food IS a theme park
Be sure to check out our list of restaurants in the Magic Kingdom.
Hello from Magic Kingdom!
Magic Kingdom
We don’t have a lot of updates in food, merchandise, and construction today, but there are a few new things, so let’s get started!
The holidays are a time for many new Disney treats to make their debut.
The Friar’s Nook
We saw some awesome cupcakes, and some more unique desserts this year, but Disney announced earlier this week that some limited-time breakfast items would be coming to Magic Kingdom!
We absolutely LOVE spotting new menu items!
The Lunching Pad
That’s why we pay such close attention to any menu updates. Disney recently announced that some new breakfast items would be making their way to Magic Kingdom, and we had the chance to try them this morning!
There’s quite a bit of construction happening in Disney World right now!
Disney World Gateway
And that includes several projects in Magic Kingdom! From the completely drained Rivers of America to construction on the new TRON Lightcycle Run, things are moving right along ahead of the park’s 50th anniversary in 2021.
When you visit Disney World, you definitely want to take advantage of every second you’re there, and for some that means spending as much time as physically possible in the theme parks.
Tree of Life
Well, if you’ve got a trip to Disney World, you’ll definitely want to pay close attention to the theme park hours that have been announced for the days you’ll be there. So far, Disney has shared park hours through March 6th, 2021, but even the hours that have already been announced can often change. Just today we saw that Disney has EXTENDED park hours for early January!
Planning a trip to Disney World in 2021?
Spaceship Earth
Well, there are a quite a few things you should know about, like the return of Park Hopping, changes coming to the Star Wars: Rise of the Resistance Boarding Group afternoon sign-up time, a special 2021 offer that could get you 2 free days of park tickets, and the dates for the 2021 International Flower and Garden Festival. BUT, another important thing you’ll want to be aware of are Disney World theme park hours! Previously, hours were shared through February 27th, but now hours have been released through further in the year.
It may be hard to believe, but December 25th is next week! If you’re planning on heading to Disney World next week, you’ll definitely want to be prepared with all the latest essential park information.
Main Street Holiday Character Cavalcade
With that in mind, we’ve rounded up next week’s park hours as well as the latest Park Pass Reservation availability!
Just over a month ago, Disney announced that Park Hopping would be coming back to Walt Disney World at the start of 2021 in a modified way.
Cinderella Castle
The new system has quite a few rules and requirements different than the old way of Park Hopping you may be familiar with, one being that the ability to Park Hop is not guaranteed — instead, it’s entirely based on park availability (a.k.a. you might NOT get to hop if the parks are full). But, getting a ticket with the Park Hopper option is more expensive than a regular 1-day, 1-park pass. Will that additional cost be worth it for you under the modified system? Here are our thoughts.
Many reopened Disney restaurants have opened with slightly different menus or a completely new menu. But we have yet to see a restaurant serving up SEVERAL items from another closed restaurant in the park — until now!
Tomorrowland Terrace Reopening
Sure, you can grab Ronto Wraps or Chesire Cat Tails in a new place now, but we’re looking at Tomorrowland Terrace because it seems to be serving up quite a few old favorites from Columbia Harbour House! The restaurant just reopened today with this new menu, and we had to see how it compared to the original.
Disney World Park Hours have been changing quite a bit lately.
Cinderella Castle
Well, if you’re headed to Disney World for New Year’s Eve or planning to be there on January 1st, when Park Hopping begins, you’ll want to be up to date on the latest park hours to make sure you plan accordingly. Today, we noticed that park hours have been extended for the first few days in January!
