food IS a theme park
We are nearing the closing date of Big Thunder Mountain Railroad for its extended refurbishment closure at Magic Kingdom!

The popular roller coaster will close on January 6th and is set to reopen again in 2026. Disney hasn’t provided an official opening date but has only stated, “The attraction will reopen with a little bit of new magic in 2026.” However, we may have found a clue about a more concrete timeline.
Are you already planning out your 2025 trip to Disney World?
Magic Kingdom
As we all know, Magic Kingdom is usually the crown jewel of a Disney vacation, but I’m here to drop some truth that might make you rethink your park priorities next year. There’s one major, frustrating reason you might want to skip Magic Kingdom altogether in 2025. Let’s talk about it!
Well, it’s official — Magic Kingdom is about to become a big ‘ole mess of construction.
Big Thunder Mountain Railroad
You’d think we’d be used to so much construction after the LOOONNG EPCOT transformation, but we’re really worried about what that means for Magic Kingdom. It’s going to be bad enough seeing all that construction where Rivers of America and Tom Sawyer Island is to make way for the Frontierland Cars expansion, and we know there are going to be a lot of construction walls to walk around. However, we’re noticing a trend in some construction happening already behind Big Thunder Mountain Railroad that’s setting an unsightly trend.
In 2024, we’ve seen a lot in regards to The Walt Disney Company.
Cinderella Castle
We had a new Disney Cruise Line set sail, we saw World of Frozen open in Hong Kong Disneyland, and a lot of closures were announced. As we reflect on this past year, there is one word that really stands out to us. But before we tell you, here are some of the runner-ups.
Big things are happening at Magic Kingdom and, maybe most importantly, these changes are going to affect our wardrobe!

At D23 2024: The Ultimate Disney Fan Event, Disney FINALLY confirmed a new Villains Land coming to Magic Kingdom. With a new land comes new outfit options! Fortunately, Amazon has us covered with a new shirt that will be the PERFECT thing to wear as we welcome the Disney Villains to “The Most Magical Place On Earth”!
It’s safe to say that starting in 2025, Magic Kingdom is about to look VERY different.
Magic Kingdom
“The Most Magical Place on Earth” has a lot planned for 2025. Long refurbishments, massive (and we mean MASSIVE) construction, and new entertainment have been announced for Disney World. Let’s go over these changes and see just how much the future of Magic Kingdom will be impacted!
2024 is quickly coming to an end before our eyes.

It might come as a shock, but we are already nearly halfway through December. In less than a month, we’ll be counting down to the new year and trying to remember to write 2025 instead of 2024 on anything we’re adding a date to. As we look toward 2025 and the new year of possibilities, it’s also fun to look behind us and reflect on all the good, exciting, and happy things that have passed in 2024. This was an eventful year in the world of Disney, and we want to celebrate some of the best things that happened. So come along with us as we remember all the great announcements, changes, endings, and beginnings for Disney and Disney fans in 2024!
Disney adults were HYPED when Disney announced that a Villains Land would be built in Magic Kingdom. However, there are mixed opinions about the new villain attraction coming to Disney’s Hollywood Studios.

Why is Disney’s newest villain attraction already raising eyebrows, especially when lots of Disney fans were excited when it was announced? Let’s dive into the controversy surrounding this new show.
Tons of construction is coming for Disney World in 2025, and it’s time to really break down what we need to expect.
Magic Kingdom
Yes, we know WHAT’S coming — a new Villains Land and Cars-themed Land in Magic Kingdom, Muppets Courtyard is becoming Monsters, Inc. Land in Hollywood Studios, and Tropical Americas aka Pueblo Esperanza is taking over Dinoland U.S.A. in Animal Kingdom — but what will all of this construction actually look like in the parks? Let’s take a look at the maps — they reveal a LOT.
Major changes are about to hit Disney World.
Magic Kingdom
It was announced that Disney World would be getting eight new rides, which is super exciting, but in order to enjoy these rides, we have to deal with construction. You can expect to see construction in all four parks starting in 2025. Not only does construction mean walls around the parks, but it also means that we can expect lengthy closures, like Big Thunder Mountain’s year-long closure in Magic Kingdom.
