food IS a theme park
January was busier than expected in Disney World, and February is going to FILLED with new and exciting things!
Spaceship Earth
We’re going to be able to catch a new cavalcade, a new stage show, returning restaurants, and lots more, so let’s get into it!
If there’s ONE thing we know that Disney fans love to know about — it’s when a new pair of Minnie ears drops in the parks!
There are so many ears to choose from!
It’s one souvenir that tends to FLY off the shelves (especially if it’s a popular design) and today we got a remake of an old design that we think is going to be very popular! And let us just say that they’re STUNNING in person.
Walt Disney World has been celebrating its 50th anniversary is spectacular fashion, with a full castle makeover, a ton of new food, and new entertainment.
Happy birthday Disney World!
One of our favorite things that’s been added for the celebrations are the golden 50th character statues across all 4 parks. And, Disney has made it possible for you to take these statues home with you (kind of)! We’ve seen ornament sets of the statues and mini figures available in mystery sets, but now, there are even bigger versions of the statues available!
Disney World is a POWERHOUSE when it comes to cranking out new merchandise and treats! Just when you think you’ve seen it all, Disney proves you wrong. We’re not complaining, though! From the tiniest little additions to the BIG construction updates, it’s always fun to see what’s new in the Magic Kingdom.
2022 is FLYING by!
We’re in Disney World pretty much ALL the time, so we figured we’d share a little update on what’s new! Let’s take a look at what we found in the Magic Kingdom this week!
If you’re going to Disney World in February, you’re in for some fun!
Magic Kingdom
There are things coming back that we haven’t seen since before the parks shut down, as well as NEW things happening, and it’s almost time for the sweetest holiday of the year. It’s also a time that’s typically slower than other times of the year and has milder weather, so it’s a great month to visit in! Let’s get into the BEST things to do in Disney World in February.
Disney World has SO many snacks, it can be hard to know what to order! Sometimes, you might see something on the menu and think it looks delicious, only to be let down. Unfortunately, today was one of those days when we did not enjoy our meal today in the Magic Kingdom. What can we say…we were drawn in by the enticing menu photo and tricky 50th Anniversary branding! We’ve all been there.
Happy 50th Anniversary! (several months later)
Disney released a TON of new snacks and desserts for the 50th Anniversary. Some were adorable and delicious; others were not. We’re here to issue a warning to those of you looking for a quick lunch or mid-afternoon snack: don’t make the same mistake we did!
Disney World is constantly updating and changing attractions, hotels, and shops. If you’re visiting the parks soon, don’t be surprised if a few spots are closed for refurbishments.
Splash Mountain is closed right now
So that you’re prepared before your vacation, we found every hotel, ride, and attraction that’s scheduled to be closed in Disney World in February. Some Disney World offerings can close without notice if weather or technical issues become a problem, but the closures on this list are all of the ones you can plan on before you go. [Read more…]
GET READY DISNEY FANS, IT HAS FINALLY HAPPENED. What has happened? What is “it”? Well, let us explain!
Main Street Railroad Station
Fans of the Walt Disney World Railroad have been deprived of their scenic and relaxing rides around the Most Magical Place on Earth for quite some time as construction on the TRON attraction continues. Late last year, Disney announced that the Walt Disney World Railroad had been undergoing some refurbishment, and shared that it would even start testing soon in Magic Kingdom. And recently one Disney fan witnessed something that’ll make every Disney World Railroad fan incredibly jealous!
Here at DFB, we’re constantly scouring the shelves of Disney World gift shops to find the merchandise items that we think you’ll love and need to know about.
So much new merchandise has come out in the past few months!
In the past few months, we’ve found a bunch of new merch, with everything from holiday-specific products to 50th Anniversary collections. And today, we found a brand-new toy…one that even adults may want!
We’re getting a BUNCH of entertainment options back at Disney World soon!
Entertainment is coming back to Magic Kingdom!
The beloved Festival of Fantasy Parade is returning in March, and the Frontierland Hoedown is coming back to Magic Kingdom in just a few weeks. A brand-new cavalcade, the Disney Adventure Friends Cavalcade, is premiering soon as well. But on top of all that, Mickey’s Magical Friendship Faire, a revamped castle stage show, is starting performances on February 25th and now we know what the show’s schedule will be!
Our handy (and portable!) ebook guides make sure you get the best deals and can plan a vacation of a lifetime.
