There’s quite a bit of construction going on in Disney World these days.
From new lands being built (like Villains Land in Magic Kingdom!) to hotel refurbishments (like the room updates happening at Pop Century), there are plenty of projects to keep an eye on. And now, a popular gift shop is getting a refresh at Disney’s Polynesian Village Resort.
If you’re not using early entry at Epic Universe, you’re leaving time (and ride count) on the table.
Universal hotel guests get into Epic Universe a full hour before the rest of the crowd. That’s twice as much early access as Disney’s 30-minute head start—and yes, it makes a major difference. After testing out a bunch of early entry tricks over multiple visits, I’ve locked in my favorite hacks that genuinely made my day smoother, cooler, and way more productive. Here are five early entry moves that I swear by—and think you should try too.
We are getting closer and closer to Test Track opening in EPCOT this summer!
Disney released new behind-the-scenes pictures, and this makes us want to run to the queue and see the newly reimagined ride for ourselves.
Yes, we may sound like a broken record, but the shoes you wear to Disney World MATTER. Wearing the wrong shoes could literally make you miserable, and no one wants to be miserable in Disney World, right?
Here’s the deal…you’re going to do a lot of walking, probably more walking than you’re used to. Having the right pair of shoes means the difference between walking joyfully around Disney World or limping in complete misery about the parks. Yep, we’ve been there. In the summer, you also have to think about the heat. You’re going to want shoes that are light and give you feet room to breathe. Well, you’re in luck — because we’ve found the perfect summer shoes for you to wear in Disney World — and they’re all under $40.
Animal Kingdom is changing a lot these days.

Tree of Life
Judy Hopps and Nick Wilde are getting ready to move in, and the dinosaurs’ extinction is imminent. While we sadly await the official goodbye to DinoLand, we were lucky enough to dig up a new treat in the land! Let’s see if it’s worth excavating.
Have you ever heard of Dapper Days?

@cherylthrift and @gretchensarah at Dapper Days!
It’s an unofficial event where Disney guests dress to impress! This event happens twice a year in Disney World and Disneyland. We finally know when we need to dust off our parasols and heels for the next event, and we’ve got all of the details right here.
When you think of Disney World, we bet the first thing that comes to mind is Magic Kingdom.
Magic Kingdom WAS the first park in Disney World, after all, and it remains the most iconic. You can’t think of Disney World without Cinderella Castle, after all. Magic Kingdom is also home to a lot of classic attractions, so if you’re visiting Disney World for the first time, Magic Kingdom is probably the park you have the highest expectations for. BEFORE you go to Magic Kingdom, though, we want to make sure you keep those expectations in check.
