food IS a theme park
Disney World just introduced a brand-new Annual Passholder program a few weeks back, and there have been some big changes!
50th Anniversary designs for Annual Passes!
The pass options and pricing were updated for those who wanted to purchase or renew their passes, and now there are some brand-new offerings in the My Disney Experience app for Passholders to check out.
Over the past year (and beyond), we’ve been keeping an eye on Disney’s stock and how it has changed with the onset of the pandemic, the launch of hit shows on Disney+, and more.

Now, with just a little less than a month to go to Disney+ Day and Disney’s next quarterly earnings call, we’re getting an updated look at Disney’s stock, and some analysts’ thoughts on the situation with Disney+.
Happy 50th Anniversary Disney World! The big 18-month long celebration has just begun and there’s a TON of new merch showing up everywhere in Disney World.

Even though you may just think about the 50th Anniversary of Magic Kingdom park, there are two opening-day resorts that deserve some love as well — Disney’s Contemporary Resort and Disney’s Polynesian Village Resort. We already spotted a new anniversary collection of merchandise at the Contemporary, and now it’s the Polynesian Resort’s turn!

The Disney Princess Half Marathon Weekend will take place on February 24th-27th in 2022, with races themed to Mulan, Cinderella, Moana, and Tiana. Recently, Disney shared a FIRST LOOK at the medals racers will be able to snag and, because this marathon will take place during Disney World’s 50th anniversary celebration, the runDisney medals will shine with an EARidescent shimmer. Let’s take a look!
With so much going on for the 50th anniversary of Disney World, you may have forgotten that it’s also EPCOT’s 39th anniversary!
Spaceship Earth’s makeover is SO PRETTY
The park opened on October 1st, 1982 and has had a very storied history. EPCOT has evolved greatly over time, with many of the original attractions now gone, and the park currently undergoing a huge transformation. And, if you’re a big fan of EPCOT, you’re going to want to see these posters that were just released on shopDisney!
When it comes to Marvel, we know many fans are REALLY excited for everything debuting in the parks and on the big screen. Spider-Man: No Way Home‘s debut is just around the corner, while brand new characters have made their way to Avengers Campus in Disney California Adventure.

But, recently some major changes have been made when it comes to Marvel’s upcoming film schedule.
Disney has all kinds of merchandise available inside the parks.
Toy Story Merchandise
At gift shops in the Disney parks, you’ll generally find home decor, stuffed animals, mugs, pins, and so much more. But the newest Disney item we found is actually online, which means you can buy it from wherever you happen to be. And if you’re a big Pixar fan, you’re going to want to take a look at this!
When it comes to favorite lands at Disney World, everyone has their own opinion!
Fantasyland
While some Disney fans think Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge is one of the best-themed lands in all of Disney World, others think that World Showcase is completely underrated by EPCOT guests. And some guests love the charm of Fantasyland, while others prefer the bioluminescent details of Pandora. No matter how you cut it, though, Disney fans think some lands are overrated, while others aren’t. So we asked you, our DFB readers, about the lands at Disney World! And here’s what 23,000 of you said!
Why do we get so invested in Disney World snacks? The easiest answer is because they’re just SO good. But that’s not always the case, is it? Sometimes, these treats develop a backstory.

They come, they go, they return, they leave again — and they have us wondering…why?
UPDATE: These were previously SOLD OUT on shopDisney, but have since come back in stock. You’ll want to act fast to grab them before they sell out again!
All kinds of holidays and special events are being celebrated in Disney World right now.
Holiday Decor is HERE
Halloween is still happening with lots of treats and the BOO Bash After Hours events. The 50th Anniversary celebration is also here, which equals even MORE treats (and some new shows as well). And Christmas decorations are already popping up in the parks! Why not have three celebrations at once? If you’re in the mood for some more holiday cheer, we found one of the cutest ways to count down until Christmas. [Read more…]
