food IS a theme park
The EPCOT entrance area has already gotten some seriously MASSIVE upgrades.
Jaw. Dropping. Beauty.
First, there’s the new entrance fountain, which lights up beautifully. Then, we’ve got the new flags and the new entrance music. And not too long ago we got to see those incredible new lights all around the entrance area that make this spot truly SPECTACULAR at night. But, this whole area will soon be getting ANOTHER new addition!
We’re back at Disney World’s OG park!
Disney World
We’ve spent the past few days making a number of visits to Magic Kingdom and we’ve certainly had a blast. Now, we’re checking in with some of the latest updates in food, construction, and merchandise!
If we could time travel, we’d probably just move forward a few months so we can see all the 50th anniversary festivities in Disney World. (Oh, and to eat a bunch of crepes and ride Remy’s Ratatouille Adventure, of course!)
Cinderella Castle
Disney World will be decorating its park icons to match with the “EARidescent” color scheme that will glimmer across the property. Cinderella Castle has already started its big transformation with a nod to Mary Blair’s designs. Imagineers have been hard at work to craft the ribbons and bows that are already appearing on Cinderella Castle in the Magic Kingdom right now!
We’re getting excited for Disney World’s 50th anniversary!

The celebration will begin October 1st, 2021 (that’s Disney World’s 50th birthday!), and will be a whopping 18 months long. Mickey and Minnie are gonna rock brand-new costumes, and each of the 4 park icons will receive a mini-transformation. And believe it or not, we’ve already seen some progress on the Cinderella Castle makeover in Magic Kingdom! Plus, we’ve gotten a behind-the-scenes peek at what the final result will look like.
Preparations are well underway for Disney World’s 50th Anniversary celebrations, which start this year on October 1st.

We’ve already seen 50th anniversary decor added to Cinderella Castle, and we’ve gotten a peek at how the other park icons will look in celebration of the 50th. Well, if you’re planning to visit Disney World for the start of the 50th Anniversary celebrations, one thing you’ll want to book QUICKLY are your Park Pass reservations, as more Park Passes around that time have started to fill up!
Lots of excitement is in store for Disney World in 2021.

It’s no secret that Disney trips require some serious planning.

Between finding a hotel, buying tickets, and figuring out dining, there’s a LOT that goes into a Disney vacation! But with adjusted operations due to the ongoing pandemic, there are a couple parts of your trip that need even MORE planning than usual. So if you’re planning on checking these 2 things off your Disney bucket list, you’d better get preppin’!
It’s not too difficult to find construction in Disney World.
Disney’s Polynesian Village Resort
Whether teams are building something new, changing something old, or just keeping things in working order; construction is a pretty common occurrence in The Most Magical Place on Earth. We’ve heard a lot of news about resort hotel construction recently and we’re wondering: What’s next for Disney World Resort hotels?
