food IS a theme park
If you’re heading to Disney World soon for the 50th Anniversary Celebration, make sure you have room for food — somewhere in the neighborhood of 150+ new bites and sips. We aren’t kidding, there are over one hundred new food and drink items for fans to enjoy at the parks and resorts!
Fort Wilderness Resort & Campground
Today, we made our way to P&J’s Southern Takeout at Disney’s Fort Wilderness Resort & Campgrounds to try a 50th Anniversary treat that takes a sweet twist on a classic dinner!
Happy October! After MONTHS of preparing and waiting for the 50th Anniversary Celebration this month, it’s finally here! So much has changed in Disney World since the beginning of the year; it would take a novel to break down all the changes and announcements since January.
Disney’s New Enchantment Fireworks Show
Instead, let’s look back at all the new things we found out in September! (There’s a lot — see if you remembered it all!)
Disney World has been very busy with the 50th Anniversary lately, but you can still spot fall decorations up on Main Street, U.S.A., which means Halloween is on its way!
It’s Fall in the Magic Kingdom!
If you’re in the parks this season, you can check out the Haunted Mansion-themed pre-show over at Muppet*Vision 3D, try some new spooky treats, or head to Boo Bash in the Magic Kingdom. But what can you do to celebrate a Disney-themed Halloween at home? How about a little seasonal shopping spree? We’ve got some frightfully fantastic new products to show you that’ll help transform your home for the upcoming holiday.
We’ve seen many things reopen over the course of the last year and a half.
Disney World is slowly returning to normal!
We’ve had hotels, restaurants, and even entertainment options all come back slowly. Now, more entertainment is returning to Animal Kingdom, and we’ve got all the details on what you can expect to see soon!
Although a lot has returned to normal in Disney World, we’re still missing a few things in the parks.
Disney’s Hollywood Studios
One of the most notable absences has been some of the entertainment, including some shows and character meetings. Today, Disney announced the return of select events, and we’re so excited to see them come back! One of the returning shows is happening soon in Disney’s most glamorous park.
Live entertainment is one of the things that makes a day at Disney World GREAT!
Beauty and the Beast –Live on Stage
Some of our favorite days at Disney include seeing iconic characters in the cavalcades, getting to sing along to Disney songs at shows, and ending the night with stunning firework displays! While a ton of entertainment has returned to the parks, there are still a few things missing. But, we just learned about when an exciting, popular show is going to return to the parks!
Over the past few months, we’ve been able to spot some of our favorite Disney friends in cavalcades, distanced character meet-and-greets, flotillas, and distanced character meals.
Hey There Friends!
If you’re a big fan of saying “hello” to the Disney princesses, Mickey, Minnie, and more, you’re in luck. Soon, character experiences in the park will be changing!
Disney World’s 50th Anniversary Celebration is off to an exciting start, with 150 new food and drink items around the parks and resorts, well over a hundred new merchandise items, not to mention new fireworks shows in both Magic Kingdom and EPCOT, a new daytime show in Disney’s Animal Kingdom…needless to say, there’s a lot of NEW stuff happening!
Be Our Guest
Those new food and drink items can be found at all four theme parks, including right here in Magic Kingdom. Recently we went to Be Our Guest Restaurant to check out their new menu offerings!
The 50th Anniversary of Disney World is here, which means we have a new fireworks show at Magic Kingdom– Disney Enchantment!
Disney Enchantment
Today, we checked out one of the THREE new dessert parties inside Magic Kingdom. Here’s your first look at the most literal-sounding dessert party name: Magic Kingdom’s Disney Enchantment Treats & Seats Dessert Party!
This past month has been one to remember when it comes to Disney World dining! From new restaurants opening to new menu items STILL showing up at the EPCOT International Food and Wine Festival, it feels like this has been one of the most jam-packed foodie months of 2021!
Cinderella Castle
Of course, with all of that food we’re trying out, there are going to be some winners…and unfortunately some losers. Today, we’re revisiting some of our top and bottom picks for what we had in the month of September around Disney World!
