Since Disney World’s 50th Anniversary started last weekend, there’s a lot of new things around the parks.
Tree of Life With 50th Banner
We spotted lots of merchandise, TONS of new snacks and treats, and a few new shows around Disney World. Today we’re looking at Disney’s Animal Kingdom to check out what’s new in this park since the 50th arrived. [Read more…]
In a galaxy not far, far away, people will soon be able to “board” the Star Wars: Galactic Starcruiser (aka the Star Wars hotel) for a 2-night immersive Star Wars experience in Disney World.

Disney is still releasing information about what’s included in this 2-night itinerary, which carries a hefty price tag, and you’ll probably want to know about one Galaxy’s Edge spot that is NOT included in the price of a Star Wars hotel reservation. So if you’re budgeting for a visit to a galaxy far, far away — read on.
We hope you’re ready for October because Disney World is changing BIG TIME.

There are nine big changes happening at Disney World this month, so if you have a trip planned, here’s what you need to know.
Steakhouse 71 recently opened at Disney’s Contemporary Resort, taking the place of The Wave…of American Flavors.
We ordered a flight of sauces!
We’ve shared a look at this spot’s menu, and FULL reviews of breakfast, lunch, and dinner here. But, what if you’re planning to visit Disney World during a holiday? Well, if you’re looking to celebrate Thanksgiving or Christmas at Steakhouse 71, you’re in luck!
Disney World’s 50th Anniversary brought a LOT of new and delicious snacks to the parks and resorts.
Happy 50th Everyone!
We tried sparkly Dole Whips, GIANT ice cream sundaes, lots of classic treats that got 50th-themed updates, and so much more. Basically, our tongues were VERY blue from all of the treats we tried. There’s one delicious treat that you won’t find in the four theme parks at Disney World, and it’s got a bonus feature: there’s no blue dye involved at all!
Even though many new offerings arrived at Disney World this week, there are still several things to come!
Star Wars Galactic Starcruiser
We’re anticipating the completion of the EPCOT transformation, watching the construction progress on the Tron coaster, and hoping to visit Journey of Water — Inspired by Moana ASAP. However, one thing that we HAVE experienced is Star Wars: Galactic Starcruiser!
Disney World’s 50th anniversary celebration is now in full swing, and this event will last a whopping 18 months.
Disney Enchantment
Disney has changed a lot for the 50th anniversary, including new fireworks shows, new nighttime Disney Park icon lighting, and LOTS of new merchandise. They’re also making a big change to a smaller Disney World item, and it may be your new favorite Disney souvenir.
Star Wars: Galactic Starcruiser will be opening on March 1, 2022 at Walt Disney World!

The hotel is going to be completely immersive, with characters, storylines, and activities to make you feel like you’re actually in the world of Star Wars. Much of this is included in the cost of your stay, but there will be other experiences you can add on, and we just learned the cost of one special experience!
Muppets Haunted Mansion is premiering this Friday, October 8th, on Disney+ and we can’t WAIT!

This special will feature all of your favorite muppets, new original songs, celebrity guests, and more! Want to grab some Muppets Haunted Mansion merchandise to show your love for this special? Disney has released some new Muppets Haunted Mansion items, but there’s a slight catch, because not everyone can order this collection. Do you qualify to buy these new items? [Read more…]
