food IS a theme park
It can be tricky to keep up with all of Disney World’s projects and refurbishments.
Mickey’s PhilharMagic is Closed right now
Attractions, rides, and hotels might be closed for various reasons around the parks, and you’ll want to know what’s not available during your upcoming trip. We’re taking a look here at everything that will be closed in Disney World next week.
Alright, stay calm everyone. We know pumpkin season isn’t technically over, but, at least in Disney World, the holidays are here!🎄
Happy Holidays from Disney World!
We’ve already seen holiday stars going up in Disney’s Hollywood Studios, lights being installed in Living with the Land, and holiday decor up in Disney’s Animal Kingdom. Now, another sign of the holidays has popped up in Disney World!
Disney World’s Minnie ear game has been a little bit questionable lately.
Lots of Minnie Ears
We’ve seen a couple of ear headbands that make us think that Disney is stealing fabric off our Grandma’s old couch. We just spotted NEW Minnie ears in Disney World that have a similar kind of fabric, but these ones are so. much. better. Take a look at the newest ears and see how Disney seriously stepped up their game.
Halloween weekend has arrived, which means that the holidays are — quite literally — right around the corner.
Get ready to think about decorating that tree!
And Disney World is gearing up for the season — we’ve already seen holiday decorations in the parks, we got a sneak peek at some of the holiday merchandise we’ll soon find, and we even have a list of holiday treats we can’t wait to try! And now, we’ve got some details about this year’s gingerbread displays.
The holidays are coming up very soon in Disney World!
Holiday decorations at Magic Kingdom
Disney starts celebrating the holidays particularly early. In fact, there are already holiday decorations up in some areas of the parks! But, after Halloween, things really kick into high gear, with Christmas trees going up and, most importantly, special holiday FOOD being released! We recently found out about the food coming to Animal Kingdom, Hollywood Studios, Magic Kingdom, and Disney Springs, but we just now learned about ALL the food coming to the Disney World hotels!
We’re just going to say it straight: There’s not a ton of awesome options for dining in the Magic Kingdom.
Frontierland Entrance
Compared to other parks (and EPCOT especially), the options for delicious food in this park are a little more limited. But there are definitely still a couple of fan-favorite spots around, and we’re heading to one of them today to try out a few dishes. Yee-haw! We’ll meet you over in Frontierland!
The 2021 EPCOT Food and Wine Festival is in full swing, and we have already reported on the MUST HAVES for this year’s festival! But what if you have been missing ANOTHER major Disney World food and wine festival all these years and didn’t even realize it?
Swan and Dolphin Resort Area
The Swan and Dolphin Food and Wine Classic is “the other” food and wine festival in the Walt Disney World area, but unlike EPCOT, you’ll only have two nights to enjoy the food, fun, and festivities. It’s also a much more condensed space, so you’ll be able to see it all in one night. Let’s look closer at the other Food and Wine fest ’round these parts!
We’ve seen plenty of adorable Halloween treats in Disney World this year.
Fall Decorations at Magic Kingdom
And we have to admit — we’ve also seen our share of not-so-cute Halloween treats as well. Today we went to a Disney World hotel restaurant to check out a returning treat from last year (spoiler alert: it was one of the not-so-cute ones last year), but we were SHOOK when we saw what this ugly duckling turned into.
Disney World drinks and snacks are kind of our thing.
Disney Springs
And one of the best places to find fun food, treats, and drinks is actually Disney Springs. Disney Springs is a shopping location that has a bunch of Disney-themed gift shops as well as other popular stores, restaurants, and kiosks. Today, we’re heading in to try a new treat that just arrived at the gelato shop there!
In case you haven’t noticed, a lot has been going on in Magic Kingdom lately! Its new fireworks show Disney Enchantment premiered a month ago, and the park has been celebrating its 50th Anniversary (along with all of Disney World) along with all of the festive treats and merchandise!
Magic Kingdom
As we gear up for the holiday season (can you believe it’s almost November?), let’s recap everything that’s new in Magic Kingdom!
Our handy (and portable!) ebook guides make sure you get the best deals and can plan a vacation of a lifetime.
