food IS a theme park
Well, we’re halfway through 2024, and a LOT has happened in Disney World already this year.
Disney’s Beach Club Resort
A lot is still set to happen at Disney World hotels, though. Disney’s BoardWalk Inn is getting a Blue Ribbon Corn Dogs plus The Cake Bake Shop by Gwendolyn Rogers. Brand new Disney Vacation Club (DVC) villas will be opening later in 2024 at Disney’s Polynesian Village Resort. With all of this, and more, going on, we expect to see some hotel trends popping up in 2025.
Inside Out 2 has officially debuted in theaters! We have been anticipating the opening for months with lots of themed offerings in the parks including themed treats, character meet and greets, a sneak peek at the Walt Disney Presents theater, an addition to a nighttime show, and more.
‘Inside Out 2’ is in theaters!
Now, you can finally see the movie in theaters. We are feeling all the emotions, as Inside Out 2 had a very successful opening weekend at the box office.
Just when we thought we’d rid ourselves of those pesky Disney World construction walls, we were wrong.
Cinderella Castle
EPCOT just underwent a major transformation, ending with the grand opening of CommuniCore Hall and CommuniCore Plaza. The project took years and left EPCOT looking more like WALLCOT. But, it looks like we, unfortunately, haven’t seen the last of the mess at EPCOT with the now-closed Test Track. And, even Magic Kingdom is joining the party because new construction walls are up!
A popular store at Disney Springs is now temporarily CLOSED.
Disney Springs
Disney Springs is the shopping and dining district in Disney World, with almost 100 stores and gift shops, more than 60 restaurants and snack stands, and over 20 entertainment offerings. Right now, however, one of those gift shops is unavailable, and there’s no word yet on when it might open back up.
Here at Disney Food Blog, we consider ourselves to be what you might call aficionados of popcorn and popcorn accessories.

We’ve seen drink sippers, we’ve seen popcorn buckets, heck, we’ve even seen popcorn buckets that can move, but we’ve certainly never seen anything like THIS at any of the Disney parks!
Disney World is quite a confusing place, and you may have a lot of questions — we get it!
Cinderella Castle
How should you plan your trip? How many days should you dedicate to being in the parks? What are the best hotels to stay at? Those are just a few of the questions you may be asking before your vacation, and we’ve got plenty of resources to help you out. However, it’s come to our attention that there are some questions about the parks that are totally going viral right now, so let’s help clear up those answers!
There are tons of different dining options in EPCOT, which means it can sometimes feel overwhelming to decide where to eat.
Connections Eatery
Now, there are two NEW items at a popular fast food spot that you’ll want to consider. Come with us to try a couple of new eats at Connections Eatery in World Celebration!
Is it too early to get hyped for the holidays in the Disney parks?
Christmas at Disneyland!
I mean, we know it’s June, but we’re already starting to think about our winter vacations and what could be better than ringing in the season in Disney World or Disneyland Resort? We’ve recently seen some hints about holiday celebrations coming to Disney World, but now we’ve got a tip about what could be returning to the West Coast!
There are a lot of items that we recommend taking with you on your trip to Disney World.
Magic Kingdom
Portable batteries, water bottles, ponchos, sunscreen, and many other items are important to take with you into the parks. They will keep you going all day while you’re enjoying the Most Magical Place on Earth. There are several park bags that are great depending on what you plan to take as well. We are fans of Loungeflys, belt bags, and LUG bags. But regardless of which bag you plan to take, we will always take this one item with us no matter what.
There is a new arrival at Disney World! It may not seem like a big deal compared to the opening of CommuniCore Hall and Plaza or the closure of Test Track, but we are HUGE fans of this new arrival.Â
Bus Depot
The Disney World Transportation system is extensive and efficient. You can get almost anywhere on Disney World property utilizing a combination of buses, monorails, gondolas, boats, and trams. Disney World has been debuting new buses over the past few months, and we were excited to spot another new bus wrap!
