food IS a theme park
It goes without questions that of all the Disney World parks, EPCOT is THE place for festivals!
Festival days are BIG here at DFB!
With incredible and immersive festivals taking place practically year-round, it’s practically impossible to choose a favorite one! Or is it?!
Our DFB Readers are like us — obsessed with everything Disney.

And that means that like us, we had a feeling you had pets named after Disney characters. So we asked you on Twitter to share your pet photos with us, and YOU DID NOT DISAPPOINT!
One of the best parts about Disney World is that it’s always changing! New rides, snacks, and shows are constantly coming to parks.

Sadly, one of the WORST things about Disney World…is ALSO that it’s always changing. Favorite attractions, snacks, and shows leave the parks all the time, gone forever. We took to Facebook to see what our readers (that’s you!) wanted to see return to Disney World! Here are a few of the most popular picks.
When it comes to visiting Disney World, it usually never feels like there’s enough time to do everything.
Tomorrowland in Magic Kingdom
And there isn’t! Disney World is huge and full of so many activities, attractions, events, entertainment, and more that it’s impossible to do it all in one trip. We recommend making a list of your priorities and then figuring out what to do. But you also need to know when not to WASTE time on your trip, right?

This won’t come as a shock, but Disney World is FILLED with iconic attractions, events, restaurants, snacks, and of course, RIDES!

A lot of people loved to use the Dining Plan on their Disney World vacations.

With the Disney Dining Plan, guests could basically pre-pay for their meals, drinks, and snacks by purchasing one of four different plans. Then during their vacation, guests would have “credits” to use for snacks, quick-service meals, and table-service meals. When Disney World reopened last year, they did not bring back the Dining Plan. So we asked all of you whether you thought the plan would return this year, and if not, when do you think it’ll come back?
Disney World’s Genie feature is officially live in the parks now.

Guests can buy Genie+ for $15 per ticket, per day to skip the line for most Disney World rides. But the two most popular rides in each park have a separate fee to skip the line. These rides use Individual Attraction Selection (or Pay-Per-Ride), and the fees range in price from $7 to $15 right now. So how long would the wait have to be for you to pay to skip the line?

But recently, safety measures like face masks were put back into place, regardless of vaccination status.
