food IS a theme park
Disney dropped a TON of news on us at D23: The Ultimate Disney Fan Event and we’ve been busy trying to discover all the little tiny details ever since!
Hi, Walt!
One of the most exciting announcements (other than the HUGE park expansions revealed for Disney World and Disneyland) was that a nighttime parade is finally coming BACK to Magic Kingdom — except this will be a BRAND-NEW parade! Disney Starlight will debut next year and we’ve just spotted the first casting call!
Halloween is in full effect at Disney World and Magic Kingdom is certainly proud of it!
So cute!!!
From the iconic Mickey pumpkin Wreaths to the adorable pumpkin scarecrows, Main Street, U.S.A. is full of spooky holiday fun, and we are loving it! But, the festivities don’t just stop there.
Have you tried Disney World’s new Lightning Lane system?
Mickey & Minnie’s Runaway Railway Lightning Lane sign
Gone are the old ways of Genie+, and now we instead have Lightning Lane Multi Pass and Lightning Lane Single Pass to help us skip the long waits in the park. These paid systems can save you time during your park day, IF you know how to use them efficiently. That’s why we’re teaching you about one of our Lightning Lane tricks!
We found out A LOT of things coming to Disney World in the next few years during D23: The Ultimate Disney Fan Event! However, one announcement has left us feeling a bit worried.Â
Animal Kingdom
We learned that a Cars Land AND a Villains Land will be coming to Magic Kingdom, a Monsters, Inc. Land will be coming to Disney’s Hollywood Studios, new lounges are coming to Magic Kingdom and EPCOT, and so much more. We also learned that Disney’s Animal Kingdom will also be seeing some big changes soon and we are feeling a bit anxious about what that might mean.
We’re back with an update from the WILDEST town in Disney World!
Hey there tiny villagers!
If you’ve been following along with our adventures in the tiny train town in EPCOT, then you know that this itty bitty city is filled with crime, dastardly deeds, and in general, complete anarchy. As the self-proclaimed mayor of the village, I’ve been attempting to catch the criminals in their wrongdoing and keep the town on the straight and narrow, but during a recent visit, I found some concerning problems.
Few things are more disappointing than getting to Disney World, only to realize that the attraction you’ve been looking forward to riding is CLOSED.
Cinderella Castle
It happens more often than you might think — usually because the ride itself needs a little TLC. That’s been the case for an iconic Magic Kingdom ride as of late, but we’ve got good news because this ride is reopening EARLY!
Happy Halloween season, ghouls and boys! Sorry…we couldn’t resist. We are in the spooky spirit now that we’ve been to the first Mickey’s Not-So-Scary Halloween Party this year.
Halloween at Disney World!
Yes, Halloween has arrived in Disney World, along with all the fun Halloween decorations in Magic Kingdom. One of the most ICONIC pieces of decor, though, are the Mickey pumpkin wreaths, and in case you missed it, you can buy a similar one for your own home! Well, you can if you’re fast enough because those babies are flying off shelves. However, we recently witnessed a restock…but we can’t promise they’ll last for long!
The holiday season will be here before we know it!
Magic Kingdom during the holidays (2023)
Mickey’s Not-So-Scary Halloween Party is currently happening in Magic Kingdom through October 31st, but after that, the holiday season will EXPLODE into Disney World! Many Disney World fans wish it would wait a little longer, preferably until after Thanksgiving, but we love that having Mickey’s Very Merry Christmas Party start so early gives more families a chance to experience the magic while they visit the parks. However, with Disney’s recent change from Genie+ to Lightning Lane Multi Pass and Lightning Lane Single Pass, what does that mean for its usage during the party?
Alright everyone, time to gather ’round and say “CHEESE!”
Emile and Remy are ready!
But not for a picture; it’s time to check out what’s in store for Emile’s Fromage Montage at this year’s EPCOT International Food & Wine Festival!
D23 just wrapped up this past weekend, and there was so much news that dropped!
D23: The Ultimate Disney Fan Event
We are still recovering from the weekend, and all that took place at D23. While new movies and shows were announced and new Disney Legends were inducted, arguably some of the most exciting news came from the Disney Parks Panel, where Josh D’amaro, Chairman of Disney Experiences, made several announcements about the future of the parks. While some of these announcements are exciting, some fans are mourning what will be lost to these new projects.
