food IS a theme park
There’s a LOT going on in Disney World!
Don’t let them know you’re with the Resistance!
We love exploring the Most Magical Place on Earth to bring you all the updates! We’ve spent a few days in Disney’s Hollywood Studios and now we’re bringing you everything new in construction and merchandise!
This week, we’ve been eating our way around Disney World, and we’ve certainly had our share of bunny-shaped snacks, treats with Peeps on them, and other Easter goodies! SO much sugar.
Easter Treat!
But we’re still keeping an eye on what’s happening at Disney World restaurants, and there were a TON of updates this week. Menus are CONSTANTLY changing throughout the resort, and sometimes things disappear from those menus, while new things get added. So here are all the updates from this past week!
Disney World park passes have been hard to come by lately. Not only have we seen the parks sold out on quite a few days the past month, but we’re also starting to see park passes fill up for October when the big 50th-anniversary celebration begins!
Fourth of July Peanut Butter Pie
But it looks like guests are making plans to head to Disney World this summer, too — and if you have plans to visit the parks for the 4th of July, you better start booking your passes now!
Sometimes when we’re wandering around Disney World, we spot some fun things going on.
Tower of Terror
And we’re not really talking about seeing Donald Duck watering plants, or Mickey in a cavalcade, or even a princess peeking out to say hello. A LOT of stuff gets filmed at Disney World for everything from TV shows to commercials, and if we’re lucky enough, we get a peek behind the scenes of that filming.
Planning to visit Disney World this summer AND you want to visit Disney’s Hollywood Studios to ride Star Wars: Rise of the Resistance, The Twilight Zone Tower of Terror, Slinky Dog Dash, and more??

If you’re a BIG Muppets fan, then you probably love the Muppet*Vision 3D area in Disney’s Hollywood Studios and at least the decor (but not necessarily the pizza) over at PizzeRizzo.
Even the Disney Ducks LOVE the Muppets!
But, big Muppets fans and those who just haven’t opened their eyes yet to the awesomeness of the Muppets may have totally overlooked some amazing details in this area that just further prove how hilarious our Muppet friends are. If you love puns and sarcasm, we DARE you to read this and not laugh or at least chuckle!
We’ve been taking you ALL OVER Walt Disney World recently, to search out some of those famous Disney details!
Can you see MICKEY?!
Now, some of these little gems — like Hidden Mickeys or even Hidden Remys — are simply subtle secrets for keen eyes to discover. But today, we’re doing a little bit of the reverse of seeing if you can spot a hidden detail amidst a larger setting. Instead, we’re showing you a Disney detail and YOUR job is to see if you can guess “Where in the WORLD” it is! [Read more…]
Bright Suns, DFB friends!
Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge
Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge in Disney’s Hollywood Studios boasts some pretty unique (and tasty) eats and drinks. Besides the fact that you can eat your meal with the COOLEST utensil on the planet (of Batuu, of course), you can also find an assortment of eats like Blue Milk and the popular Ronto Wrap. And, when Disney shared that they would be adding TWO new versions of the Ronto Wrap to the menu, we knew we had to head over to give it a try!
Navigating your way around Disney World these days can be a bit more complicated than you might expect! Due to social distancing requirements, Disney might have some doors to its stores blocked and some marked specifically as entrances or exits in a way that you aren’t used to.
Ready to Visit Disney’s Hollywood Studios?
You might also find the lines for some rides to be stretched out pretty far away from the actual entrances. Finding the end of a line or knowing where to look can be really tough and frustrating! So, we made the maps that Disney won’t! Here at DFB we’ve been working on a series of maps to help you navigate the parks right now and make your next trip SO much easier! We’ve already developed these maps for EPCOT and Magic Kingdom, and today we’re sharing our map of Disney’s Hollywood Studios with you!
Disney World is getting VERY spiffed up for its big 50th birthday party!
The Chinese Theater just got a glow up!
We’ve seen Cinderella Castle get a new paint job and extra bling. And don’t even get us started about what’s going on with its stage and moat. Even EPCOT is getting a massive overhaul and is already starting to look pretty spectacular!
Our handy (and portable!) ebook guides make sure you get the best deals and can plan a vacation of a lifetime.
