food IS a theme park
Traditional meet and greets have returned to Disney World!
Mickey and Minnie
That’s right! You can now meet and greet — and HUG — many characters in the parks again. We’re also seeing more meet and greets return every day — most recently, Mickey and Minnie started greeting guests again at Adventurer’s Outpost in Disney’s Animal Kingdom. Now, Minnie will be joining Mickey in another spot to greet guests!
The return of traditional character meet and greets in Disney World has brought so much fun with it!
Launch Bay
We’ve welcomed back character dining, on-stage shows, popular meet and greet locations, and so much more! And now, with the help of the force, we’re getting ready to say hi to some galactic friends…and foes.
Want to meet Disney characters for FREE without going into the parks or even stepping into a character meal? Well, listen up!
Chip and Dale!
A number of things have returned to Disney World over the past few months, or are set to return soon — from the the Hoop-Dee-Doo Musical Revue to the Harmony Barber Shop. And now Disney has announced ANOTHER special experience will be returning soon!
Regular character meet and greets recently returned to Disney World, meaning you can hug your favorite characters again!
Jessie in 2022
We’ve seen many of the meet and greets return, as well as a lot of character dining, but not everything has gone completely back to normal. We’ve also seen the return of parades alongside character cavalcades. In fact, a NEW character cavalcade debuted in Magic Kingdom earlier this year with a ton of fun and unique characters. And now, a VERY popular Disney character is going to join the cavalcade!
STOP! I KNOW these places in Disney World LOOK and SOUND awesome, but they are STRICTLY PROHIBITED for guests.
Walls up!
When Disney says off-limits, they MEAN off-limits! We’re going to take a look at places you CAN’T visit in Disney World.
The 2022 EPCOT International Food and Wine Festival is here, so it’s time to get ready!
2022 EPCOT Food and Wine Festival
We have a bunch of tips and info for you, like how to budget for the festival, reviews of all the booths, and what entertainment is available. Even though the festival is comprised of mostly small plates of food, they can add up! So, let’s take a look at the CHEAPEST days to visit EPCOT’s Food and Wine Festival this year!
No matter where you go in Disney World these days, it seems like something exciting is happening!
Tomorrowland in Magic Kingdom
From brand new 50th Anniversary treats and celebrations to EPCOT festivals and groundbreaking new attractions — there’s plenty to see and do! We’ve been keeping a close watch on the construction progress over at TRON Lightcycle Run in Magic Kingdom, and we recently saw something that DEFINITELY caught our eye!
Here there DFB friends! We’re back again with more of what’s new in EPCOT!
Spaceship Earth
If you’re like us, you love hearing about anything and everything new around Disney World, and EPCOT was no exception this week! From a new Lightyear merchandise collection to several new MagicBands, it’s a good time to go shopping in EPCOT.
The time has come!
Magic Kingdom
You were tasked with a very difficult assignment: decide what attraction in Magic Kingdom is the best. Would it be a dark ride, like Peter Pan’s Flight? Or a classic ride, like “it’s a small world?” Maybe a thrill ride, like Space Mountain? Possibly even a show, like the Enchanted Tiki Room? The choice was up to you, and finally…you decided which ride in Magic Kingdom is the BEST!
Let’s face it: Disney World days can be EXHAUSTING!
Disney World days are exhausting!
Lots of folks rely on caffeinated beverages, whether that be a cup of coffee, a soda, or an energy drink to get them through the day (and really, we can’t blame them). There are lots of interesting coffee-based beverages to try in Disney World, but if you’re not a fan of coffee, you may feel like you have fewer options. Starbucks Refreshers are a good option if you’re looking for a caffeine-based drink that’s not coffee, and we spotted a new on in the Magic Kingdom today!
