food IS a theme park
We’ve been anxiously awaiting the grand opening of Space 220 in EPCOT for years…literally!
Space 220
Set next to the Mission: SPACE attraction in EPCOT, Space 220 is a restaurant unlike any other in Disney World. To enter the restaurant, guests will board an elevator that will simulate transporting them 220 miles above Earth to the Centauri Space Station. Once inside, guests will be treated to a full panoramic view of space as they dine! Sounds great, right? If it ever opens, that is!

It’s no secret that some times of the year are better to visit Disney World than others!
Let’s plan that perfectly-timed Disney World vacation!
If you’re like us (or probably most people!), you want that low-crowd, mild weather, easygoing day in the Disney World parks. Unfortunately, that’s not always the case. Today, we’re sharing 10 times that you may NOT want to visit Disney World — the decision on when to take your trip is ultimately up to you, but if you avoid these times of the year, then your trip might be a smidge less stressful!
We’re getting excited for Disney World’s 50th anniversary!
