So far, this weekend has been filled with exciting details and interesting bits of Disney history. We’ve been anxiously awaiting an update on several major Disney projects, so we were SUPER excited to hear that Disney has news to share. This time, we’re back to report all the updates confirmed for Disney California Adventure — Avengers Campus is getting a NEW attraction!
The day we’ve been waiting for is finally here. Destination D23 is HAPPENING!
Welcome t0 2023 Destination D23!
Will Disney share any major breaking news? Could we walk away with a tote bag full of new Disney merchandise? Will we have access to some vintage Disney props? Let’s find out!
It’s never too early to start planning a Disney World vacation. In fact, we’ve even warned our readers to AVOID visiting the Disney parks all the way in 2028. But let’s not get too far ahead of ourselves. Instead, let’s look at 2024. There are some BIG things happening in Disney World next year (like the return of the famous Disney Dining Plan, the removal of the park pass reservation rule, and much more). But now that revenge travel seems to be over, are tons of people still going to Disney World?
Disney’s Grand Floridian
We asked our readers on Facebook if they had any trips planned for Disney World in 2024. Did we get a resounding “NO.“? Were our comments flooded with the word “YES!“? Let’s find out!
We have some EXCITING news to share, and we simply cannot wait to let it go!
Anna and Elsa!
We’ve been sharing updates on the NEW World of Frozen coming to Hong Kong Disneyland Resort for several months. Disney has given us previews of the new attractions and glimpses at the land, but now we’ve got an EXCITING update.
Allow us to set the scene: It’s summer, Magic Kingdom is packed with people, the sun is beating down on you, and the most protein you’ve had all day was a little beef in your Cheeseburger Spring Roll. It’s time for a break.
Disney’s Riviera Resort
So, when you need food, where do you go? After an intense day in Magic Kingdom, you deserve a long, luxurious meal in the air conditioning. How about Topolino’s Terrace at Disney’s Riviera Resort? It’s a popular sit-down table-service restaurant with good food and a relaxing atmosphere. But after we’ve been to so many winning restaurants lately, is this spot still worth a visit? Come with us to find out as we review Topolino’s Terrace in Disney World!
There’s pretty much always something you end up forgetting to pack on your Disney vacation. Maybe you left the sunscreen at home or forgot your favorite sunglasses. Packing isn’t easy, after all!

Well, there’s one thing we just KNOW you will regret leaving behind on your next trip to Disney World. Let’s take a look!
Earlier this year, Disney made an announcement that shocked both Star Wars and Disney fans alike. After opening in early 2022, in May 2023, it was revealed that the Star Wars hotel would permanently close. Despite its short run in Disney World, the hotel managed to attract a lot of attention when it first opened. Fans described it as an entirely new “experience” where guests were fully transported to another galaxy (there weren’t even any real windows inside the hotel) to live out a Star Wars adventure.

That’s not to say the hotel wasn’t met with criticism. From the start, many Disney fans were disappointed in both the concept and the price (voyages start at around $1,200 per guest per night for two guests in a cabin). After the first few voyage dates sold out, the hotel eventually began to face some vacancy issues. Now that the dust has settled and Disney has commented on its decision to close the hotel, was it all worth it? Â
The most POPULAR Disney Halloween party is HERE — Oogie Boogie Bash is BACK for 2023! Now, everyone stop clowning around, and let’s get down to business. What kind of entertainment can you expect at this year’s event?Â
LOVE the Costume
If you’re unfamiliar, Oogie Boogie Bash is a separately ticketed Halloween event that takes place after Disney California Adventure closes to day guests. The event runs on select nights in September and October in Disney California Adventure at Disneyland Resort.
September has arrived! Now, if only we could get some crisp, cool fall weather in Central Florida. Although it may not always feel like fall in Disney World, that doesn’t stop us from celebrating Halloween!
Main Street, U.S.A. decorated for Halloween!
Admittedly, one of our favorite parts of the Halloween season is trying the festive treats at Disney World! This year, there are TONS of Halloween snacks available. From returning classics to new desserts, we’re here for the FOOD. This time, we’re traveling to Disney’s Old Key West Resort to try a NEW treat!
Every once in a while, it’s nice to refresh your wardrobe, right? Who doesn’t love a spooky Halloween shirt for fall or a cozy red sweater in the winter? And if you’re visiting one of the Disney parks, it’s especially fun to pick out some special Disney-inspired outfits for your trip!
Disneyland Resort
Well, even the Disney characters like to dress up for special occasions. Recently, Disney gave us a look at the NEW outfits Mickey and friends are wearing this year in Disneyland Resort, and it’s safe to say that they all look AMAZING!
Our handy (and portable!) ebook guides make sure you get the best deals and can plan a vacation of a lifetime.
