food IS a theme park
We’re closing out 2023 in the best way we know how…by spending it at Disney World!
Cinderella Castle
If you’re celebrating the new year at The Most Magical Place on Earth, you’ll find special treats, some new merchandise collections, and of course, CROWDS. Lots of people want to ring in 2024 at the parks, and we’re here to show you just how busy things are!
The holiday season is wrapping up in Disney World, and you know what that means.
The holidays in Disney’s Animal Kingdom
It means we’re already looking forward to 2024. We’ve already seen 2024 merchandise in the parks and online, and we are ready for what 2024 will bring, including LOADS of changes. But now is also the time for special New Year’s 2024 snacks — we tried our first recently, but we just discovered MORE 2024 snacks. Come with us to try them out!
We’ve been telling you about how busy things are in Orlando right now.
The crowds are here!
Even Orlando International Airport has warned travelers about projected holiday travel crowds visiting the airport. Disney World is super busy, too, as we’ve seen with crowd levels AND the price of Genie+ (which has hit its highest ever). Well, it turns out that Orlando is also near the top of an important list for winter travel.
The holiday season is not only in full swing, but the ACTUAL holidays are finally upon us!
The holidays have arrived!
That means that things are getting pretty busy in Disney World. The crowds are arriving and Genie+ has already reached its highest price yet. But that’s not all. If you were planning on visiting Magic Kingdom this week and have not yet made a park pass reservation, well, we’ve got some bad news for you.
Christmas Eve has finally arrived in Disney World.
Christmas is officially in Disney World!
Of course, we’ve been celebrating the holidays since early November, way back when the first decorations started going up in the parks. We went to the first Mickey’s Very Merry Christmas Party and we’ve been busy eating ALL the holiday snacks. But now, the day BEFORE the big day is finally here. Now, Christmas Eve is usually a very busy day in the parks, so let’s take a look at the crowds in Disney World.
The holiday season in Orlando theme parks usually starts pretty early (like a day or two after Halloween).
Holidays in Disney World
The holiday decorations are usually up before Halloween is even over. (Yes, really.) The holiday snacks come out, and the holiday parties begin shortly after Halloween. But do you know when the holidays actually END at Orlando theme parks? Well, we’re warning you that it’s SOON.
The holiday season in Disney World is — yes, we’re going to say it — magical.
Magic Kingdom during the holidays
The holiday decorations are AMAZING, the holiday snacks are DELICIOUS, and the holiday parties are so much fun. We’re sure you’ve made a list of everything to do in Disney World for the holidays if you’re visiting during this time, but there’s one thing probably missing from that list because it’s kind of a SECRET.
It’s Christmas weekend, and Disney World is celebrating in a HUGE way.
Happy Holidays from Magic Kingdom
Of course, the holiday decorations have been up since November. The holiday snacks have been around for a while, too. The EPCOT Festival of the Holidays is in full swing. But this weekend, something EXTRA is coming to Magic Kingdom, and it’s something you can usually only see if you have a ticket to Mickey’s Very Merry Christmas Party.
Disney’s Candlelight Processional has been a long-standing tradition at both Disneyland and Disney World.Â
@DisneyAulani
Disney’s Candlelight Processional is a fan-favorite nighttime show where folks will tune in as a celebrity narrator shares a biblical retelling of the Christmas Story alongside a choir of Cast Members. A Disney Resort has its very own version of Candlelight Processional, and y’all — we want to go SO BAD. [Read more…]
With the holidays kicking into full gear, that means the holiday crowds are, too!
Frontier Plane at the Orlando Airport
We’ve been keeping an eye on the crowds throughout the Disney parks, but there is another place that we like to check in on every once in a while to see what the crowds are like — and that is the Orlando International Airport (MCO). If you’ve ever flown to Disney World, you’ve probably visited this airport and maybe even heard about the nightmare it can be when it comes to crowds (we’re looking at you, TSA line). [Read more…]
