food IS a theme park
Things are CHANGING at Disneyland in a big way.
Main Street Electrical Parade
We’ve seen the return of Fantasmic!, World of Color, the Main Street Electrical Parade, and more at the Happiest Place on Earth, but soon some of these offerings will NOT be available for fans to enjoy.
There is a LOT happening in the Disney parks this summer!
Disneyland
We’ve got the start of the EPCOT Food & Wine Festival in Disney World, as well as the kick-off of the Halloween season early next month. Over in Disneyland Resort, special hotel perks are coming soon and we’ve seen some special character additions for recent films. But on top of that, there are some new eats that you’ll want to try out on the west coast!
Does anyone else feel like they’ve LIVED at the movie theater the past few months?
Thor: Love and Thunder sign
Disney has constantly been releasing new movies across the various franchises, with hits like Turning Red and Lightyear from Pixar, as well as Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness from Marvel. (And don’t even get us STARTED on all the awesome new shows we’ve been watching on Disney+!) The latest blockbuster hit to join the 2022 lineup is Thor: Love and Thunder, a film that Marvel fans have been highly anticipating for months…and now that it’s out, Disney is celebrating in a big way!
Marvel has been making a TON of content lately, and they’re not slowing down any time soon.

From Doctor Strange to Loki to Ms. Marvel to Spider-Man, there has been no shortage of Marvel TV shows and movies in the past couple of years. The latest addition to the Marvel world is Thor: Love and Thunder, which was just released in theaters. And now, a NEW character from the movie is coming to Disneyland!
Do you love The Haunted Mansion? Then there’s something you need to know about!
Haunted Mansion Holiday!
We recently saw new Haunted Mansion merchandise released, and we know a Haunted Mansion LEGO Set is on its way. And over in Disneyland, we’ve seen Haunted Mansion turn into Haunted Mansion Holiday for the Halloween season. That transformation will once again take place this year. But, in order for the change to occur, the ride has to close for a bit, and we’ve just gotten those closure dates!
Even though it’s only July, we’re ALREADY planning for Halloween in the Disney parks!
Halloween Time!
Celebrations will kick off next month in Disney World, with the first Mickey’s Not-So-Scary Halloween Party since 2019! Shortly after, Oogie Boogie Bash will begin in Disneyland Resort…but if you were hoping to visit and haven’t bought your tickets yet, we might have some bad news.
Salt & Straw changed how we think about ice cream.
Salt & Straw
With locations at both Disneyland and Disney World, we’re excited to taste new flavors on both coasts. We’ve eaten some interesting creations, too, like Deviled Egg Ice Cream (no, really), Saffron & Honey with Crystalized Flower Petals Ice Cream, and a delicious Roasted Pineapple Coconut Sherbet. So we can’t WAIT for new flavor drops, and an announcement for the next round of flavors is coming soon!
Are you a Star Wars fan?
Dok Ondar has stuff to sell you
We had the opportunity to cover EVERYTHING from the Star Wars Hotel, as well as ALL the big news from this year’s recent Star Wars Celebration, including new Star Wars merchandise coming to Disney Parks. Remember when Disney asked Star Wars fans to vote on the next Legacy Lightsaber Hilt, though? Well, now we know the results of the voting!
If you’re all about scoring that perfect Disneyland dining reservation, then we’ve got news for you.
Dream About Scoring that Ideal Reservation?

When it comes to your Disney vacation, time can make all the difference.
Sleeping Beauty Castle
Less time waiting in line means more time to ride other attractions and experience new activities, and in most cases — the earlier you get to a park, the better! Soon, select Disneyland Resort guests will have just a little bit more time in the parks thanks to an all-new benefit coming soon!
Our handy (and portable!) ebook guides make sure you get the best deals and can plan a vacation of a lifetime.
