food IS a theme park
Happy Halloween! No, it’s not too early — it’s Halloween and we’ll take no arguments against that right now.
Halloween Time
Now that spooky season has arrived, we are so excited to start seeing the Halloween decorations beginning to pop up in Magic Kingdom. We’re even MORE excited about all the Halloween snacks that are coming to Disney World parks, hotels, and Disney Springs. Bring on the SPOOKY food! But the spookiest thing that might be arriving soon (as in NEXT WEEK) is returning, too.Â
Disney World does quite a few refurbishments throughout the year!
Caribbean Beach Resort
From ride closures to hotel room updates to things like gift shop facelifts, we often see construction equipment out and about when wandering around the property. And now, we’ve got a refurbishment update for one popular resort!
Ready or not, Halloween is coming up FAST — at least if you’re using Disney’s calendar!

Disney World is known for the iconic Mickey’s Not-So-Scary Halloween Party in Magic Kingdom, and of course, there’s the incredibly popular Oogie Boogie Bash at Disneyland. But, there’s another Disneyland Halloween tradition we look forward to every year — and it’s finally here!
We look forward to all of Disney World’s seasonal events!
The EPCOT Food and Wine Festival
We love all of EPCOT’s festivals and the Halloween and Christmas parties that are thrown every year. Our patience is tested as we wait for Disney to release all the information and details for each of these seasonal events. And while we have been twiddling our thumbs waiting for the full menus for this year’s Food & Wine Festival and more info on the holiday parties, we happened to spot a couple of brand new webpages that Disney added that may give us some clues about these events!
We don’t mean to alarm you, but are you ready for one of the most exciting events of the year at Disney World?
2023 EPCOT Food & Wine Festival
We’re talking about the EPCOT Food & Wine Festival, which will bring a TON of food AND wine to outdoor food kitchens all around EPCOT. Then there’s the entertainment: the Eat to the Beat concert series will return this year with some fan-favorite performers like Boyz II Men, Sugar Ray, Smashmouth, Hanson, and more. It’s going to be 🔥🔥🔥. Well, we need to let you know that we are only ONE MONTH AWAY from the EPCOT Food & Wine Festival. Are you ready?
Disney World is in a constant state of change, and that means that construction is inevitable. While sometimes inconvenient, construction usually leads to even better experiences once it is done.
Pop Century Resort
A beloved Disney World hotel is adding construction walls to its decor beginning today and we headed over to check out what the construction looks like!
In case you’ve been living under a rock, one of the biggest sporting events in the world is happening right now!

Okay, technically the Olympics are a bunch of sporting events all rolled into one, but whatever. You might be wondering who the breakout star of this year’s games is — perhaps literal queen Simone Biles? But, if you ask us, the stars of this year’s Olympics aren’t even athletes at all.
Hey, DFB readers!
Magic Kingdom
Are you headed to the Disney World parks soon? If so, we know how fun it is to create the perfect look for your day. It’s always fun to theme your outfit to the park you are visiting that day. Headed to Magic Kingdom? A princess shirt might be what you need! Going on a safari in Animal Kingdom? Perhaps you need some stripes or spots. Don’t worry, when it comes to the perfect park shirt and outfit, we’ve got you covered!
So, you’ve just landed at the Orlando International Airport (MCO). How are we getting to Disney World?
Orlando International Airport
When you’re thinking of your transport options, you’ve got the classic options like taxis, Uber/Lyft, or even the “dreaded” airport shuttle and we haven’t even considered renting a car. But you’ve got another option to consider (no I’m not talking about the Mears Connect bus). Have you considered booking an SUV? Hear me out now. Let’s talk about it! [Read more…]
There are MORE benefits to staying at a Disney World hotel these days!
Port Orleans Resort — French Quarter
