Move over, Halloween — it’s time to celebrate the holidays!
Festival of the Holidays 2022
Well, according to Disney World, anyway. The EPCOT Festival of the Holidays will be here before we know it, and we’ve seen a few hints here and there about what we can expect. And, we just learned that one of our favorite parts of this jolly festival is returning this year — here’s what we know!
One of our favorite places to find Disney merchandise is Target.
Do you also love Target?
Let’s face it, Target is one of our favorite places to buy anything. However, it is pretty neat that there’s an entire DISNEY STORE inside of select Targets, which makes it a convenient spot to run inside and grab some magical merch. Target has started to roll out some Christmas decor onto the shelves — Disney-themed Christmas decor included. However… there’s something NEW coming soon!

The Disney Treasure is the newest addition to the Disney Cruise Line and is scheduled to set sail in December 2024. The voyage is described as a cruise “where the spirit of adventure meets the daring tales of classic Disney films and Disney park attractions,” per Disney.
Sailing for seven-night cruises, the ship will travel through eastern and western parts of the Caribbean while providing guests with special Disney perks, such as character dining, special attractions, and Disney entertainment. Early this month Disney provided us with an October 2023 update that gets us even more excited for the Disney Treasure launch!
There are SO many ways to celebrate the holidays in Orlando!
Holidays in Magic Kingdom
You could head to Disney World and check out Mickey’s Very Merry Christmas Party or Jollywood Nights, as well as a variety of free offerings in Disney Springs and at the resorts. Or maybe you want to go to Universal Orlando and check out their holiday parade and seasonal celebrations? All of those things are plenty of fun, but while you’re in the area, there’s one more holiday offering that we encourage you to check out.
The Brightline train service recently became available to the people of Orlando.
Brightline Orlando Train Station
The high-speed train services much of southern Florida and only recently made travel from Orlando to Miami a quick train ride. Now, after only about two weeks of offering this new train service in Orlando, Brightline is making a change that will benefit even more riders.

We consider ourselves to be some of the biggest Disney park fans around, and if you’re anything like us — you just might too!
Pirates of the Caribbean in Magic Kingdom
And, we especially love learning the secrets and ins and outs of everything that goes on behind the scenes, which is why Disney’s Behind the Attraction became an instant classic for us. This show takes you into the minds of Imagineers as you learn stories about iconic Disney attractions — and a second season is coming soon!
If you enjoy the controversial McRib at McDonald’s, you’re going to want to keep reading. (We also have a few questions. The first one: Why?)
McDonald’s
Anyway, McDonald’s fans and sandwich connoisseurs everywhere mourned last fall as the polarizing McRib went on a “Farewell Tour.” (We didn’t get a One Direction farewell tour but we got one for the MCRIB? Hello?) The sandwich used to return to McDonald’s menus each November, but last year, the restaurant chain told us that November 2022 would be the FINAL November for the McRib. Well, McDonald’s was apparently just joshing. The sandwich is back. Kind of. Let’s talk about it!
We’ve seen our fair share of Disney100 collections over the past few months, and that doesn’t seem to be stopping any time soon!
