showcase, Figment, and Liberty Square…but there are some things that we really miss that you can’t find at The Most Magical Place on Earth!
Ahh Spring Break, the time when hoards of travelers flood Florida looking to get a little sun and relaxation!
Cinderella Castle
During the months of March and April, Disney World and other Orlando theme parks tend to get pretty packed with all the out-of-town guests. And since the theme parks are crowded, you can expect the airport to be crowded as well!
You made it through the workweek and now it’s time to unwind!
Magic Kingdom
Let’s be honest — you need to treat yourself and relax a little. Whether that’s kicking back with your favorite movie on Disney+ or planning your next Disney vacation, you’ve earned it. But if your favorite way to relax is a little retail therapy…we’ve got you covered!
Do you like food? Well, if you’re here, the answer is probably YES.
Disney California Adventure Food & Wine Festival
Here at DFB, we’re experts on Disney food, and that includes the many food festivals that happen throughout the year at Disneyland Resort and Walt Disney World. We recently got the chance to check out the 2023 EPCOT International Flower & Garden Festival, and now just a few days later, we’re kicking off the Disney California Adventure Food & Wine Festival. Follow along with us!
If you’re a Star Wars fan or someone who has a Disney+ subscription, then you probably know why today is so important!

That’s right, it’s the premiere of The Mandalorian Season 3 on Disney+ and people are GIDDY with excitement. The show has been incredibly popular throughout its first two seasons, inspiring countless merchandise collections since 2019. But now, there’s an ultimate fan experience in Disney World!
Let’s be honest — we probably all have “dream” jobs that we wish we could take at Disney World or Disneyland.
Sleeping Beauty Castle
Whether is an operator at your favorite ride, performing in a parade, being “friends” with a character, or working as a VIP tour guide, there are so many options to choose from! But it turns out that celebrities have some of the same dreams we do — and a Disney Legend recently got to try out their dream Disney role.
