food IS a theme park
Earlier this year we shared that Disney Cruise Line would be sailing again soon…but NOT in the way you might expect!
Ready to Go Cruisin’?
While the cruising situation from the U.S. continues to develop, this summer Disney Cruise Line will be debuting a WHOLE NEW cruising experience for those from the United Kingdom. And now we’ve got a bunch of details about those cruise itineraries and WHEN you’ll be able to book!
It’s almost summer in Disney World!

The lines have been long and the pools have been crowded as people enjoy the heat. And as Disney’s gearing up for the months ahead, they’re slowly releasing more park hours! We previously known these hours through June 19th. Now, Disney’s released when the parks will be open from June 20th through the 26th!
Disney is seriously blowing our minds with the fun news recently.

Not only did we hear when Avengers Campus is going to open, but we also got to see a REAL LIGHTSABER. Still, real-life energy sabers aren’t the ONLY exciting things that Disney surprised us with yesterday — Disney also showed a whole new kind of robot that we could see in the parks or elsewhere.
If Disney’s going for the Guinness World Record for most construction going on at one time, well, let’s just say we’d put them in the running!
Construction is Going on at Disney’s Contemporary Resort Now!
Right now, there’s construction going on at EPCOT as part of that park’s transformation, work being done on the TRON coaster in Magic Kingdom, new decorations being added to Cinderella Castle, lots of construction happening over at Disney’s Polynesian Village Resort, and MORE!! Construction has also now begun at Disney’s Contemporary Resort as select guest rooms at the hotel get some refurbishment and the inside of the hotel is looking…interesting.Â
What if we told you one of the BEST dessert spots in Disney World just got a little better?
mmmmm cookies
Gideon’s Bakehouse is one of the newest locations in Disney Springs and has already become WILDLY popular thanks to its DELICIOUS almost half-pound cookies. Now, this Orlando local bakery is bringing us a NEW treat to try.

Ah, the joy of sipping on a unique Coca-Cola creation from around the world and tricking your family members into drinking Beverly.
The Coca Cola Store Is So Cool
You can still sample some great Coca-Cola products and grab ALL kinds of soda-themed merchandise over at the Coca-Cola store and rooftop beverage bar in Disney Springs. But, Club Cool — the spot where you used to be able to sip on some free Coca-Cola samples and more in EPCOT — closed some time ago as part of the EPCOT transformation. Well, if you were a fan of Club Cool, it’s time to GET EXCITED!!! Club Cool will be coming BACK to EPCOT soon!!
We’ve seen some major changes at EPCOT recently.

As the park’s transformation continues, we’re looking forward to the opening of brand-new rides and restaurants — and even a new fireworks show! Now, Disney’s announced that a new SHOP is on the way, and it’s gonna be a big deal.

Today we’re sharing some of the ways in which your favorite Disney World restaurants have COMPLETELY CHANGED!
