The lawsuit is seeking to block the agency’s early review of ABC licenses. The FCC has said that if Disney wins this suit, it would “prevent the commission from analyzing evidence in its ongoing investigation.” They also wrote it would impact the agency’s “efforts to investigate and resolve serious allegations that Disney has engaged in unlawful discrimination.”
I’m taking my toddler on our first family vacation to Disney World, and my to-do list is RIDICULOUS.
Magic Kingdom at Disney World
When you go from traveling to Disney World as DINKs (double income, no kids) on a regular basis to traveling with a small child, you don’t realize how much more complex prepping for your vacation will be. My preparations actually began weeks ahead of the trip, and the list includes quite a few tasks that surprised me. So here are some things you might need to do as well if you’re planning on taking your little ones to Disney!
We might be obsessed with Disney Parks and go to Disney World and Disneyland almost every day, but we love other theme parks, too! We’ve recently spent time at Dollywood (which we loved), as well as Universal Kids Resort. We also visit Universal Orlando quite a bit (and we’re obsessed with Epic Universe).

Well, one of the most popular parks in the U.S. is Hersheypark (and who can’t love a theme park based around a chocolate company?). However, if you’ll be visiting Hersheypark soon, we’ve got a warning: a popular ride will be permanently closing there soon.
Changes are inevitable in Disney World, and restaurants are no exception to that because one restaurant in EPCOT closes in just a few days!
Spaceship Earth
If you’re planning a trip to EPCOT anytime soon, make sure to take note of this restaurant closure because you don’t want to be met with any surprises during your vacation!
When it comes to dining in Disney World, it’s no secret that some of the best spots are located at the hotels!
Mickey waffle with chicken? Yes, please!
From amazing pool bars to fine dining table-service restaurants, the Disney World hotels offer some delicious dining options that are even worth leaving the parks for. Now, one of our favorite table-service spots might finally reopen after a months-long closure. Here’s everything we know!
Hollywood Studios has so many great rides and attractions between its lands. There are so many must-dos, like Mickey and Minnie’s Runaway Railway, Rock ‘n’ Roller Coaster Starring The Muppets, Rise of the Resistance, Millennium Falcon: Smugglers Run… and that’s not even half of them!
Hollywood Studios
But when we’ve gone to Hollywood Studios lately, one of our favorites has always been closed. An ultra-popular roller coaster on our must-do list has been closed for a few days, and Disney hasn’t said anything about it!
Yet another refurbishment is coming to Disney World soon, and it’s going to affect where you can grab one of our favorite snacks in all of the resort.
Mickey Beignets at Disney’s Port Orleans Resort
Disney’s Port Orleans Resort — French Quarter is known for many things, but the delicious beignets at Scat Cat’s Club are one of the biggest ones. If you’re a big fan of this fluffy, delightful snack, you need to know that where you can snag them will be CHANGING for the coming few months. Don’t worry, you won’t have to go far, but it will change the flow of things!
Disney merchandise fans, there’s something you need to know that’s coming soon!

Disney World is getting ready to celebrate its 55th Anniversary next month, and to celebrate, Disney is getting ready to drop tons of new merchandise. We just got a sneak peek at a few of the new merchandise items getting ready to hit shelves, and we’ve got a feeling this new collection will be a big hit.
At August’s 2026 D23 Ultimate Fan Event, Disney released a slew of information on multiple in-progress and planned theme park projects, including Piston Peak, Monstropolis, Tropical Americas, Villains Land, Disneyland’s Tomorrowland, the return of Dreamfinder to EPCOT, and more.

However, during the same period, Disney also filed some patents that may point to future projects beyond even everything that’s under construction now!
