Disney World’s 50th Anniversary Celebration has been over since March, but there still are nods to the celebration in the parks.
Cinderella Castle
One of these biggest hints is the golden statues of Disney characters that were incorporated for the anniversary. However, these statues haven’t gone anywhere since the end of the celebration, and Disney recently announced they’d be updating them. Check out how they’ve changed in the parks!
We’ve got big news from over in EPCOT!
Imagination Pavilion
For months we’ve been missing all of the parking trams in Disney World. They had returned to Magic Kingdom and Animal Kingdom by mid-2022, but Disney only just recently announced they’d be returning to Disney’s Hollywood Studios and EPCOT. We spotted them back up and running in Hollywood Studios today, and now it’s EPCOT’s turn!
Look, we go to Disney World every day — and even though there’s always something to see and do, we can’t help but let our minds wander.
Spaceship Earth
What are we going to have for dinner tonight? What is the meaning of life? What are the little German villagers up to in EPCOT’s tiny train town up to today? It’s questions like these that keep us up at night, but luckily, we got the answer to at least one of them on a recent trip to the parks… and it doesn’t look good.
Everyone stay calm! It’s really happening!
Hollywood Studios
There’s one thing in Disney World that we’ve been missing for a LONG, LONG time (over three years). We’re talking about parking trams, which disappeared after Disney World reopened in 2020. However, the trams did finally return to Magic Kingdom and Animal Kingdom, but the other two parks were still missing theirs. Well, we’ve got some GREAT news about that.
One of our favorite things about the Disney World Skyliner is that from time to time, it boasts a new look!Â
Who’s up for a ride on the Skyliner?
If you didn’t already notice, many of the Skyliner gondolas feature themed wraps that showcase a several beloved Disney characters. There are Winnie the Pooh wraps, Mickey and Minnie wraps, and even ones with Star Wars characters! We just saw a brand NEW wrap, and we have a feeling that a few of you will be pretty excited about this one.

Yak and Yeti
You have to decide the best time to go based on crowds, figure out where you’re going to stay (on-property or off-property?!), and if it’s your first trip or maybe been a while, there are a lot of changes to keep up with, too — especially when it comes to dining. From new restaurants to app updates and more, we’re sharing the new ways that dining in Disney World has changed.Â
