Just yesterday we noticed that Star Wars: Galactic Starcruiser, the upcoming Star Wars hotel experience, is HIRING. This immersive accommodation is supposed to be a whole new kind of experience. Now, just after taking the BIG staffing step, we spotted another sign of progress!
2021 is the 70th anniversary of Disney’s Alice and Wonderland!
Magic Kingdom
To celebrate, we’ve checked out a new clothing collection, waved at Alice in the parks, and closely followed the refurb going down at the Mad Tea Party. But when we stopped by Uptown Jewelers in Magic Kingdom today, we spotted another reason to celebrate! There’s a new Alice in Wonderland Pandora line of jewelry. Happy unbirthday to us!
It might surprise you just how much work Disney has going on behind the scenes!
Animal Kingdom
We tend to keep an eye on all the different building permits that Disney is filing to see what kind of work they might be doing that would impact guests — visible AND behind-the-scenes. Well, we spotted a few signs of construction on some of your favorite attractions!
We love to explore Disney World, don’t you?
Disney’s Beach Club Resort
We’re checking out all of the latest updates at some of our favorite Disney World Resort hotels! Join us over at the EPCOT area resorts to see all the latest in food, construction, and merchandise!
While there’s lots to enjoy in Disney Springs any time of year, lately there have been quite a few special offerings available there.
Disney Springs
In February, we got all kinds of displays, music, and special cakes for Black History Month. We also recently shared how Cast Members can get a special discount at one spot, and some details about a new whiskey event coming soon. And now another special offering is on its way to Disney Springs, and this one’s made for beer fans!
The Cinderella Castle construction continues.
Cinderella Castle
We’ve been following the progress around the castle closely. Last week, the stage was covered in scrim while bushes hid the work from guests. Just a few days ago, that stage was stripped down to plywood! And let’s not forget that the moat surrounding the castle is now totally drained.
It feels like only yesterday we were coming at you LIVE from the 2020 EPCOT International Flower & Garden Festival, which was cut drastically short by Disney World’s temporary closures that began just a couple of weeks later. It may be hard to believe, but it’s already time once again for the festival to begin!
Spaceship Earth
As we head into the month of March, let’s take a look at our weekly roundup of Disney World’s park hours and Park Pass Reservation availability for the week of February 28th.
Got 999 Haunted Mansion-themed items? Well, you know what they say…there’s room for 1,000!
Last year, Dooney & Bourke released a collection of drop-dead gorgeous bags themed to the Mansion. These bags were full of characters and details from the ride including the singing busts, Madame Leota, the bride, and much more. And while the bags from that collection were released months ago, something NEW for Haunted Mansion fans with a similar look has now materialized in Disney World.
You may have heard about the shoe battle goin’ on in Disney World.
EPCOT
Disney’s collaboration with Native shoes might be trying to give Crocs a run for their money! Not only are the Ked-like sneakers a HUGE hit with parents, but they come in Mickey and Minnie-inspired designs. But…what about the OG Disney shoes? Have we forgotten about Crocs?
EPCOT’s 2021 Flower and Garden Festival is on its way!
2020 Flower and Garden Festival
We’ve gotten a peek at all the menus, some fun activities, and even new merchandise (Orange Bird sipper, we’re lookin’ at you)! But even though the festival doesn’t start until March 3rd, we’ve already spotted a BIG sign that Flower and Garden is on its way: the topiaries throughout the park!
