food IS a theme park
It’s Halloween Time at the Disneyland Resort which means new merch, experiences, and treats!
Halloween Time at Disneyland
We’ve been reviewing all the Halloween treats available at Disneyland this year and so far it’s been a solid showing at the resort! For our latest review, we headed over to Disneyland Park’s Main Street U.S.A. to try some spooky snacks and we have plenty of thoughts!
We have gotten a look at a lot of new concept art lately.
Pueblo Esperanza Model
There are so many new additions coming to Disney World over the next few years, including eight new rides! Recent concept art and even models include a look into these new projects, like the Tropical Americas-themed land coming to Animal Kingdom, Pueblo Esperanza. We also have a few concept art photos for the latest Disney Villains land and Cars-themed land coming to Magic Kingdom. This is super exciting, but we have started to learn to take concept art with a grain of salt because, sometimes, concept art does not mimic the final product. We are looking at you, CommuniCore Hall!

It’s not uncommon for Disney rides to be closed during your vacation.
Pirates of the Caribbean Disneyland
Disneyland Resort and Disney World are home to dozens of rides each, and many of those rides are a few decades old. For safety, attractions must get regularly scheduled refurbishments to keep them up to date. Thankfully, you can check the calendars online to see which rides will be closed during your trip!
There may be times on your Disney World vacation that you just don’t feel like going out to eat and would rather have a nice meal together in your hotel room.

Sometimes, you may be so tired from your day at the parks that ordering an in-room pizza is just what you need. Perhaps you’re having a mid-afternoon break in your hotel room, and ordering your meal lets your little ones nap longer. Whatever the reason, being able to order room service right from an app on your phone is a great option that is only available at three Disney World hotels.
As you plan for your upcoming Disney World vacation, you likely have lots of reservations to make, hotels to book, and airline tickets to buy.
Magic Kingdom
Planning a trip to Disney World can be a chore, and finding the best value for your trip can be a monumental task, especially for plane tickets. Knowing when to purchase your airline tickets to get a great deal can be tricky. But occasionally airlines will run some awesome limited-time deals that you need to be quick to take advantage of!
Disney is getting dragged into politics again.
Magic Kingdom
For much of 2022 and 2023, Disney found itself locked in a political battle with Florida governor and Republican presidential candidate Ron DeSantis. Issues initially spurred from Disney’s objection to the controversial DeSantis-backed Parental Rights in Education Act legislation in Florida, before exploding into a larger “culture war” issue regarding Disney’s “special district” status in Florida. The issue seems to be resolved through a settlement and a new Disney deal with Florida earlier this year. However, the company has now been dragged back into the political spotlight thanks to the upcoming 2024 United States Presidential Election.
Some pretty significant changes are coming to EPCOT.
EPCOT
EPCOT is fresh off its transformation that resulted in CommuniCore Hall and CommuniCore Plaza, but it appears that the Disney World park isn’t done. Disney announced some big changes coming to EPCOT’s The Seas with Nemo & Friends Pavilion and, unfortunately, the news might be disappointing to some.
