food IS a theme park
Get excited: another character dining spot is reopening in Disney World!
EPCOT
Chef Mickey’s, Cape May Cafe, The Crystal Palace, and more have all brought back their character dining experiences, but character dining in EPCOT has been a bit more limited lately. At Garden Grill, you can eat with Mickey and some of his friends, but what if you want a Princess-filled dining experience? Well, soon one spot at EPCOT will reopen that’ll give you just that!
If you’re going to Mickey’s Very Merry Christmas Party this holiday season in Disney World and you want to take your experience to the next level, get ready!
This event is full of fun surprises!
Tickets for this holiday party are already on sale and starting to sell out. Those who attend the party will get the chance to grab some special snacks, check out a unique parade and holiday-themed fireworks, and more. But if you want to really make your party experience special, you might want to book a fireworks dessert party package or dining reservation!
There comes a time when your kids start to get old enough to want to go to Disney World (for ours, it was basically the second they were born. Shocker, right?). Or maybe you haven’t been for a while, and you really want to go back — with your baby this time.
Cinderella Castle
Whatever your situation, it can be a pretty hard decision to choose when you’re ready to take those kids to Disney World! After all, Disney is GEARED towards kids in many ways, so you don’t want to miss the window that they’re going to enjoy in a way that only kids can.
So, what is the best age to take kids to Disney World? We’re taking a look at the pros and cons of taking your at different ages. Check it out!
Well, we saw a lot of price increases in Disney World this week.
Be Our Guest Restaurant
Some were for food (we’ll get to that in a bit), but we also saw a price increase for Genie+ and the service switched to flexible pricing, meaning you’ll pay even more when demand is high. We’ve touched a little upon the food increases, but here’s the thing — there were a LOT more and we’re unpacking ALL those restaurant menu changes for you right here.
If you want to visit Disney World in October, there’s one thing you need to prepare for — CROWDS.
Magic Kingdom
From visitors coming to Disney World for Mickey’s Not-So-Scary Halloween Party or EPCOT’s Food & Wine Festival, there’s a lot to do in October — and the wait times don’t lie. Last week wait times were holding steady as the holiday approached, but what about this week?
The year 2020 provided some unique challenges for Disney World, especially after the parks were closed for several months due to the COVID-19 pandemic. When the parks reopened, capacity was limited, but since then, a lot has changed.
Disney World
Capacity in the parks is back up (although park pass reservations are still required and are probably not going away anytime soon), and with the 50th anniversary celebration, along with some new attractions, guests have been returning to the parks in droves. But what does attendance look like as compared to pre-pandemic levels?
As we get closer and closer to Halloween, Disney World is getting more and more busy!
Allll the Halloween vibes in Magic Kingdom right now!
And, it’s totally understandable, because there are a lot of things to do! You can take a look at all of the holiday decor, eat spooky treats, attend Mickey’s Not-So-Scary Halloween Party, and more. But, if you’re going to the parks soon, it’s necessary to take a look at the calendar before you go. And, don’t forget that you still need a Park Pass Reservation to get into the parks — so we’ve compiled that info right here just for you!
This week brought some HUGE changes to Disney World.
Disney Genie
First, we saw price increases on everything from Minnie Ears to water to food. Then, we learned that Genie+ would begin using flexible pricing, with a max of $22 per day on busier days. Well, as of today, we’ve officially reached that max price for the service.
What a week it has been.
EPCOT
Hundreds of price increases have impacted all kinds of things at Disney World (and Disneyland), we got a big Fantasmic! update, and we even got some Genie+ news. If you’re going to Disney World soon or just want to stay up on the latest Disney news, these are the 5 news stories you cannot miss from this week.
Picture it: You’ve just finished riding Avatar: Flight of Passage, and your next Lightning Lane isn’t until 1:30PM, when suddenly, your stomach starts grumbling.
Tree of Life in Disney World
There are a lot of places you could eat in Animal Kingdom, but it can be difficult to know where to start! Well, we’ve got you covered! We’ve already ranked ALL of the restaurants in this park, but today we’re taking a close look at one particular item to see if it’s worth your cash!
