What’s CHANGED at Rock ‘n’ Roller Coaster After Its LONG Closure?

By Brian Delpozo 11 Comments

A long Disney World refurbishment has FINALLY ended!

Rock is BACK!

Hollywood Studios’ Rock ’n’ Roller Coaster Starring Aerosmith bid adieu for a long maintenance and refurbishment project in January, and remained closed for the duration of the year since. Initially, the coaster was listed as reopening in the “summer of 2024.” In late spring, Walt Disney World’s calendar was updated to show the ride would first be operating on July 27th. Last week, that changed to July 1st, which was the date we were “sure” of… until this weekend.

No One’s Talking About this NEW Magic Kingdom Cast Member Thing, But They Should Be

By Jessica Wedinger 1 Comment

There has been a change on Main Street, U.S.A., recently, but it may not be very obvious to some.

Main Street

Disney World has seen so many changes over the last few years! From additions like Tron Lightcycle / Run and Tiana’s Bayou Adventure in Magic Kingdom to the completion of the EPCOT Transformation, Disney World has been in a state of change. And this is good. Walt once said that Disneyland will never be completed, and the same goes for Disney World! Well, recently, there was a new change on Main Street, but this time, it benefitted Cast Members!

Magic Kingdom Is Completely SOLD OUT on an Important Day This Week

By Sara McOmber Leave a Comment

This weekend is going to be a BUSY one at Magic Kingdom!

Main Street U.S.A. Train Station

It can be tough to predict how busy a Disney World theme park will be on any given day, but there are a few indicators that the experts know to watch for. For example, holidays or days when many people have work and school off are almost always very busy. Also, if park passes are sold out for Annual Passholders and other select ticket holders, you know that lots of people are planning to visit the parks. On one day this week, both of those are true!

Disneyland

Disney World and Disneyland have a ton of differences. Featuring different accommodations, attractions, dining options, and entertainment, visiting each resort will result in wildly different experiences.

Don’t Even TRY To Rope Drop This Ride in Disney World

By Robin Burks 1 Comment

EVERYONE has their own park strategy for Disney World, especially when it comes to rides.

Magic Kingdom entrance

Many of us are not going to get up early to rope drop, no matter what (we like our sleep). We’ll just get Genie+ (Disney’s paid skip-the-line service) and hit a ride’s Lightning Lane (the exclusive, paid, shorter line) later if it’s available (although with the new Genie+ changes, sleeping in may be a bit more convenient). Others are going to be at the parks BEFORE they open, either using Early Theme Park Entry, or standing in line at the front gates to get in for rope drop — then we’re going to speed walk to our favorite attractions. If you fall into that latter category, there’s one ride in Disney World you won’t be able to rope drop — even if you try.

We know everyone is still REELING over the HUGE Genie+ changes, not to mention those food changes at Sleepy Hollow Refreshments in Magic Kingdom (oh, Fruit and Nutella Waffle Sandwich, we will MISS you so much).
