food IS a theme park
Blizzard Beach is BACK!
Blizzard Beach
Walt Disney World’s water park themed as a ski resort slowly melting in the Florida sun recently reopened after its annual refurbishment. In addition to iconic attractions like Summit Plummet, guests at the park will also be able to try out some NEW food offerings. But are they worth it? We found out!
After months and months of waiting, a Disney World park finally reopened today!
Summit Plummet at Blizzard Beach
Disney’s Blizzard Beach Water Park has been closed since March while Typhoon Lagoon was operating for the summer instead. But, as of November 4th, Blizzard Beach has opened for the season and we’re bringing you with us to check it all out!
Hang the garland and turn on Mariah Carey — it’s time to celebrate the holidays!
Magic Kingdom
We know what you’re saying — “It’s too soon!” — and we get it. But as soon as November 1st hits, it’s officially the winter holidays…at least according to Disney World! Heck, there are ALREADY loads of festive souvenirs making their way into the parks in mid-October. No matter where you stand on this debate, some pretty big changes are coming to Disney World in November, so let’s get into it!
Do you visit the water parks when you go to Disney World?
Blizzard Beach
Disney World is home to both Blizzard Beach Water Park and Typhoon Lagoon Water Park. The parks generally rotate being open throughout the year so that one of them is available for visitors at a time. They’re a great way to enjoy a slightly more relaxing day than you would have at one of the theme parks, and if you’re a water park fan, we’ve got good news for you!
There are MORE benefits to staying at a Disney World hotel these days!
Port Orleans Resort — French Quarter
With offerings like the Disney Dining Plan and the option to book your Lightning Lanes 7 days before your vacation, there are definitely more perks to staying at a Disney Resort than there used to be. But coming in 2025, there will be a NEW offering…and we’ve got a way to hack it!
Blink and 2025 will be here and that means your Disney World trip will be here, too!
Disney’s Yacht Club Resort
Being that 2025 is right around the corner, we’ve got no time to waste! Before you go doing things like booking the hotel, we’ve got to talk about some of the huge hotel changes that are coming up in 2025 that could affect your trip! Let’s go!
Disney World is making quite a few changes these days.
Cinderella Castle in Disney World’s Magic Kingdom
From completely overhauling Genie+ to planning expansions for the theme parks, we’re basically floating in a SEA of Disney news and wondering how all of it is going to affect our next vacation…and yours! And along those lines, Disney announced a new hotel guest perk a while back, and we think it’s going to cause some CHAOS.
It’s time to EAT!
Typhoon Lagoon After Hours
We’ve been checking out Disney’s H2O Glow After Hours event at the Typhoon Lagoon water park, and there’s a lot to do! You can hop on rides with shorter-than-usual wait times, meet characters, and visit the DJ dance party. But you’re bound to get hungry doing all of that partying, so let’s check out some of the food at this event! [Read more…]
With the cost of Genie+ rising, massive crowds during certain times of the year, and staving off the heat on top of all of that during the summer months — it’s easy to see why so many people would opt to do an after-hours event at Disney World instead.
H2O Glow Nights at Typhoon Lagoon
And, if you were thinking about going to H2O Glow Nights at Disney’s Typhoon Lagoon water park, we just found plenty of delicious new reasons for you to get those tickets!
Water parks are a great option during the heat of the summer. You can cool off in the clear waters and race down water slides.
Disney’s Typhoon Lagoon
Disney World has two different water parks: Disney’s Typhoon Lagoon and Disney’s Blizzard Beach (currently closed for the season). We always love a water park day, but we were curious about what goes on behind the scenes. Are there water park horror stories from people who have worked there?
