food IS a theme park
We’re getting ready to ring in the New Year in Disney World, and things are pretty busy right now!
Happy New Year!
We’re getting ready to say goodbye to the holiday season and hello to 2024. We’re already diving into some special New Year’s snacks and navigating all the crowds, but let’s take a look at something else today that we bet you’ll be interested in — the price of Genie+.
We’re in that final stretch before the end of the year where all the dates blend together and things get a little hazy!
2024 is coming fast!
Maybe you’re trudging through the last few days of the year at work, or maybe you’re one of the lucky ones on vacation (at Disney World perhaps?) but if you’re ringing in the New Year at home on December 31st, we know exactly where you tune in. Dick Clark’s New Year’s Rockin’ Eve with Ryan Seacrest will premiere live on ABC, and there’s going to be a big Disney surprise!
Can you believe it?
Who’s ready to party?
We’re only a few short days away from the last day of 2023 — New Year’s Eve. If you were hoping to celebrate at Disney World and didn’t grab a park reservation before they sold out, you’re not alone. The good news is that there are plenty of other ways to celebrate in the Orlando area. So, don’t you fret, Boba Fett (Ted Lasso reference, anyone?). Put on your glitter and dancing shoes and let’s get to planning New Year’s Eve in Orlando!
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…]
Have you ever spent the holidays in Disney World?
Raglan Road
We’re not talking about the holiday season, although it’s certainly magical. We’re talking about the ACTUAL holidays, like Christmas Day and New Year’s Eve. Now, there are plenty of places to get a good meal on Christmas and some fun New Year’s Eve activities, too, but if you’ll be in Disney Springs on either of those days, you might want to head to Raglan Road.
Happy holidays friends!
Cinderella Castle
Disney World has been a busy place this holiday season but there’s plenty to do with the debut of Jollywood Nights, the return of Mickey’s Very Merry Christmas Party, and the gingerbread displays around the hotels. There is still a lot in store for the parks before the year ends — let’s check out what’s changing in Disney World in December!
Park Pass rules are CHANGING for Disney World in 2024, but until then, you’ll need to reserve your days to visit the parks!
Journey of Water, Inspired by Moana
But as we head into the holiday season, planning in advance is about to become much more important! Disney World typically gets rather busy during the Thanksgiving and Christmas season, and we’re already starting to see Park Passes sell out for key dates. Let’s check the availability!
Want to ramp up the cost of your Disney World vacation? There are plenty of pricey experiences you can add to your trip!
Cinderella Castle
From stays at Deluxe Resorts to meals at signature restaurants, Disney offers quite a few luxury experiences. But if you’re heading to Disney World for the new year, then there’s one incredibly expensive addition you might want to know about!
Happy Halloween, DFB readers! We hope you’re having a scary good time today and are ready for trick or treating tonight.
Halloween in Magic Kingdom
While Disney is in full swing celebrating today, we needed to remind you about something important happening tomorrow. If you’re heading into Disney World for New Year’s Eve, there are some reservations you need to grab tomorrow!
It’s no secret how fast Disney World’s tickets, park pass reservations, and hotel rooms can sell out.
Animal Kingdom
Tickets for Mickey’s Not-So-Scary Halloween Party sold out weeks ago, and Jollywood Nights are following a similar path. Hotel accommodations on property also often fill up before popular times of the year come around, making last-minute solutions hard to find. If you’re heading to Disney World in 2024, these are the dates you need to book hotel reservations for right now!
