food IS a theme park
Are you ready for Halloween?!
Spooky season will be here sooner than you think!
Probably not, we’re guessing, since it’s only May. 😂 But, Disney gears up for the spooky holiday EARLY, so you can go ahead and make your plans right now (and we suggest you do!). Mickey’s Not-So-Scary Halloween Party is returning this year for the first time since 2019, and tickets are on sale RIGHT NOW! But wait — select guests can actually get a discount on tickets for the event, so let’s see if you qualify!
Even though it’s only May, we are ready for Halloween!

Back in April, Disney celebrated Halfway to Halloween by releasing special treats, dropping a sneak peek of Halloween merch, and announcing that Mickey’s Not-So-Scary Halloween Party would be returning to Disney World this year for the first time since 2019 — Eeek! And now, tickets for the event are on sale for all Disney World guests!
🎶 It’s gonna be May! 🎶 Or, well, I guess it already is…and Disney World is the place to BE this month!

There’s a LOT happening these days with big construction projects, new food, and big announcements, but that just means that your Disney World trip will be oh-so-exciting! So if you’re visiting soon, we’re breaking down the top five things you need to know about Disney World in May.Â
We’re officially 6 months away from Halloween and Disney World is celebrating with their annual Halfway to Halloween events!
SO much spooky fun!
All of the new treats have come and gone quickly (though some are sticking around!) and we got some MAJOR announcements on what we can expect once Halloween season officially rolls into the parks (usually around August). And, today we spotted a popular collectible that fans went nuts for in 2021 BACK in Magic Kingdom!
If there’s one thing you can count on in Disney World, it’s to expect the unexpected.

Among the unexpected news this week we saw several popular rides temporarily close, a surprise celebrity role in a new EPCOT ride, and a HUGE Halloween announcement! Are you ready to jump right into it?
Like the waves at Typhoon Lagoon, crowds at Disney World tend to ebb and flow throughout the year. Some days, weeks, and seasons are just MUCH busier than others! Some of those busy times are very predictable — like Spring Break or the holiday season — but you’ve also got to take unofficial Disney World holidays into account, like runDisney weekends or Dapper Days.
This area is busy ALL the time!
Naturally, the busiest days of the year result in the LONGEST wait times in the parks! But is it even possible to predict when Disney World will be most crowded anymore? And what do the wait times actually look like when the parks are super busy? Let’s dive in and find out!
Disney World is currently in the middle of their Halfway to Halloween celebration and while it may seem small, it’s an event that you DON’T want to miss!

Not only did we get BIG announcements about what we can expect for the Halloween season in 2022 (like the return of Mickey’s Not-So-Scary Halloween Party in Disney World and Oogie Boogie Bash in Disneyland), but there are also a ton of limited-time treats popping up to celebrate. And, over in Disney Springs, Gideon’s Bakehouse isn’t the only spot getting in on the spooky season — but, you’ll have to head there ASAP!
Pickles and Corn Dogs — our favorite Halloween snacks.
We can’t wait for Halloween at Disneyland
Just kidding…kinda. We here at DFB love Halloween and sometimes wish we could celebrate it all year long. Lucky for us, Disney is celebrating Halfway to Halloween with some spooky eats and treats! So, let’s see how pickles and corn dogs will combine to bring some scary flavor to Disneyland!
WOW. That’s all we have to say. “WOW.” 😱

Okay, obviously we have more to say than just “wow” or there would be no article! But this week was seriously a BIG one when it comes to Disney news. From huge Halloween announcements to some hotel news you’re not going to want to miss out on — we’ve got it all wrapped up in one, nice little package for you right here! What are you waiting for?! Let’s get on with our summary of the biggest Disney news from this week!
