food IS a theme park
Earlier this year, Disneyland shocked us all when they announced a project known as DisneylandForward. This announcement perhaps left us with more questions than answers, and since that time, there haven’t really been any updates!
Sleeping Beauty Castle
Today, we thought we’d check in with all things DisneylandForward, including a recap on what exactly this project is (and isn’t, at least not yet!), and where it currently stands.
Can you believe it’s almost the end of 2021 and the beginning of 2022?
We’ll miss you, Magical Express
And there are a LOT of changes coming to Disney World in the New Year. We’ll see the grand opening of the new Star Wars Hotel, the opening of the Guardians of the Galaxy: Cosmic Rewind ride, and the end of the Magical Express. The Magical Express is the complimentary transportation service to and from Orlando International Airport for guests staying at Disney World resorts.
Guess what? Celebrities are sometimes just like us and they love Disney World, too!

And this is why you can often see celebrities hanging out in the parks, whether they’re there in an official capacity, or just having fun with family and friends, or celebrating a special occasion. But if you want to go celebrity spotting at Disney World, there are certain times you just might spot them!
When it comes to dining outside of the Disney World parks, Disney Springs has no shortage of options. Whether you’re looking for a quick (but DELICIOUS) meal at Chicken Guy! or a nice sit-down experience by the water, there’s truly something for everyone.
There is so much to see and do in Disney Springs!
If you’re looking for an atmospheric, well-themed restaurant with some incredible food, The Edison might be the place for you! This “Industrial Gothic”-style restaurant has live entertainment, fun drinks, and even some bacon on a clothesline! We’ve had some fun meals at this little restaurant tucked deep back in Disney Springs, but recently we noticed some price changes that you should know about.
Happy Holidays to all our DFB Friends!

It’s hard to believe the holiday season is almost over, and 2022 is right around the corner. We’re looking forward to seeing some fun New Year’s treats, as well as welcoming a New Year at Disney World. But that doesn’t mean we’ve stopped monitoring menu changes at Disney World restaurants, so here’s what’s changed this week.
In case you’ve been living under a thoroughly NON-magical rock, Disney World’s 50th Anniversary Celebration is going strong! And the anniversary snacks are going even STRONGER!

Ever since October 1st, Disney’s been stepping up its snack game BIG time, and this is particularly true of one Disney specialty in particular: CUPCAKES.

To ensure we are equipping our readers with all the information they need, we will continue to report on all travel, safety, and COVID-related news that could impact a Disney Parks visit.
Disney World has gone through several changes since March 2020. From increased health and safety measures to attraction closures, Disney has worked to adapt and change in the midst of a global pandemic. As 2022 approaches, the pandemic continues to impact the world, including the state of Florida where Disney World is located.
EPCOT
Now, as the Omicron variant continues to spread across the country, the state of Florida is setting records as cases surge.
Disney World is both very magical and very busy during the holiday season.

If you’re heading into the parks this week to enjoy the holiday decorations and festive treats, be prepared for some big crowds during your trip! We’re taking a look at everything that will be closed for refurbishment over this next week so that you don’t get caught off guard during your holiday vacation.
