Today, Disney unveiled a new playground to commemorate the occasion at EPCOT!
Disney implemented a lot of new health and safety measures when they reopened last year.

Face mask requirements, no-touch entry, a lot more mobile order options, and more were all part of the new health and safety rules in Disney World. Now, one of these changes is going back to normal in the parks for the first time since Disney World reopened.
If you’re heading to Disney World this fall, there are a few things you need to know!
The 50th is almost here!
The 50th Anniversary celebration kicks off on October 1st, meaning that it’s likely going to be crowded through the rest of this year. There are also new planning tools for your vacation, including the Disney Genie service that launches soon. And if you’re staying at a Disney World Resort, then you need to know about the new Early Theme Park Entry perk!
Disney Princess fans — it is YOUR week to shine!
Elsa and Anna
Today marks the first day of World Princess Week, and Disney World is celebrating in a bunch of different ways! There is new merchandise, Princess-themed treats, and even a special playground dedicated to Tiana in EPCOT. But today, we’re trying out a NEW cupcake in Disney World based on the Frozen franchise!
Today we got a glimpse into the future of The Princess and the Frog retheming plans for Splash Mountain in Disney World and Disneyland.
Splash Mountain
Disney shared a roundtable discussion in which the panel discussed the new Mardis Gras finale plans for Splash Mountain, new characters, and concept art. There was one interesting comment made about the future for Princess Tiana, and we can’t help but wonder what it means!
No matter how much planning you do for your Walt Disney World vacation, some things are just out of your control!
Rain in EPCOT
The weather can be unpredictable, your favorite snack could be mysteriously missing, and rides can break down with no opening in sight. And, that’s exactly what’s been going on with a ride in EPCOT lately!Â
Disney World’s Extended Evening Hours is replacing the Extra Magic Hours program for now. This new offering will allow qualified guests to stay later in select Disney parks.
EPCOT’s Spaceship Earth
We’ve seen the hours and dates available through October 20th so far, but Disney just released even MORE dates on the schedule for the extra hours.
Popcorn is a quintessential Disney World snack. It may have a reputation for being a little messy (raise your hand if you’ve witnessed a popcorn spill in Disney), but who could pass up such a classic Disney treat?
Sweet, salty, savory, we love it all!
Recently, Loungefly released the ultimate tribute to Disney popcorn in the form of a mini backpack, but now we’ve found some matching footwear to accompany the bag!
Love spending a little extra time in the Disney World theme parks at night? Well, if you’re staying at a Disney World Deluxe Resort, a Deluxe Villa, or other select hotels, you could get the chance to do just that with Disney’s new hotel perk — Extended Evening Hours.
Cinderella Castle
Extended Evening Hours, which will begin in October, allows guests at Disney World Deluxe Resorts, Deluxe Villa Resorts, or other select hotels to stay in select parks on certain nights for an extended period of time. So far we’ve shared a look at some of the dates that have been announced for this special perk, but now Disney has released the list of rides that will be open during these special evening hours!
Shoutout to all the Disney collectors out there!
Stitch Crashes the Little Mermaid
In Disney’s newest series of collectibles, the adorable alien Stitch is crashing into a series of Disney movies. We’ve seen him crash The Lion King, Aladdin, Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs, Pinocchio, and more! The seventh collection in this series is the Stitch Crashes Sleeping Beauty, which is already available online — but now you can get them in the parks too! Here’s where to look.
