Hello, DFB friends, from EPCOT!
We took a stroll around the park to see what’s new, so here are the latest updates in food, construction, and merchandise!
EPCOT’s World Showcase has got some SERIOUSLY unique merch in the various countries.
The UK Pavilion has brought us some favorite souvenirs over the years at its various stores. And today, we spotted perhaps the COOLEST UK Pavilion merch yet. What’s more British than tea and pub fare? ROCK ‘N ROLL!
We’ve been a little obsessed with Fish and Chips recently. Maybe it’s because we saw those AMAZING Minnie Mouse Fish and Chips Ears (and all that other cool Fish and Chips merch). Or maybe it’s just because we’ve had a craving for some fried goodness.
So that’s why we got excited when we found out that the Yorkshire County Fish Shop at the U.K. Pavilion at EPCOT would reopen soon! We’ve wanted some fish and chips there since…well…since before Disney World reopened!
We may not be real-life Disney princesses and princes, but we do occasionally dine with royalty and visit their castles.
We can also deck ourselves out in the latest royal gear! And we just found the PERFECT royal merch for any royal wannabe!
When we think of iconic eats in EPCOT’s United Kingdom pavilion, Fish and Chips is one of the first menu items that comes to mind!
And apparently we’re not the only ones that appreciate the golden brown, deep-fried deliciousness of this dish. Because not only did we spy some AMAZING Fish and Chips Minnie Ears, but we just found a ton more Fish and Chips merch, too! We’re all about food-related merch at Disney World!
We were already excited that Yorkshire County Fish Shop is set to be open on the weekends now in EPCOT, but now we’ve found a way to celebrate our love for fish & chips all the time…
…Fish & Chips Minnie Mouse EARS!
We’ve eaten our way around the world (many times) at EPCOT, but thankfully calories don’t count at Disney (right?).
Well, if you’re like us and you’re still waiting for some of those closed restaurants in Disney World to reopen (so you can eat even MORE food), then you’ll be excited to hear that one quick-service spot in EPCOT was open this past weekend and should be available when you visit on the weekends.
UPDATE: According to Attractions Magazine, Disney has issued the following statement relating to the two attractions: “As with most businesses during this period, we are further evaluating long-term project plans. The decision was made to postpone development of [the] ‘Mary Poppins’-inspired attraction and Spaceship Earth at this time.”
We’re live from the grand reopening of EPCOT in Walt Disney World!
Prior to closing, EPCOT had announced a huge overhaul to the theme park. EPCOT would get a new look and add attractions like the Moana-inspired Journey of Water and a new PLAY! Pavilion with interactive experiences and characters. The new attractions and overhaul is displayed in the EPCOT Experience video. Today, we noticed something huge missing from the EPCOT Experience video. Well, TWO huge somethings missing from the video! [Read more…]
World Showcase is a spot in Disney World where you can find some truly unique merchandise items. And with all the exciting changes coming to Epcot and the U.K. Pavilion in the coming years (including a Mary Poppins attraction!), we’ve been checking in frequently to see what the latest findings are!
If you’re looking for unique souvenirs, we highly recommend you check out the many countries’ gift shops! Case in point, while we were gushing over the newest United Kingdom-inspired Minnie ears, we couldn’t help but notice some other new apparel that could totally match those ears to make a full-on U.K. outfit!
The PhotoPass photographers in Disney World capture the most magical moments of your vacation (with a special bit of extra pixie dust, of course).
And, the Disney PhotoPass Service is celebrating its 15th anniversary (!!!) with all-new, limited-time photo ops around the parks. We’ve already got our best Minnie ears picked out and ready to go!
