After all, who doesn’t want to galavant through empty Disney parks in a fun costume while also meeting tons of RARE Disney characters? And THEN you get to wear an adorable medal around the parks! It’s super fun, and I’m happy that the events are starting to get the attention they deserve. However, there IS a downside to this increase in popularity.
There are a lot of changes coming to Disney World this year! We will be able to experience Tiana’s Bayou Adventure and jam out to a new Country Bear Musical Jamboree in Magic Kingdom. As well, the CommuniCore Hall and Plaza is opening up in EPCOT.
We are happy to see these trends go away!
Amidst all these upcoming openings, we are also seeing a few trends making their way out the door.

Magic Kingdom

Most things have returned to normal in the Disney World parks after the pandemic closures in 2020.
Planet Hollywood Entrance with social distancing markers
However, when the parks first reopened, a LOT of things were done quite differently — social distancing was required everywhere, many rides had plexiglass barriers in between rows, and masks were required. And those were just a few of the changes we saw in attempt to ensure a safer experience. All of those are gone now, but one change does remain. Honestly though, we hope it NEVER goes away!
You’ve probably heard of Michelin-rated restaurants, some of which you’ll find around Disney World, but did you know this distinction is expanding?
