food IS a theme park
Happy holidays from Disney World! The holiday season is in full swing with the EPCOT Festival of the Holidays and Very Merriest After Hours going on, which means there’s also plenty of holiday crowds.
Happy Holidays!
However, Genie+, the new paid FastPass replacement, is getting a MAJOR change for the holiday season that should help with those crowds!
We’re coming up on a new year; we can’t believe it’s already almost 2022!

If you’re planning a Disney World trip next year, we want to make sure you’re prepared. You can, of course, rely on DFB for all the tips and tricks you need to make sure your planning goes smoothly. This time, we’re telling you about seven Disney World MISTAKES you don’t want to make in 2022.
Disney World is HUGE! In just one day, you can rack up thousands of steps as you hop from place to place. Not only that, but you have to wake up pretty early if you want to rope drop, make a Lightning Lane selection, or grab a boarding group for a new attraction! Between all that walking and the EARLY mornings in the parks, most guests are pretty tired by the end of the day.
It’s a HAPPY day in the Magic Kingdom!
Since Disney World reopened in 2020, a popular (and maybe underrated) form of Disney transportation did not return…until NOW! After a long day in the Magic Kingdom, your feet are going to thank you for this! Â
Early Theme Park Entry is a free perk for Disney World Resort Hotel guests that lets them get into the parks half an hour early!
A foggy morning at Magic Kingdom!
This, along with Extended Evening Hours for Deluxe Resort guests, is one of the many reasons that it can pay off to stay at a Disney resort. Starting today, Early Theme Park Entry is going to be even better because of an added bonus!
If you’re planning to go to Disney World sometime this year, we bet you’re making a list of what tasty food you want to try!

And, a list is a good idea, because there are SO many different food items to choose from. Between the new restaurants, seasonal snacks, menu changes, and EPCOT festivals, it might seem like your list is just getting longer and longer. But, we’re here to help you narrow it down!
Although Disney World will always be the Most Magical Place On Earth, sometimes things happen that are less than magical.
The PeopleMover was evacuated for mechanical issues months before Disney World’s closures began!
Sometimes it’s just a matter of animatronics not working on rides. Sometimes, it’s animatronics being removed from rides and replaced with something bizarre (Plant Donald, we’re looking at you). Sometimes it’s a ride that just outright breaks down. And for the latter, rides will often get evacuated.
Disney World is known for change. Walt Disney’s wonderland has ALWAYS been about innovation and evolution, but never have we seen the kind of change Disney World went through in 2020 and 2021!
Main Street crowds
Through ALLLL the ups and downs over these past two years, there were a LOT of game-changing moments and epic changes like never before. This leaves us wondering what the future holds… .
Cavalcades have been a great way to meet characters in the Disney Parks while still keeping a safe distance!
Hi Pooh Bear!
Since the reopening of Walt Disney World last summer, cavalcades have become staple entertainment in the parks, and while they’re scheduled, you never really know who you’re gonna see! We’ve seen tons of different special cavalcades this year for the holidays, Halloween, and the 50th! Today, we got an unexpected visit in the Pixar Pals Motorcade in Disney’s Hollywood Studios!

Hello, everyone! Can you believe it’s almost Christmas? Boy, did it sneak up on us!
It’s the most wonderful time of the year…
Before we know it, it will be 2022! But until then, we’ll continue to keep an eye on all things 2021 at Disney World, like what’s been going on at the hotels (which are all decorated so beautifully this time of year). So let’s get on with the latest updates!
Disney World’s 50th Anniversary Celebration brought some pretty SWEET merchandise to the parks. And some of that merchandise has been very popular!
Happy 50th, Disney World!
From the EARidescent ears to the blingy Starbucks Tumblers to some super fancy $100 ornaments, we’ve watched a lot of this merchandise disappear fast. But the good news is that over the 18 months of the celebration, we still expect to see much of these items get restocked. And today, we’ve found a popular item that’s become available again!
