food IS a theme park
Disney World’s 50th Anniversary is less than two weeks away and Disney is gearing up for the big day (recently, 100 new pieces of anniversary merch dropped on the same day!).
Cinderella Castle
Today, we spotted a fun way Disney is commemorating its 50 years of magic!
Hello to our DFB Friends. We’re on the West Coast and diving into everything Disneyland Resort!
Happy Halloween from Downtown Disney!
So while we’ve been enjoying all the Halloween snacks, the Oogie Boogie Bash, and getting ready for the holidays, we’ve been all over Disneyland to see what’s new!
In case you missed it, it is officially Halloween Time at Disneyland Resort!
Halloween Decor at Disneyland Resort
We’re enjoying all the fun Halloween decorations, snacks, merchandise, and more! We’ve even been to our first Oogie Boogie Bash at Disney California Adventure. Bring on all things spooky!
The Halloween season will kick off at the Disneyland Resort on September 3rd, and Disney California Adventure’s after-hours event Oogie Boogie Bash will begin on September 9th! That’s right, we’re just a couple of weeks away from the Happiest Place on Earth transforming into the Spookiest Place on Earth!
Disneyland is preparing for Halloween!
If you’re visiting Downtown Disney this fall, there’s a special pumpkin hunt to check out that comes with a fun prize!
When you think of FREE things at Disney World you might think of free water (hopefully), free maps, free buttons, free transportation for Disney hotel guests, and a few other things that are available in the parks and resorts at no additional cost.
Time to Go to Magic Kingdom for a FREE Game!
There are also some great, FREE games you can play in the parks. You might know about Sorcerers of the Magic Kingdom (which ended this year) and the Play Disney Parks app. But to play this game you’ll need to head to one very specific place in Magic Kingdom…a restroom!
We’ve spent a lot of time at this year’s EPCOT Flower and Garden Festival checking out all the amazing food!
It’s Spike the Bee!
But we also took time to check out some of the entertainment AND fun activities, including Spike’s Pollen-Nation Exploration, which is a scavenger hunt that takes you all over EPCOT.
If you’ve been to an EPCOT festival, then you know that Disney is all about those scavenger hunts!
EGG-stravaganza Map for the EPCOT Flower & Garden Festival
Most festivals have some kind of activity where you purchase a map and then search around the park for hidden characters. Since Easter is coming soon, there are egg-themed scavenger hunts in both Disney World and Disneyland Resort. And now, you can experience all the fun of these activities in your own home!
When it comes to celebrating all things spring and Easter, Disneyland Resort has a few ways to celebrate!
White Rabbit Easter Egg
Not only does Disney release those AMAZING chocolate Easter eggs (NOM!), but Disneyland also hosts an Eggstravaganza. This is a scavenger hunt that invites guests to find character-themed Easter Eggs in the theme parks and Downtown Disney. And it’s SO much fun!
Our handy (and portable!) ebook guides make sure you get the best deals and can plan a vacation of a lifetime.
