food IS a theme park
It’s official! Disney World’s 50th anniversary celebration has kicked off!
Animal Kingdom Lodge
Not only have we been in all four theme parks today, but we’ve visited the resorts to see how they are getting in on the celebrations! A good amount of Disney World’s long list of 50th anniversary treats are at the resorts, so let’s check out one of the sweet treats at Disney’s Animal Kingdom Lodge!
Disney World’s 50th Anniversary Celebration is here!
Happy Birthday, Disney World!
And we’re busy checking out all the food, entertainment, character outfits, and more! But what’s more iconic than Disney World balloons? YES! Even the famous Disney balloons have become part of the big celebration.
Disney World’s 50th Anniversary celebrations have officially begun!
50th Anniversary Banners
There are lots of new things to enjoy as part of The World’s Most Magical Celebration, including new fireworks shows, new merchandise, new statues, a new cavalcade, and much more! But, you can’t forget about those new snacks! Over 100 new food and drink items will be coming to Disney World as part of the 50th Anniversary (stretchy pants WILL be necessary). Today, we made our way over to Disney’s Hollywood Studios to try one of the shimmery new treats!
What a food-filled day this has been at Magic Kingdom! We’ve been trying brand-new food and drink items in celebration of Disney World’s 50th Anniversary, including treats from Aloha Isle, Pecos Bill Tall Tale Inn & Cafe, and Columbia Harbour House!
Westward Ho
Our next stop is Westward Ho Refreshments in Frontierland where we ordered a rather unassuming snack (especially compared to some of those extravagant cupcakes we’ve tried today).
Disney World sure does know how to throw a birthday party!
Figment!
And, while we typically settle for a small dessert table at our birthday parties, Disney World has outdone themselves and brought OVER 150 new eats and drinks to the parks and resorts for the 50th Anniversary! So far we’ve tried a funnel cake hot dog, a bathtub of ice cream (yes, really), and more, but, it wouldn’t be a real party without some cake, right? Well, that’s why we’re headed over to EPCOT to have our cake and eat it too!
It’s Disney World’s 50th anniversary and Disney is celebrating with tons of FOOD!
Cinderella Castle
There are over 150 treats coming to Disney World for the 50th anniversary including a sundae with an ENTIRE Mickey pretzel on top and treats featuring edible gold. Today, we’ve been giving you live updates and reviews of each 50th anniversary treat as we try them, but now it’s time for a SPOOKY treat!
We are having a BLAST exploring Disney World’s 50th Anniversary today!
50th Banners
Disney World is abuzz today as the 18-month anniversary celebrations kick off in all four parks. We’ve seen new entertainment, crowds, and (you know it) new EATS. We’ve also found that each of the parks has its own little change that helps to bring the birthday magic — a new park map!
It’s finally the BIG day!
Wilderness Lodge
Today is Disney World’s 50th anniversary! We’ve been taking you LIVE with us around the theme parks and resorts to show you the latest in food, decor, merchandise, entertainment, and more. Right now, we’re checking out the celebrations happening at Disney’s Wilderness Lodge and they’ve got a brand new treat to celebrate the anniversary!
We’ve been keeping track of all the Halloween treats available around Disney World.
Cinderella Pumpkins
So far we’ve seen some chocolate Haunted Mansion eclairs, an adorable Halloween lunch box tart, just about all the pumpkin spice we can handle, and much, much more. Now we’re checking out an old favorite that’s returned to Disney’s Animal Kingdom, so…be prepared. (Sorry. We had to.)
New snacks, merchandise, and fireworks — Disney World’s 50th Anniversary celebration has all that and MORE!
We love you, Mickey!
We’ve been making our way through the parks and resorts today to check out some of the brand new offerings. And while there are lots of new snacks that are quite unique, sometimes there’s nothing wrong with getting a classic snack that has a bit of a 50th Anniversary twist. That’s just what we found over at Disney’s Contemporary Resort!
