food IS a theme park
Disney World’s theme parks will officially begin to reopen to guests on July 11th.
Magic Kingdom
At this time, all hotel and ticket sales have been placed on hold as Disney rolls out their brand new reservation system. But now, we have a HUGE update for guests looking to book a 2021 trip. Disney World 2021 bookings are scheduled to begin on June 28th.
We’ve shared a few Disney-inspired crafts in the past, and we’ve even been inspired to paint ROCKS to look like our favorite Star Wars characters. But today we’re gonna see what we can come up with on a serious BUDGET!

As many of you may know, Disney is implementing a BRAND NEW reservation system for their grand reopening and up until this point, we had VERY few details on how the system would operate.
Cinderella Castle
Now, Disney World has just released ALL the details on when this new system will go live and what guests will need to do in order to get a reservation.
When Disney World announced their plan to begin reopening on July 11th, they also announced they were pausing all hotel and ticket sales for the time being.

We know many of you have been eager to find out when you’d be able to start booking trips again, and it appears we’re closer to a solid answer. [Read more…]
With Disney World set to reopen its Disney Vacation Club Resorts on June 22, along with Disney’s Fort Wilderness, we’re ready to head back to some of our favorite hotels on property and catch up on EVERYTHING we’ve missed since March!
Polynesian Village Resort Lobby
But not so fast! While we were perusing which restaurants will open on June 22, we noticed there were SEVERAL dining experiences missing from those lists that made our jaws hit the floor! Here are six restaurants that we are SHOCKED to find will not be a part of their resorts’ initial reopenings.
Walt Disney World Resort will begin reopening to guests at select Resort hotels on June 22nd followed by the theme parks beginning on July 11th.
Cinderella Castle
While we have known for some time that — upon initial reopening — experiences around the Resort will see modifications (and, in some cases, will be unavailable), we are getting a full picture of what that means for specific offerings and special events. For instance, it was just announced that Mickey’s Not-So-Scary Halloween Party has been canceled for this fall. (The Epcot Food and Wine Festival, however, will return SOON!). [Read more…]

Hollywood Studios
Recently it dawned on us while we’ve been dishing out Disney World advice to our family and friends that some of the theme parks’ biggest challenges might no longer be applicable when the parks reopen!
We Feel Ya, Mickey Mouse
Yes, we’re bummed that certain guest experiences are being modified or will be temporarily unavailable for a large portion of 2020, but try to look on the bright side — with less stuff happening, we might be in for a MUCH easier time at the parks when Disney World officially reopens July 11th and July 15th!
ICYMI, yesterday delivered a LOT of news about special events at Walt Disney World Resort.
Mickey’s Not-So-Scary Halloween Party
With decisions made to promote safety in light of the current global health situation, it was announced, for instance, that Mickey’s Not-So-Scary Halloween Party has been canceled for the fall. The Epcot International Food & Wine Festival, however, will return — and SOON! (You can read all about it here.) [Read more…]
There’s a LOT we know about Walt Disney World’s plans to reopen in the coming weeks, but there’s a lot we DON’T know yet.
Entering Walt Disney World Resort
We know that certain Disney World hotels are opening on June 22nd, the Magic Kingdom and Animal Kingdom are reopening on July 11th, and Epcot and Disney’s Hollywood Studios are reopening on July 15th.
Disney World just made some MAJOR announcements about some of their 2020 events.
We just learned that a modified version of the Epcot Food and Wine Festival will begin when the park reopens on July 15th (without the Eat to the Beat Concert series). And, in LESS fortunate news, Disney announced that Mickey’s Not-So-Scary Halloween Party for 2020 has been canceled and H2O Glow Nights have also been canceled.
