food IS a theme park
We’ve said it before and we’ll say it again: Disney World can be expensive!
Disney World can be EXPENSIVE!
Not only are we seeing prices increase in the Disney World parks, but the way you get to the parks is getting more expensive also, with gas prices fluctuating and airfare prices surging. We wondered whether Disney World was becoming too expensive for the average family; here’s what YOU had to say.
Imagine a Disney World trip where you didn’t have to stress over ANY dining reservations whatsoever AND you’d still get to eat really great food.

Sounds nice, right? So let’s plan a Disney fast food vacation, here on DFB Guide.
The next generation of MagicBands is called MagicBand+, and you can buy them NOW in Disney World. We’re trying out all the new features today, so come along to see what’s different about these MagicBands.
MagicBand+
Disney accidentally released MagicBand+ a bit early in Disney Springs, so we got to try one out a couple of months ago. But because that release was accidental, most of the new features didn’t work at that time. Now that MagicBand+ has officially dropped in Disney World, we’ve learned more about the set-up process, how they work, and what the new features are. Are these new bands worth the extra cost? What’s good about them and what might not be so great? Let’s find out! [Read more…]
EPCOT’s 2022 Food & Wine Festival is in full swing right now, and we’ve had a great time trying out ALL of the eats and deciding which ones are the BEST. From Mimosa Flights to Piña Colada Funnel Cakes, Fried Cheese to Filet Mignon, there’s a LOT to love about this EPCOT festival. But there are a couple of not-so-great things about the festival as well.
EPCOT Food & Wine Festival 2022
One thing we’ve noticed as we taste our way around the festival is that many of the food booths and menu items are the same as last year, but the prices are DIFFERENT. Has EPCOT’s Food & Wine Festival gotten MORE expensive this year? We did the math, and we have the answer. [Read more…]
The launch of MagicBand+ in Disney World has finally begun!
MagicBand+ designs
After accidentally releasing some MagicBand+ bands earlier this year, MagicBand+ officially launches in Disney World on July 27th. We’ve already shared details about how this new device will turn you into a Bounty Hunter, how it’ll feel DIFFERENT than the classic MagicBand, and more, but now we’ve got even more to share!
Oh, Disney Springs, how we love you!
Yum!
We love heading to all the different restaurants and trying what’s new, and shopping ’till we drop! One of our favorite restaurants is The Edison, and we’re so happy to share they’ve announced their next event!
We’ve noticed a lot of happy treats around Disney World recently. Yes — happy.Â

Looking for a snack that smiles back? Try the Pop Goes Bananas Cupcake at Everything Pop Century Shopping & Dining. We also can’t forget when we were hit with a wave of happiness when we caught a glimpse of the Baymax S’mores at The Ganachery. And to add to the list, over in Magic Kingdom, you can grab a happy cone!
Let’s stroll over to EPCOT to get a look at the latest updates around the park!
EPCOT
Of course, the 2022 EPCOT Food & Wine Festival is going on. But there’s so much more happening right now, beyond the food and wine — construction, new merchandise, and more! So, let’s take a look at what’s new in EPCOT!
If there’s one thing to know about Disney World, it’s that there’s almost always something happening!
Cinderella Castle
Recently, we saw some changes come to the merchandise rule limiting the number of items you can buy at Disney World stores, and we’ve also seen the closure of the BoardWalk Bakery as it makes way for the new BoardWalk Deli. Today, we’re heading to Magic Kingdom to take a look at what’s new!
Disney World is undergoing some massive transformations, and some of those changes are taking BIG steps forward.
Boardwalk construction
We’ve seen ride testing underway at the TRON attraction, training begin for the reopening of the Walt Disney World Railroad, huge updates on the Moana attraction, and more. But now we’ve got ANOTHER update!
