food IS a theme park
Disney World’s 50th anniversary celebration kicked off in October and is going strong!
Cinderella Castle is ready to continue celebrating the 50th Anniversary!
We’ve seen a new cavalcade, fireworks, and merchandise, as well as tried a LOT of special food for the occasion. Another way Disney is celebrating is with new fireworks dessert parties in Magic Kingdom. And, more availability just opened up for the parties!
Disney World’s 50th anniversary has come with a lot of new merchandise!
Happy Birthday, Disney World!
We’ve seen a bunch of Minnie Ears, several different collections, and special things like popcorn buckets and balloons. One of those items was the 50th Anniversary Celebration Minnie Mouse Sipper. It was in Magic Kingdom on October 1st, but quickly sold out. Now, it’s coming back to the park, but in an unusual way.
We’ve been hanging out in Disneyland lately, trying all kinds of festive treats.
It’s the holiday season!
We had lots of tasty snacks at the Festival of Holidays, and there were even more options to choose from at the Merriest Nites holiday party. Right now, though, we’re going to check out a returning treat that’s available during the day! Let’s see if this dessert is as delicious as we remember. [Read more…]
Disney Merriest Nites at Disneyland Park is a new after-hours holiday event taking place on five different nights throughout November and December 2021.
So jolly!
We had the chance to visit the first night of this new holiday event and we experienced ALL the entertainment, including six unique holiday parties hosted by different Disney characters throughout Disneyland AND a Christmas parade!
Disneyland is the land of the churro, with lots of different flavors and a variety of dipping sauces to go with them.
Churro Cart at Disneyland
We’ve already tried a few churros on our holiday trip in Disneyland, including one piled high with toffee and another that we dipped in cookies. Now we’re headed to Tomorrowland, because there’s yet ANOTHER holiday churro waiting for us there.
Disney World is a great place to take pictures!
Magic Kingdom
Whether you’re snagging Magic Shots from PhotoPass photographers, your own pics of the fam, or even just beautiful photos of the parks around you; it’s hard not to keep that camera out and snapping away. There are some iconic photo spots around Magic Kingdom but we have to say…you’re using one of them WRONG.
Things don’t always go according to plan at Disney World, especially with attractions.
Remember Plant Donald?
Sometimes, special effects don’t work properly, sometimes animatronics break down, sometimes other issues cause rides to be evacuated. It happens. And today, we experienced some ride technical issues at Magic Kingdom.
Sure, Halloween is just over a week away, but the Disney Parks are already getting into the holiday spirit.
There’s something different about the castle…There’s SNOW!
We’ve seen holiday decorations at Disney World and Disneyland, and we’ve already gotten a sneak peek of holiday merchandise! Disneyland even got a brand new year-round holiday store. And recently we stopped by one specific spot where it really is beginning to look a lot like Christmas!
When it comes to favorite lands at Disney World, everyone has their own opinion!
Fantasyland
While some Disney fans think Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge is one of the best-themed lands in all of Disney World, others think that World Showcase is completely underrated by EPCOT guests. And some guests love the charm of Fantasyland, while others prefer the bioluminescent details of Pandora. No matter how you cut it, though, Disney fans think some lands are overrated, while others aren’t. So we asked you, our DFB readers, about the lands at Disney World! And here’s what 23,000 of you said!
Today is Walt Disney World’s 50th anniversary!
Happy 50th!!
We’re here in the parks checking everything out for the celebration — from fireworks to merchandise to food! And boy oh boy, there is a LOT of new food here. Disney announced some interesting treats for the anniversary, including a very unique dessert that you’ll never guess the theme of!
