food IS a theme park
We’ve had another BIG week of Disney news!
TRON Sign
Not only did the 100th anniversary celebration kick off in Disneyland, but we got some major announcements for TRON Lightcycle / Run which is set to open on April 4th, 2023. You may think this time between the holidays and spring break/TRON’s opening is slow, but the wait times are telling us otherwise.
We’ve officially entered a slower season in Disney World, but it doesn’t always feel like it!
TRON Construction
Although this time of year is typically not as busy as the holidays or spring break time, there are plenty of things happening in the parks to draw people in. The Festival of the Arts is happening over in EPCOT right now, a popular Princess meet and greet is reopening, TRON Lightcycle / Run is getting closer to its opening (which means previews are coming soon), and so much more. So how is all of this impacting the wait times?
It’s been a pretty wild week for Disney news!
Magic Kingdom
We found out when Happily Ever After and EPCOT Forever would return to Disney World, free parking is now available for hotel guests, Genie+ is getting a new perk, Park Pass Reservations are changing for Annual Passholders, and more. Also, the Festival of the Arts officially kicked off in EPCOT! Even though Disney news has been busy, the parks seemed to have mellowed out when it comes to wait times.
If you’re headed to Disney World soon, don’t say we didn’t warn you.
Crowds
The crowds have been wild this holiday season in Disney World and we’ve seen some pretty long wait times. On top of that the wait times will soon be affected by several upcoming ride closures and refurbishments. But what can you expect from the wait times in Disney World right now? That’s what we’re here to investigate!
Happy holidays, DFB readers!
Crowds
We’ve been in the parks this week bringing you updates on crowds from the parks and Disney Springs, and no surprise here — it’s REAL busy! On top of that, freezing temperatures are coming to Orlando for the holiday weekend so bundle up if you’re headed to the parks. But what are the wait times like during one of the busiest times of year? Let’s find out!
Can you believe we’re over halfway through December?!
Christmas in Magic Kingdom
It seems like just yesterday we were celebrating Halloween and watching holiday decorations go up in the parks. Now, we’ve already celebrated with huge gingerbread displays, tons of holiday treats, and Mickey’s Very Merry Christmas Party. With the holidays comes big crowds — so what do the wait times look like during the week before Christmas?
The holidays are in full swing at Disney World and now we’re back with another look at the wait times!
It’s the holiday season in Disney World!

Now that we’re heading into December, you might be wondering what Disney World crowds look like right after Thanksgiving. But wonder no more!
It can get crowded in Disney World during the holidays!
The week of Thanksgiving brought lots of crowds and high wait times, but the week after the holiday looks a little bit different.

Thanksgiving has come and gone, and along with most holidays in Disney World, one thing remains true — it gets CROWDED.
