food IS a theme park
UPDATED: November 22, 2024
Are you gearing up for a 2024 Disney World trip? Watch out for some huge CHANGES affecting the parks and hotels this year!
Magic Kingdom
The Disney Dining Plan is back, Park Hopping has changed, and that’s just the tip of the iceberg. Let’s dig into all the BIG CHANGES taking place at Disney World in 2024. [Read more…]
Trips to Disney are EXPENSIVE! There’s no doubt about it.
Magic Kingdom
Add up all the costs for airfare, hotel rooms, and park tickets and we’d be surprised if you even had any money left over for food and souvenirs or add-ons like Genie+ or PhotoPass. Thinking about all that, we thought we’d bring you our list of the BEST free things in Disney World right now. (Bet you didn’t know there were any free things to do at Disney World!)
Disney World is constantly evolving.
Cinderella Castle in Magic Kingdom
This year was big for the theme park! We got a new thrill ride, a Moana-themed attraction, tons of EPCOT transformation updates, and more. But, 2024 is around the corner and even MORE things are coming. Let’s take a look at what Disney has promised for the upcoming year.
It’s no secret that things are about to change a lot in Disney World in 2024.
EPCOT
We know that certain attractions are getting makeovers this coming year, and we have to admit that we’re nervous about some of them. However, there are tons of new additions we CANNOT WAIT to see, and we thought we’d do a quick recap to refresh your mind!
The Disney World gingerbread displays have been getting built over the last several weeks!

Disney’s Grand Floridian, Beach Club, Yacht Club, Contemporary, and BoardWalk Inn have all had their gingerbread sculptures completed and open for business! You know we have to try the snacks all over Disney World so of course when we stopped by to visit the gingerbread BoardWalk Deli, we grabbed a couple of sweet treats.
If you’re a Disney fan who just can’t seem to resist some good ol’ classic theme park food, you’re in luck.
Disney’s BoardWalk
We found out over the summer that Blue Ribbon Corn Dogs would soon make its way to Disney World, after being a hit for YEARS over at Downtown Disney in Disneyland. The spot specializes in hand-dipped, specialty, and gourmet corn dogs, and in Disneyland, we’ve had ones like the Christmas Corn Dog, The Mexican Street Corn Dog, and even the Golden Dragon Corn Dog!. Disney World’s own corn dog stand will be located over by Disney’s Boardwalk Inn, and we were previously told that we could expect the opening to happen in November. Well, November is here, and now we’re checking for updates!
Well, you can say that in 2023 a LOT has been going on with The Walt Disney Company and not all of it has been good.
Cinderella Castle
We’ve seen incredibly long lines, shut-down rides, and unpredictable weather, and those are just some of the things at Disney World, not to mention the larger company. For instance, Disney has had some pretty major project flops this year when thinking about their movies and series. So, let’s go over what’s not been going right for Disney this year.
Planning for your 2024 Disney World trip is no small feat!
Heading to Disney World in 2024?
Listen, we get it. When you’ve got so many things to consider like your dining reservations or navigating Genie+, it can start to feel overwhelming really quickly. That’s what we’re here for. The last thing we want is for you to arrive and be disappointed with your plans. So, let’s talk about your hotel and some of the reasons you might regret staying in certain Disney hotels in 2024.
Dining in Disney is one of our favorite things (obviously, that’s our whole job)!
Skipper Canteen
There are tons of wonderful restaurants to experience around Disney World, Disneyland, and beyond. If you love Disney food as much as we do, then you’re probably just as excited as we are about the new restaurants Disney has announced. Let’s do a quick recap and run through them all!
Disney’s BoardWalk has seen some changes recently, with even more to come.

When we heard The Cake Bake Shop was coming to Disney World, we were beyond excited! Sweet and savory menus, afternoon tea service, a whimsical atmosphere…who wouldn’t be excited?! So, in preparation for the opening of this new restaurant, we interviewed the owner, Gwendolyn Rogers, and took a look at what the menu and pricing could be. The restaurant was supposed to open in 2023, but now we just got word that is not happening.
