food IS a theme park
We are huge supporters of planning ahead for your Disney World trip, but what about planning ahead by over 20 years?
Main Street, U.S.A.
Well, if you are a fan of solar eclipses, you may want to consider planning a Disney World trip for August 12th, 2045.
Halloween is in full effect at Disney World and Magic Kingdom is certainly proud of it!
So cute!!!
From the iconic Mickey pumpkin Wreaths to the adorable pumpkin scarecrows, Main Street, U.S.A. is full of spooky holiday fun, and we are loving it! But, the festivities don’t just stop there.
Even a hurricane making landfall won’t stop Disney World from getting into the Halloween spirit!
Halloween has arrived in Magic Kingdom!
With the start of Mickey’s Not-So-Scary Halloween Party THIS Friday, August 9th, we have been eagerly awaiting Halloween to arrive in Magic Kingdom. Well, we finally got our wish!
There has been a change on Main Street, U.S.A., recently, but it may not be very obvious to some.
Main Street
Disney World has seen so many changes over the last few years! From additions like Tron Lightcycle / Run and Tiana’s Bayou Adventure in Magic Kingdom to the completion of the EPCOT Transformation, Disney World has been in a state of change. And this is good. Walt once said that Disneyland will never be completed, and the same goes for Disney World! Well, recently, there was a new change on Main Street, but this time, it benefitted Cast Members!
Are you looking for another excuse to plan a trip to Disney World? Well, we have the perfect reason for you!
Magic Kingdom
Disney World likes to celebrate the holidays a little early, and by early, we mean Halloween in August! Magic Kingdom will soon be gearing up to host Mickey’s Not So Scary Halloween Party, but preparations for the party may start popping up sooner than you would think!
Magic Kingdom is filled with fun secrets and surprises for guests to participate in throughout the day.
The Partner’s Statue
You may be selected to throw the first pitch over at Casey’s Corner, or you may be the chosen one who can lift the sword out of the stone in Fantasyland! Well, one of our reporters got picked to do something special over at the Main Street Cinema, and some of you might not have known about this experience.
No trip to Disney World is complete without a sweet treat. That’s a rule. (And also a great rhyme.)
The Confectionery
One of our favorite places to grab a treat is at the iconic Main Street Confectionery in Magic Kingdom. Here, you can choose from a seemingly endless array of treats, from popular Mars Wrigley candies, to crisped rice treats, to cupcakes, cookies, marshmallow pops, and MORE. One of our favorite things to do here, though, is visit the Kernel Kitchen popcorn station at the very back of the shop. Cast Members will allow you to customize a bowl of popcorn with candies and syrups, and you can even opt for one of Disney’s popcorn mixes. They make it right in front of you, and it’s pretty cool. There’s a new popcorn mix that’s up for grabs right now, and we’re headed to check it out.
A super fun part of any Disney vacation is picking out the perfect souvenir to commemorate your trip.
Disney Merch
But which souvenir is best? Some people go for Loungefly bags, or maybe apparel, like Spirit Jerseys. Maybe you want to go for something that you can display in your home to remind you of your vacation. Regardless of what you choose, we have something you should consider before you leave Magic Kingdom on your next trip!
One of our favorite parts about Main Street, U.S.A., is that it truly does have a Small Town, U.S.A., feel to it. After all, it WAS modeled after Walt Disney’s hometown of Marceline, Missouri.
Main Street, USA in Magic Kingdom
With old-fashioned-looking shops and confectionery, a train station, and a hotdog and ice cream shop on the corners, it truly has that vintage American feel. There’s one time of year that Main Street, U.S.A., feels even more like it came straight from a scene in an old movie — the 4th of July!
