food IS a theme park
There are SO. MANY. new Disney restaurants coming soon. Hope you’ve got a clear schedule and a pair of stretchy pants. There’s a LOT of new food headed your way! Now, let’s go to Downtown Disney and talk FOOD.
Downtown Disney
There are THREE new restaurants opening at Downtown Disney. Disney recently shared some NEW concept art and revealed some exciting details about what you can expect here, and when we tell you we are EXCITED, well, you’ll see why.
There are certain Disney trends that Gen Z takes part in that Gen X does not see as life hacks.
Cinderella Castle
As a GenZ member of the team, I polled the Gen X members of our team to see what Disney Gen Z trends they think are the WORST. Here is the list of four trends that GenZ does at Disney that GenX thinks are a little weird. [Read more…]
Why can’t we have a Spider-Man ride in Disney World? When are you allowed to bring a HORSE into the parks? And what “liquid layer” rules does Disney want you to abide by? (Do we even WANT to know?)

We’re exposing the WEIRDEST rules across Disney World TODAY, here on DFB guide!
Disney’s largest fan event is heading to BRAZIL.
We can’t WAIT!
Since its launch in 2009, the event formerly known as the D23 Expo and currently as D23: The Ultimate Fan Event has become one of the most important on Disney’s calendar. The gathering has essentially become Disney’s own personal version of San Diego Comic Con with thousands of fans descending to attend panels on everything from new theme park announcements, upcoming feature films, and even celebrating the company’s iconic Disney Legends. While the main D23 event happens in Anaheim every other year, there are also Destination-D events at Walt Disney World, and there have been several in Japan. Now, D23 is expanding to another nation outside the U.S.
We’ve got a real treat coming soon to the Magic Kingdom. A new ride! That’s right — there’s a brand-new, never-before-seen ride coming to Disney World, and we can’t wait. It’s called Tiana’s Bayou Adventure, and it will open in both Disneyland park and Disney World’s Magic Kingdom in 2024! In fact, Tiana’s Bayou Adventure will open in Disney World in the summer of 2024, and “later in 2024” in Disneyland. Below, you can see the current construction progress. If that big hill looks familiar, that’s because this ride was formerly known as Splash Mountain!
Tiana’s Bayou Adventure
Back in 2020, Disney announced that Splash Mountain would close and get a complete makeover. The new attraction is inspired by The Princess and the Frog. But this won’t be the same old Princess and the Frog story we’ve seen before. Nope — Disney is creating a NEW story for the ride! But wait. We may have found a NEW clue that might give us some hints about the attraction.
If you are heading to Disney World today, be prepared for the potential for some severe weather!
Magic Kingdom is already looking dark and gloomy this morning.
Disney World will likely be hit by severe weather today, and we have all the details you need to know.
I used to work at one of DFB’s favorite restaurants!
Disney’s Polynesian Village Resort
That’s right! I used to work over at ‘Ohana at Disney’s Polynesian Village Resort! I still dream about taking home the delicious pineapple and coconut bread after a shift. This restaurant is super popular and oftentimes is a must-do during people’s vacations. Since ‘Ohana is so popular, some people will try to do whatever it takes to dine here, and I am here to debunk a go-to dining “advantage.”
A National Championship-Winning coach is upholding one of Disney World’s oldest traditions!
The parade!
The tradition of championship-winning players and coaches being celebrated at one of Disney’s U.S. theme parks dates back to 1987, when Super Bowl MVP Phil Simms declared, “I’m going to Disney World!” after his New York Giants defeated the Denver Broncos in Super Bowl XXI. Over the years, countless major sports figures have taken part in the tradition following victories, and now a 2024 NCAA National Championship coach is set to join them.
You must be well-prepared for your trip to Disney World.
Cinderella Castle
Being prepared means having tickets, getting the dining reservations you want, paying for travel, and more. But it also means having essentials with you like sunscreen, lotion, and other items that will make your trip more enjoyable. Luckily, since we go to Disney World every day we know just want to pack. And now, a bunch of those items are on sale at Target this week!
No matter what time of year it is, you can probably find some kind of construction or refurbishment project going on at Disney World. But is it just us, or does it seem like there are way more than usual right now?
Disney’s Port Orleans Resort — French Quarter
We’re finally nearing the end of the EPCOT transformation project, but there are still restaurants on the way at Disney’s BoardWalk Inn, and a new DVC villa coming to Disney’s Polynesian Village Resort. A lot of Disney World hotel rooms are also getting upgrades, including the rooms at Disney’s Port Orleans Resort — French Quarter.
