food IS a theme park
Disney recently made a big investment, but is it worth the cost?
Disneyland Entrance
Things are constantly changing in the Disney parks. From new attractions to updated policies and procedures, we keep an eye on all the latest updates from around the parks so we can keep you in the know for your next visit. One recent change we noticed came with a big price tag for Disney — but was it worth it?
Waits increased pretty much across the board at Walt Disney World this week.
Seven Dwarfs Mine Train
The major attractions at the magic Kingdom and EPCOT both saw quantifiable increases in average wait times over the first full week of May. Not to be outdone, Animal Kingdom’s Flight of Passage – the ride with the highest average wait time in the whole resort – leapt up close to 100 minutes.
Pixar Fest is happening NOW through August 4th at Disneyland and Disney California Adventure, and the all-new food booths are finally OPEN!
Pixar Fest!
This is the FIRST time Disneyland is bringing exclusive food booths to Pixar Fest and each booth is themed after popular Pixar films! And now that we’ve eaten all the new menu items and checked out the new drinks, it’s time to talk about what YOU should eat and drink on your visit!
We finally have a countdown to Mickey’s Not-So-Scary Halloween Party!
Mickey’s Not-So-Scary Halloween Party
This year, you’ll be able to experience this exclusive after-hours event on select nights starting on August 9th all the way through October 31st. Tickets cost between $119-$199 depending on which night you’re going, and while any day is usually a great day to experience some Disney magic, there are some days we highly recommend NOT going to this special experience.
Let’s face it, Disney World is practically dripping with romance!
Cinderella Caste
Cinderella’s Castle, fireworks lighting up the night sky, sharing a Dole Whip (Don’t judge! It’s true love!). The magic is so palpable that it’s practically begging you to pop the question. But hold your Mickey ears, lovebirds, because not every spot is a fairytale dream come true. Let’s go over a list of the absolute worst (or maybe the absolute funniest?) places to pop the question!
Disneyland and Disney California Adventure are celebrating all things Pixar now through August 4th at Pixar Fest! You can enjoy special parades, fireworks, characters, and all-new food booths! The booths are all inspired by Pixar films and you don’t want to miss them!
The Spark Booth
The Spark inspired by Soul is one of the six brand new booths at this year’s Pixar Fest, and if you’re a fan of soul food and beer, this is the booth for you! Let’s go check it out!
UH-OH! It’s happening again. Things that were hardly a blip on your radar a few minutes ago are suddenly beyond irritating. That’s when it dawns on you: “Hmm… it’s been a while since I’ve eaten anything…” Yep! You’re HANGRY. And that means you need some Hanger Management!
Hanger Management Booth
Fortunately, fans at Disneyland Resort’s Pixar Fest have exactly that at the ready thanks to the Hanger Management Food Booth! It’s one of six brand-new food booths at Disney California Adventure that have hit the scene for this Pixar-themed summer celebration. These new booths join a whole lot of Pixar-inspired fun happening around the Resort including special character meet-and-greets, dance parties, the Better Together Pixar Pals Celebration Parade, and more!
Are you counting down the days until Mickey’s Not-So-Scary Halloween Party?
It’s really not so scary!
We don’t blame you if you’re stoked (we’re excited, too!!). There are just so many reasons to be hyped up for the party like all the treats, rides, and entertainment. But, have you thought about what you’re going to do the day after the party? Well, let’s talk about how the day after the party, we’ll be hitting up one park in particular. Let’s go!
We know that Disney closes rides for refurbishment for good reasons.
Disney’s Hollywood Studios
Safety is paramount on theme park rides, so regular refurbishments to double-check everything is working properly are very important, plus, a little love and updating go a long way. But sometimes, we have to wonder just what they are doing that takes them SO long and why the ride is closed for many months. One Disney World ride has been closed for five months now, and we’re starting to wonder if there’s an end in sight.
Pixar Fest is ON now through August 4th at Disneyland and Disney California Adventure, and this year they’re celebrating with NEW food booths!
Portorosso Food Booth
Pixar Fest includes lots of entertainment in both parks, including fireworks, a parade, and even dance parties. But we are so excited for the food this year! Now, it’s time for some pasta and Italian eats at the Portorosso Pasta booth at Disney’s Pixar Fest. This booth is inspired by the film Luca— let’s check it out!
