food IS a theme park
Listen, we get it. There’s one reason you’re hyped about your upcoming trip to EPCOT — Guardians of the Galaxy: Cosmic Rewind!
Guardians of the Galaxy: Cosmic Rewind
We’re here for it too! Getting to save Earth with our favorites Rocket, Groot, Drax, Gamora, and Star-Lord is such a rocking dream come true. But what happens when you’re hyped to experience the ride and you’ve got your Lightning Lane all set, and then the ride goes down? Let’s talk about it!
Disney ditched its Genie+ service earlier this year, and it was replaced with Lightning Lane Multi Pass and Lightning Lane Single Pass.
TRON Lightcycle / RUN Lighting Lane
Although the new service is, more or less, the same, it also offers the option to pre-book Lightning Lanes BEFORE your Disney World trip (seven days in advance for those staying at Disney World hotels and three days in advance for everyone else). The pricing for Lightning Lane Single Pass has remained similar to that of the Genie+ individual attraction selection, but we just noticed that a price increase is on the way!
A new character is dancing his way to EPCOT soon, Disney password crackdowns continue with a new paid service, AND I’m going to tell you how to get $1 coffee in Disney World this weekend.

All of the latest theme park news is coming up right now on DFB Guide.
Are you having trouble deciding where you should stay when you visit Disney World?
Disney World
There are over 25 hotels on Disney World property alone. It can be hard to find the right fit for you and your party. With three different hotel tiers, Value, Moderate, and Deluxe, each tier shares and has its benefits as compared to the others. While you may think the room size or proximity to the park may be some travelers’ top priority, a pool rule could actually sway where you stay!
Disney Cast Members do get certain perks as employees of Disney. Some of those perks include discounts on food and merchandise, as well as discounts on hotel stays. Cast Members can also get free theme park admission after two weeks of employment.
Magic Kingdom Cast Members
Disney Cast Members also get exclusive shopping opportunities, including a store called Cast Connections that’s exclusive to Disney employees where they can buy discounted merchandise. Well, ANOTHER shopping opportunity is coming up SOON for Cast Members, and let’s just say WE ARE SUPER JEALOUS. But, hey, we love Cast Members, and they make the magic, so they’ve earned it!

So if you want to get in touch with your emotions (see what we did there) and put a little more Joy into your life, here’s your chance.
From the massive D23 Ultimate Fan Event in Anaheim, California, we learned that a new Coco attraction is coming to the Disneyland Resort.Â

The attraction will be a boat ride in Disney California Adventure that, unsurprisingly given the plot of the film, will see music play a large role.

Marvel’s Deadpool & Wolverine is 2024’s second-most successful film, as the expletive-laden love letter to Marvel’s 20th Century Fox films has grossed over $1,000,000,000 and sits just behind Inside Out 2 in worldwide gross. However, if you didn’t see it in theaters, we know when the hit threequel will be available to watch at home!
During this year’s D23: The Ultimate Fan Event, Disney announced HUGE plans for MANY of its parks.
Sleeping Beauty Castle in Disneyland Paris
That included big plans for Disneyland Paris, where Walt Disney Studios Park is about to be reimagined as Disney Adventure World. Those plans also include a land entirely dedicated to The Lion King. However, those aren’t the only changes we’re going to see in Disneyland Paris. Disney just revealed NEW plans for a brand new restaurant, too!
