3 Huge Announcements We’re Expecting Disney to Make SOON

By Leave a Comment

So Disney made a lot of MASSIVE announcements in 2024, especially about the parks.

Cinderella Castle in Magic Kingdom

We learned about all kinds of new lands and rides coming to Disney World and Disneyland. Now, we don’t have a LOT of details on many of these projects, but we expect to find out more soon, as well as learn more about Disney’s financial state, as a whole. That’s because Disney is hosting its Q1 2025 earnings call on February 5th — and we expect to get some BIG announcements during that call.

‘Ohana, California Grill, and 25 MORE Disney World Restaurants CHANGED This Week

By 1 Comment

We’ve been thinking a lot about Disney World food recently — okay, we lie, we think about Disney World food ALL the time. That’s how we got here!

We have been looking forward to the rest of the year, though, and filling you in on our must-have foods for 2025. We’re also looking forward to the EPCOT Festival of the Arts starting soon, which will bring a variety of food booths and TONS of art-inspired food and drinks (and we are STOKED). However, we’re also starting to see more restaurant menu changes come in (it got quiet there for a while during the holidays…), so we want to make sure you stay updated on those, too.

We’re Spilling the SECRETS of Disney’s NEW Haunted Mansion Store

By Leave a Comment

Okay, I am a BIG Haunted Mansion fan, as well as a BIG Disneyland fan, so imagine my excitement when I learned that the Haunted Mansion in Disneyland was getting a brand new queue and gift shop (honestly, both were greatly needed).

The new gift shop

So when the queue recently opened, I had a chance to look through all the photos, and it looks pretty cool. I like how it’s different from the queue in Disney World (because if they were the same, that would be BORING). Then the new gift shop, Madame Leota’s Somewhere Beyond, opened, and well, let’s just say, something felt off…Then I started seeing a lot of discussion online about some of the decor INSIDE the shop, and well, let’s just say you can find some of it (or similar items) on Amazon… No, really!

Moana has become a BIG property for Disney. Not only was the first Moana movie a smash hit, but the second movie recently premiered and has broken a lot of box office records.

We’ve met Moana in the parks. She’s even got her own attraction in EPCOT, Journey of Water — Inspired by Moana. There’s a brand new Moana show on Disney Cruise Line’s newest ship, the Disney Treasure. Moana is EVERYWHERE. However, one animator is now saying that Moana and her story were stolen from his original idea and has filed a lawsuit against Disney, according to The Hollywood Reporter.

DATES REVEALED for the 2025 Walt Disney World Swan and Dolphin Food Classic

By Leave a Comment

Okay, who doesn’t love a festival in Disney World? We love a festival mostly because it means even MORE food comes to the resort. We are all about that food.

Now, we know we have the EPCOT Food & Wine Festival to look forward to this fall, but there’s actually ANOTHER Food and Wine Festival in Disney World that doesn’t even require a park ticket. We’re talking about the Walt Disney World Swan and Dolphin Food and Wine Classic, and we now know the dates for this year’s event: November 14th and 15th from 5 to 9 PM.

REVIEW: Is Disney’s New Candy Bar Sundae BOTH Delicious and Disappointing?

By Leave a Comment

Okay, so sometimes Disney comes up with some unique snack ideas. For example, we’re always up for trying new DOLE Whip combos (and we haven’t seen a DOLE Whip yet that we don’t love).

The Golden Horseshoe

In Disneyland, we sometimes get some unique churro flavors (although, let’s face it, the Fluffernutter Churro is GOALS). There’s also the Churro Toffee that combines churro flavors with toffee and somehow makes both even better. Of course, we also love when Disney takes its classic Mickey beignet and creates some new flavors. Well, Disney has done it again — mixing some ideas to create a new snack, but this time, it’s  just not really imaginative.
