food IS a theme park
Disney World has some pretty incredible hotel rooms, but there’s one that stands out above the rest.
Magic Kingdom
The incredibly exclusive Castle Suite, located INSIDE Cinderella Castle, is not even a room you can typically pay to book. In the past, people could win a stay by donating to a good cause or maybe catch a glimpse by paying for a pricey tour. Well, if you’ve always dreamed of staying inside this unique room, there’s a big update you need to know about!
If you’ve been to EPCOT recently, you know that the park is in the middle of a MASSIVE transformation.
EPCOT
With all the construction walls in the middle of the park, you might be wondering when the work will FINALLY be finished! Well, it looks like one of the projects is getting closer to wrapping up — Disney just shared a first look at a NEW mural coming to CommuniCore Hall! [Read more…]
Magic Kingdom is going through some big changes!
Cinderella Castle
Tiana’s Bayou Adventure is in the works, the Hatbox Ghost will be making his way to Haunted Mansion, and soon we’ll be getting new character meet-and-greets! Earlier this year, we learned that characters from the Madrigal family would be making their way to Magic Kingdom. Mirabel is set to take over Fairytale Garden, the old Merida meet-and-greet, and her Uncle Bruno would be popping up in the park as well. And now, we have details of when he will arrive!
Earlier this year, Tokyo Dining in the Japan Pavilion of EPCOT closed for good, and was replaced by Shiki-Sai: Sushi Izakaya.
Shiki-Sai
The news regarding this restaurant has been a bit hectic to say the least. We found out that Shiki-Sai would be coming to the Japan Pavilion back in July, and then within the past week, we learned that it would open on August 30th, but then they changed it to August 28th, and then they also released the menu, and THENNNN they opened dining reservations. (The last three things all happened in the same day, BTW.) Oh, but then the biggest kicker of them all was that when we went to EPCOT we discovered that Shiki-Sai was open for walk-ins. Yeah, how’s that for a chaotic day?
There are lots of changes going on in Disney World right now.
Cinderella Castle
Construction is all over the place, and we know that more changes are coming to the parks next year. The truth is that things will stay changing at Disney World for a while to come. If you’re headed into Magic Kingdom soon, you need to know that a NEW meet and greet is coming and we officially know when!
A BRAND NEW restaurant has opened in EPCOT. What does it look like? What food does it offer? Don’t worry, we’re taking YOU inside this new spot with us!
EPCOT’s Japan Pavilion
Shiki-Sai: Sushi Izakaya is the latest restaurant to join the Disney scene and it offers an experience unlike anything else you’ve had in Disney World. The restaurant is located on the second floor of the Japan pavilion in EPCOT, is a table service location, and offers a “festive dining experience in a sharable Izakaya-style” (according to Disney) complete with sushi, all kinds of small dishes to enjoy, and an ever-changing experience that’ll celebrate different Japanese festivals each month. Ready to take a look inside this new spot? Let’s GO!
Disney World is full of changes.
Magic Kingdom
EPCOT is undergoing a huge transformation and will include Journey of Water — Inspired by Moana, Communicore Hall, The Dreamer’s Statue, and much more. Even small changes are happening like the Hatbox Ghost coming to the Haunted Mansion. If you are already planning your 2024 Disney World trip, you’ll want to know how staying at a Disney World hotel will be different next year.
If you thought you had seen everything the 2023 EPCOT Food & Wine Festival has to offer — you would be WRONG!
Noodles Exchange
The festival kicked off back in July, but Disney is keeping us on our toes by opening up some food booths LATE! Throughout the festival, there are plenty of food booths, merchandise items, and concerts too. But now we’re heading to one spot in particular — the Noodle Exchange — to let you know if it’s worth your time and money!
When you’re in Disney World, it’s important to plan for the unexpected.
Disney’s Hollywood Studios
Transportation challenges can arise, weather can impact your experience, and rides can shut down without notice. Sometimes, when rides go down for technical difficulties, they can be back up and running in no time. Unfortunately, sometimes the problem isn’t quite so simple. Today, one of the most popular rides in Disney’s Hollywood Studios was having some unique challenges that prevented visitors from getting to ride.
Halloween has kicked off in Disney World.
Halloween in Magic Kingdom
Magic Kingdom is full of Mickey pumpkin wreaths, scarecrows, and festive holiday decorations. The first Mickey’s Not-So-Scary Halloween Party has happened with many parties to follow this Halloween season. If you are not going to the party on your visit, here’s why you should STILL go to Magic Kingdom that day.
