food IS a theme park
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!
The EPCOT entrance area has already gotten some seriously MASSIVE upgrades.
Jaw. Dropping. Beauty.
First, there’s the new entrance fountain, which lights up beautifully. Then, we’ve got the new flags and the new entrance music. And not too long ago we got to see those incredible new lights all around the entrance area that make this spot truly SPECTACULAR at night. But, this whole area will soon be getting ANOTHER new addition!
Can you believe it’s already March? Like wasn’t it just Christmas yesterday?
Spaceship Earth and the New Lights
Okay, so we’re only THREE months into the New Year, but SO MUCH has happened at Disney World in 2021 already! Not only do we have a huge 18-month-long 50th birthday party to attend, but some parks and resorts are already looking a LOT different!
EPCOT is looking pretty snazzy today!
2021 EPCOT Flower and Garden Festival
Not only is one of the most beautiful festivals kicking off with EPCOT Flower and Garden, but the entrance area of the park near Spaceship Earth has REALLY come into its own lately. Now, Imagineers are celebrating the transformation with a special finishing touch.
Here at the DFB we love a good food photo — and we know you do, too.

One of the lesser-known, but still pretty awesome restaurants in Disney’s theme parks is Yak & Yeti, found in the Asia section of Disney’s Animal Kingdom
Our experiences there have always been good when it comes to the food, but one of my favorite parts of the dining spot is the decor.
It’s clear that Disney’s imagineers searched high and low for authentic props and “set dressing” for this restaurant, and I’ve always been captivated by the lighting particularly.
On a visit many years ago, I snapped shots of several of lamps, light fixtures, and even chandeliers that make this restaurant so eclectic. I just came across the pics and wanted to share them with you. Be sure to leave a comment and let me know which Disney restaurant decor you’re most fond of!
Yak and Yeti Restaurant
This incredible chandelier hangs above the main staircase up to the second floor. Its tiered crystals practically drip down to the railing!
