food IS a theme park
Happy Halloween, everyone!
Spooky Season!!
Yes, it might only be mid-August, but Disney World is ready to celebrate Halloween. We’ve seen spooky decorations, merchandise, and fun food already, but now it’s time for the main event…Mickey’s Not-So-Scary Halloween Party! The party hasn’t happened since 2019, so follow along with us as we check out OPENING NIGHT of the returned after hours event! 🎃
It has been a BIG year for Disney World!
Cinderella Castle
Entertainment options have returned, restaurants have opened, and we’ve also gotten new rides and even resorts! But the excitement isn’t over yet. This fall is set to be a busy time in the parks, and there are quite a few new things you need to know if you’re traveling soon. Here’s everything you need to know about Disney World in August!
Disney World is constantly getting new snacks, drinks, and menu items!
The Drop Off
In the past few months alone, we’ve seen new snacks for Disney World’s 50th Anniversary, multiple menu overhauls at restaurants, and plenty of new treats “just because.” One place where you can often count on new additions is at The Drop Off Pool Bar at Disney’s Art of Animation Resort, and recently, we found a new drink there that we think our readers are going to be VERY interested in!
Okay, seriously, people — how is it already AUGUST?! We feel like we were just posting about EPCOT’s Festival of the Arts in January, and now we’re already into EPCOT’s Food and Wine Festival!
Guardians of the Galaxy: Cosmic Rewind opened this year, too!
SO much has happened in Disney World since the beginning of the year — character meet and greets returned to normal, certain entertainment came back, and more restaurants reopened, just to name a few. But now, we’re well into the second half of the year, and if you’re going to Disney World this month, we’re here to tell you all of the BEST things you can do!
Listen, getting dessert is NON-NEGOTIABLE when you’re visiting Disney World.
Gideon’s Bakehouse
There are plenty of places to grab a sweet treat, whether you’re in the parks, at a resort, or in Disney Springs. You can try everything from Dole Whip to doughnuts to yummy cakes. But one of the most popular spots to stop is at Gideon’s Bakehouse, and they just announced their monthly cookies for August!
We don’t know about you, but we are still REELING over all those announcements Disney made at San Diego Comic-Con! Wow! Was it a lot!

But a lot of those announcements were upcoming Disney+ series, some of which will premiere in August 2022! From the premieres of the new Marvel series She-Hulk to the new Star Wars series Andor to the Disney+ premiere of Lightyear, August is going to be on FIRE on Disney+.
