As the Halloween Season slowly transitions into the Holidays, Disney’s online store is offering a litany of deals and discounts! If you want to bang out some Christmas shopping or simply pick up a little something for yourself, get over there ASAP.
We’ve only got a few weeks left for one of Disney World’s biggest events of the year!
Food & Wine Festival
The EPCOT International Food & Wine Festival kicked off in August with dozens of food booths and new items. We were there opening weekend to try out all the eats and check out all the news. One of the big problems on opening day is that there was a delay with one of the food booths…but now we’ve got an update!
Did you know there’s a billion-dollar resort near Disney World?

It’s called Evermore Orlando Resort, and y’all, this resort has EVERYTHING. You’ve got traditional hotel rooms. You’ve got whole houses. You’ve got eight acres with a crystal-clear lagoon, tons of activities, golf, and so much more. When we say that Evermore is impressive, we mean IT IS IMPRESSIVE. It’s almost a destination in and of itself. However, it’s just 15 minutes from Disney World, meaning it could be a great option for your next Disney World trip. We recently got to stay in a 5-bedroom house, and we’re bringing you with us for a full tour.
While we love to stay on property at Disney World, this off-property resort makes us rethink everything we thought we knew.Â
House at Evermore
Evermore Resort is a massive, one-billion-dollar resort located outside of Disney World. It features five to eleven bedroom vacation rental homes. While prices can change based on the size of your home, dates, and the number of people in your party, a stay can range from $1,379 to $3,880 per night. Each vacation home has a heated saltwater pool, a kitchen, and access to 2/3 miles of beachfront, a bay filled with 17 million gallons of water. While all of that is super impressive, we got to try a next-level in-home experience!
It’s a big day over in Disneyland! Yes, we’re over on the West Coast checking out a brand new offering in the park.
Sleeping Beauty Castle
As we previously reported, Disneyland’s Lightning Lane Premier Pass is officially available in the Disneyland app, and we purchased it to try it out to give you ALL the details on the service. So, yes, we paid $400 per person to get Lightning Lane Premier Pass and we’ve been hitting up rides that offer it. But the biggest question we know YOU have is “Is it worth it?” Well, we’re going to break it down for you.
Both Disneyland and Disney World threw us for a spin earlier this month when they announced the release of Lighting Lane Premier Pass for both coasts.

This is in addition to Lightning Lane Multi Pass and Single Pass currently available at both resorts but work differently from one another. Premier Pass also has different rules depending on which coast you’re visiting, but in Disneyland, it’s open for all guests willing to pay $400 a day, so we knew we had to try it out to tell you what we thought — here’s just how fast you can get through EVERYTHING included in Lightning Lane Premier Pass in Disneyland.
MagicBands have had their moment — or have they???
Tron Lightcycle / Run MagicBand+
These little wearable pieces of tech can put all of Disney World at your fingertips. A MagicBand (or MagicBand+) can act as your park ticket, room key, credit card, Lightning Lane pass, and more. They’ve gone through a few updates here and there, and while the initial hype has died down, they’re still incredibly popular among fans — but not all of them.Â
Over the summer, the BoardWalk got a highly anticipated addition.
Blue Ribbon Corn Dogs
Blue Ribbon Corn Dogs finally came to the East Coast after being a fan favorite at Disneyland’s Downtown Disney for years. This corn dog stand is known for its giant corn dogs. These are not just your average classic corn dogs; nope, Blue Ribbon Corn Dogs takes it up a notch and has a menu that features a Mexican Street Dog and their famous Pickle Dog. Well, something new is coming to their menu this week, and we are trying to figure out just exactly what it is!
One of the most difficult things that can happen when you’re planning a Disney World trip is trying to figure out a budget.
Cinderella’s Royal Table
It doesn’t help that we often see price increases on things, which could change just how much you’ll need for trip. We recently saw a price increase announced for tickets in 2025 and we’ve seen the highest price YET for Lightning Lane Multi Pass. Well, now, we’ve seen a TON of price increases for Disney World restaurants.
We get that change is inevitable — especially at Disney World –but that doesn’t always mean it’s necessary.
Magic Kingdom
This year has been PACKED with new theme park additions and changes, including several Lightning Lane adjustments. With the existence of Lightning Lane Multi Pass and Lightning Lane Single Pass in addition to the future rollout of Lightning Lane Premier Pass, Lightning Lane access has never been higher — which spells trouble for standby lines at Disney World.
