food IS a theme park
Although summer has been relatively quiet in Disney World, that doesn’t mean there hasn’t been a lot of stuff going on.
The Famous Cobb Salad from Hollywood Brown Derby
We did get to check out the new Caramel Flight from Karamell-Küche in EPCOT, after all. Speaking of EPCOT, a restaurant temporarily closed there, too! We also FINALLY got a look at ALL the menus for the EPCOT Food & Wine Festival. Meanwhile, Disney World restaurant menus saw some changes, so let’s see what’s different now!
We’ve got some great news for Disney golf fans!
Disney’s Palm & Magnolia Golf Course
Earlier this year, Disney’s Magnolia Golf Course closed for a lengthy refurbishment. Then in June, Disney revealed what the new golf course would look like when it was done. We didn’t know when that would be, but now Disney has announced when the golf course will be reopening!
Disney World vacations involve a LOT of planning. You need to get park tickets and park pass reservations, decide the best way to travel to the parks, make dining reservations, and choose a hotel. And even once you’ve done all that, you’re STILL not finished!
It takes a lot of planning to get here!
One of the most fun parts about visiting Disney World is going on rides and visiting the various attractions throughout the parks. So it can be very disappointing if you arrive at a certain attraction only to find out that it’s CLOSED. To help you plan for any of these closures, we’ve got a complete list of what’s going to be closed in Disney World in August! [Read more…]
Disney World was FULL of surprises this week!
Magic Kingdom
Not that it surprises us that Disney was surprising…er…something like that. Anyway, this week was full of holiday announcements, character meet-and-greet news, and lots more! Check out all the news here!
It’s no secret that Disney World has been going through an incredible transformation all throughout the property.
Spaceship Earth
From major construction in the parks and the resorts to updates on fan-favorite shows and more, your next Disney World trip could look markedly different from your last! We’ve been bringing you construction updates as we get them, but now we’re taking a look at every single Disney World project in the works — or at least the ones we know about!
April was a big month in Disney World! Expedition Everest finally reopened after a months-long closure, Salt & Straw in Disney Springs opened its doors, and traditional character meet-and-greets returned to the Disney parks for the first time in years!
Daisy!
We learned a lot in Disney World in April, so we’ve narrowed it down to 10 things you should take away from a month of Disney World news.
Things to do before your upcoming Disney World trip: triple check your suitcase (because we both know you probably forgot something), plan out the ~perfect~ Magic Kingdom outfit (complete with Mickey ears, of course), and — last, but not least — find out what’s going to be CLOSED during your vacation.
Walt Disney World Railroad
Disney is consistently updating rides, attractions, and hotels, which means that sometimes these things are unavailable for a while. We keep track of all the closures and reopenings in the parks and then bring you the updates so that you’re prepared before you get to Disney World! Check out our full list here of Disney World closures in May. [Read more…]
While the parks are where most people are focused during their vacation, there’s actually MUCH more to do in Disney World than ride rides and eat snacks (though we could do that all day).
Disney World
For example, did you know that Disney World is actually home to FULL-SIZED golf courses? We’re talking the full 18 holes! Adding a visit to the golf course during your trip can be a great way to take a break from the parks and add a little bit of Disney to an activity that you enjoy at home. But, soon one golf course will be getting some TLC resulting in a LONG closure!
No surprise here, we’re sharing some more holiday-related news! This week, Disney has been releasing holiday updates like crazy, and we’re NOT complaining!
Dapper Dans in Magic Kingdom
Some exciting holiday-related news has just come from Walt Disney World Golf! If you’re trying to find a gift for the golf-lover in your life, this may be for you!
Care for a round? If you’re taking on 18 holes at Disney World’s Palm, Magnolia, Lake Buena Vista or Oak Trail Golf Course and find yourself in need of a cool drink, then keep an eye out for some of these new Refreshment Carts with character.
