food IS a theme park
Happy Fourth of July week! It’s time for red, white, and blue TREATS, fireworks, and fun decor around the parks.
4th of July Treats!
And Disney is gearing up a few days early with some new patriotic treat offerings, so keep your eyes peeled everywhere you go around Disney World this week!
Hooray for HOLLYWOOD STUDIOS…
Disney’s Hollywood Studios
… where, as you’ll see in the photos we’re sharing below, the clouds may roll in and out over the Florida summer, but the fun never stops! And we’re here to check out WHAT’S NEW in the park this week!
Disney’s Hollywood Studios will be one of six locations that guests can visit by way of the Disney Skyliner gondolas when the new transportation system opens this fall. [Read more…]
“Hot Dog, Hot Dog, Hot Diggity Dog!” Have you ever wondered if Disney has a take on those bacon-wrapped hot dogs that street vendors sell in LA?
Main “Street” Dog
Well, wonder no more… because they do — at least for now — with the new Main “Street” Dog.
Happy weekend! We’ve been hard at work in the parks scoping out all the latest news for you, which is compiled here! First, a few things to remember…
The 2019 Epcot Food and Wine Festival kicks off August 29 and we’re covering it all! Did you see the menus that are out now? See every single Food and Wine Festival MENU and some FOOD PHOTOS as well — here!

“Grub” Burger in Disney Springs
We have a lot to share with you this week, so let’s jump right in…
We love Cookes of Dublin for their delicious Irish-inspired eats — and for the fact that this counter service spot serves something unique in the realm of Disney World eats (save for neighboring Raglan Road Irish Pub & Restaurant, of course!).

And we’re happy to say that Cookes has just introduced several brand-new menu items! You know we had to go take a bite… or ten. [Read more…]
Disney is making efforts to move in a more environmentally-friendly direction.
Epcot Reusable Shopping Bags
They have done this, for instance, by switching to paper straws in the parks and by introducing reusable shopping bags over the past several months. A more recent development, however, is that Disney has just started to add refillable water bottle stations to a few locations. [Read more…]
Progress on the construction of the upcoming Disney Skyliner gondola transportation system continues to move full steam ahead.
Disney Skyliner Gondola
Set to open this fall (we’re hoping it’ll be sooner and, based on the apparent pace of construction, it just might be), the Disney Skyliner gondolas will transport guests to and from locations including Epcot, Hollywood Studios, the upcoming Disney’s Riviera Resort (which is currently open for booking), Pop Century, Art of Animation, and Caribbean Beach Resort.
Just a friendly reminder that Dining Packages for Epcot’s Candlelight Processional will open for booking on July 3, 2019!
Candlelight Processional
Disney World’s Candlelight Processional is a popular event during the Epcot International Festival of the Holidays. The event happens three times each night at the America Gardens Theater in the American Adventure Pavilion. [Read more…]
We are always on the hunt for the newest and cutest Minnie Mouse Ear headbands.

The choices just keep expanding! And thanks to @weknowdisney on Instagram, we can show you this new headband that turns our attention to Ariel (though we’ll never forget you, Minnie!) with the MERMAID-themed headband that is making a splash in Disneyland! [Read more…]
Last year, Disney shared that “‘O Canada!” — the Circle-Vision 360° film in Epcot’s Canada Pavilion — would be getting an update with new footage and an upgrade to the projection system.
O Canada
Yesterday, as part of sharing information about the 2019 Epcot Food and Wine Festival, the announcement was revisited. [Read more…]
