Disney fans around the world roared with excitement when Disney announced a villain-themed land coming to Magic Kingdom and now we’ve got a second location confirmed for an attraction with Disney villains that will be in a completely different park!
After Disney made some seriously MASSIVE announcements at D23: The Ultimate Disney Fan Event, rumors have been swirling about what exactly that means for Disney World.
Hollywood Studios
A Monsters, Inc. coaster has been announced for Hollywood Studios and fans have been guessing just where it will go, with a few different possibilities swirling around out there. But, we definitely weren’t expecting an entirely NEW announcement about a permanent attraction closure at this park quite so soon — and certainly not for this reason!
Okay, let’s face it: going to Disney World is NOT cheap. In fact, it can be kinda’ pricey.
Let’s Celebrate!
HOWEVER, that’s not to say that you can’t get some things in Disney World ON THE CHEAP, or even for free. For example, you can get free water at most quick service restaurants. You can get free celebration buttons to celebrate special occasions in the park. You can get inexpensive upgrades for those buttons. You can also find souvenirs that won’t break the bank. So when we asked you, our DFB readers, what your favorite inexpensive or free things in Disney World are, you told us.
Something NEW just debuted at Disney World’s Halloween party and we think you’re gonna love it!
It’s Halloween in Disney World!
We’ve had a ton of fun kicking off this season’s first Mickey’s Not So Scary Halloween party and checking out all the eats, treats, spooky entertainment, and rare character meet and greets we could get around to in one night. But, if you’ve already attended one of this year’s parties, this party exclusive may be the thing to make you book another trip sooner than you expected!
Okay, we like to talk a LOT about our favorite — and some of the best — snacks in Disney World.
Magic Kingdom
How many times will we talk about Corn Dog Nuggets, or Mini Corn Dogs, or whatever Disney is calling them these days? A LOT (especially mentioning that plastic CHEEEEEESSSEEE). We’re also super big fans of Totchos and mention them A LOT. However, we’re going to turn things around for a bit as we head on over to Magic Kingdom. Sorry to get negative here, but we’re going to tell you about the WORST snacks available at Magic Kingdom. Basically, though, we’re just warning you, so you’ll know better.
Do you use Lightning Lanes when you go to Disney World?
Scanning into a Lightning Lane at Disney World
Recently, Disney World updated its skip-the-line system from Genie+ to Lightning Lane Multi Pass, and we’ve been learning all its ins and outs since it premiered in July. On top of learning the intricacies and rules, we’ve been monitoring the price of Lightning Lane Multi Pass for each park, each day. And there’s something interesting you should know about prices this week.

We know, we know, it’s only September, but we can’t lie — we’re SUPER excited for the holiday season in the Disney World and Disneyland parks!
Disneyland
We’ve already got our tickets for Mickey’s Very Merry Christmas Party in Magic Kingdom and Jollywood Nights in Hollywood Studios, but if you’ll be over on the West Coast for the holiday season, never fear! Disney recently announced all the offerings that will be coming back to Disneyland Resort this year for the holidays, including the beloved Festival of Holidays!
How much pixie dust is too much to pardon?
A crane has popped up at the construction site
Construction is a fact of life at Disney World. Whether we’re talking about ride refurbishments, hotel enhancements, or even a brand-spanking-new expansion, it’s hard to find a time when there isn’t some kind of work happening at Disney World. So, when will it end? Well, it’s a bit more complicated than that.
We can all sing the “it’s a small world song” whether we want to admit it or not. In fact, it’s probably stuck in your head right now.
“it’s a small world” in Tokyo
It may be a “small world” but this ride is getting some BIG changes at one Disney park! Back in March, Disney announced that there would be a Marvel take-over of the “it’s a small world” ride at Tokyo Disney. Groot and friends will be experiencing the world’s cultures over at this well-known ride in 2025, and now we got a sneak peek at the characters coming for the fun!
