food IS a theme park
The wait is almost over!
Guardians of the Galaxy Ride
Disney recently announced that EPCOT’s brand new Guardians of the Galaxy ride (Guardians of the Galaxy: Cosmic Rewind) will open on May 27th, 2022, and Cast Members will get a special preview of it. But, Cast Members aren’t the only ones who will get the chance to get a peek inside this exciting new ride before the general public… .
Star Wars characters get a TON of merchandise themed after them, and while we do love Grogu, it’s fun to see other characters get some of the spotlight!
Grogu is everywhere
One fan favorite character who is getting more and more recognition is Ahsoka Tano (who is also getting her own Disney+ series!). And now, there is another cool item coming soon that you gotta check out for yourself!
It seems like every time we turn around Loungefly is releasing a new Disney product. We’ve seen the new Mickey Pretzel Backpack, the Snow White Cake Bag (which we’re still confused about, by the way), and even a Loungefly bag for the Purple Wall in Magic Kingdom.
Purple Wall Loungefly Backpack
Now, Loungefly is releasing a new Disney-inspired bag that is kind of…scary looking?
We have seen a lot of price increases at Disney World lately, like on food and merchandise.
Dole Whip got an increase at Aloha Isle.
But, prices are also increasing for things that go along with your Disney World vacation, like for plane tickets. Inflation has been affecting many things around the country, and Disney is no exception. Gas prices going up have also been a major issue recently, and now, they have gone up again near Disney World.
We’re planning our coolest cosmic outfits and stretching our legs for the BIG day — who’s with us? Wait, we should probably REWIND and do a little more explaining. Disney just announced that the new Guardians of the Galaxy: Cosmic Rewind attraction is opening on May 27th, 2022. No more pausing or stopping, we’re fast-forwarding to the grand opening date; it will be here in no time!
The Guardians of the Galaxy: Cosmic Rewind attraction is coming SOON!
As with most new Disney attractions, a few special groups of people will get an exclusive preview of the Cosmic Rewind attraction. In a recent Instagram post, Disney World Resort president Jeff Vahle made an exciting announcement. Let’s take a look!
Sometimes things go wrong in Disney World. It can be something minor, like forgetting a poncho when it rains, or something major, like losing your wallet. But, some things are just simply out of your control — like how the rides run in the parks.
Tower of Terror temporarily closed
Rides can shut down without warning for a number of reasons like weather or technical difficulties. Sometimes you can even be ON the rides when they shut down and need to be evacuated. This is a unique experience in Disney World, as you usually get to see parts of the ride others don’t. So, if you’ve ever wanted to see what these evacuations can look like without getting stuck on a ride, we’ve got ya covered!
If you believe that elephants can fly, it’s time to whip out that wallet.
Sweet Dumbo
Sure, maybe you’ve already collected many Dumbo plushes, mugs, a collectible key, and more, but we bet there’s one thing you don’t have: a Dumbo Dooney & Bourke bag! But that’s about to change because a new Dumbo collection flew into Disney World!
Think you have enough Minnie ears? Think again!
Can you EVER have enough?
Just when we think our collection is complete, Disney has to release new ears that we just can’t resist! Recently we’ve seen Orange Bird ears, Alice in Wonderland ears, Space Mountain ears, and even $300 designer ears. And now, there is a new color of Minnie ears available online that is perfect for spring!
Disney World is NOT the same place that it was before – a year, two years, even a month ago.
Animal Kingdom
And why does that matter? Because it could MAJORLY impact your upcoming return to the parks!
If you thought that new 50th anniversary merchandise was done being released in Disney World, you were wrong, friend!
LOTS of merchandise!
But, we wouldn’t have blamed you for thinking that in the first place, because Disney has released SO much merchandise already. There was the whole Vault Collection, some awesome light-up ears, special Spirit Jerseys, fun popcorn buckets, and more. And, Disney recently announced 4 NEW collections coming in for the 50th anniversary, and we’ve just spotted one of the brand new pieces!
