We got the low-down on the financials of the company, including updates about Disney+ and the theme parks division. On top of that, we learned more about some changes that will be coming in the future…including some BIG projects that Disney is working on! And one of those projects might bring Avatar to the west coast.
Happy holidays from Disney World, it’s time to eat some sweets!
It’s the holiday season!
We’ve tried dozens of treats all around the parks and resorts this holiday season, but we’re not done yet, even though Christmas is just a few days away. Today, we’re heading to Animal Kingdom to pick up a delicious snack from years past!
Disney World can be OVERWHELMING.
Tree of Life
Thousands of people, lots of noise, long lines for most things, and lots of panicky families trying to create magical memories…sometimes it’s a little too much. So what do you do when the chaos gets the best of you and you start to feel anxious in the middle of your vacation? Well, recently we’ve shared some of our favorite hidden spots to visit in Magic Kingdom, EPCOT, or Hollywood Studios when the anxiety gets to be too much, but now we’re heading to Animal Kingdom!
If you’ve been keeping up with current movie news, there’s one BIG blockbuster film that everyone has been highly anticipating…
Animal Kingdom’s Pandora
…it’s Avatar: The Way of Water! Fans have waited more than a decade for the sequel to Avatar, a movie that basically smashed box office records when it was first released in 2009. Now, the second movie is out, and Disney World is celebrating at Pandora — The World of Avatar in a special way. [Read more…]

Finally, after 13 years since the original movie was released, Avatar: The Way of Water will be coming to theaters, and there are a lot of expectations. The first film was one of the biggest box office successes of all time and even inspired its own land in Animal Kingdom. But will things in Pandora — The World of Avatar at Disney World be changing with the second movie?
Let’s head over to Disney’s Animal Kingdom to see what’s new!
The Tree of Life
We’re always looking for the latest around Animal Kingdom — new food, construction updates, merchandise arrivals, etc. And this week, we noticed some new merchandise that celebrates Pandora — The World of Avatar and the Main Street Electrical Parade (perhaps a bit random in Animal Kingdom, but we love to see some Main Street Electrical Parade representation). So, without further delay, let’s dive into what’s new at Animal Kingdom!
Jambo, everyone (that means hello, if you didn’t know)!
Tree of Life in Animal Kingdom
We go to the Disney World parks every day, and today we’re bringing you latest updates in construction, merchandise, and food from Disney’s wildest theme park — Animal Kingdom!
It’s been 13 years since Avatar was released in theaters, earning over $2.8 billion, making it the highest grossing movie of all time. It inspired an entire area in Disney’s Animal Kingdom, Pandora — The World of Avatar (which is celebrating its 5th Anniversary soon, by the way), and since the initial movie’s release, many have been eagerly waiting for information about its sequel.
Pandora — the World of Avatar
We recently got to see the teaser trailer for the new movie, Avatar: The Way of Water, and when it is released, James Cameron is hoping to reintroduce a dying film medium: films in 3D.
Disney World’s 50th Anniversary isn’t the only celebration happening around the parks!
Pandora — the World of Avatar
A ton of celebrations will take place on May 27th too! While Guardians of the Galaxy: Cosmic Rewind will officially launch in EPCOT that day, an entirely different celebration will be taking place as well. That celebration is the 5-year anniversary of the opening of Pandora — The World of Avatar! And if you can’t visit Animal Kingdom to celebrate, no worries! You’re able to snag some celebratory merchandise from home!
Have you had the chance to check out Pandora: The World of Avatar at Disney’s Animal Kingdom?
Pandora: The World of Avatar
This remarkable and truly immersive area of the park is themed after the James Cameron movie Avatar, and May 27th marks the land’s five-year anniversary of being open in Animal Kingdom. And now — thirteen years later — the world is finally getting an Avatar sequel. Disney just shared a brand-new teaser trailer for the film and we’re sharing the details!
