food IS a theme park
We’re really exposing the DFB team here today!
Where’s the crowd?
Because these are the things that we ALWAYS do in Disney World – ranging from solid pro-planning advice to…some honestly embarrassing confessions.
We still can’t believe how fast the year has gone by! The holidays are just around the corner, which means big changes are coming to Disney World, with MAJOR ones coming to EPCOT.
EPCOT
We are still enjoying eating and drinking everything that EPCOT’s Food and Wine Festival has to offer, but the clock is ticking, and the festival is almost over. Once it ends, EPCOT will enter a very short period with no festival, before the park gets its final change of the year. So, what can we expect?
2026 has already brought major changes to Disney World. Rides have closed and been replaced, construction has dominated the landscape, and we even learned that a new Yeti is FINALLY on the way to Expedition Everest.
BoardWalk
Now, with the end of the year in sight, two more permanent closures have hit the “Most Magical Place on Earth” before the calendar turns to 2027. Let’s take a look at the places you unfortunately won’t ever be able to experience again.
It’s been more than six months since Bob Iger stepped down as Walt Disney Company CEO, a job he held for nearly two decades. Though this isn’t the first time Iger has stepped down as CEO, it does seem like this time, it’s actually going to stick.

Iger had been with Disney since 1996, when ABC was acquired by the House of Mouse, and he was instrumental in much of the company’s growth and various acquisitions throughout his tenure. In a new interview with ABC News’ Robin Roberts, Iger shed some light on his newly retired — if you can even call it that — life and his legacy at Disney.
When it comes to dining at Disneyland, there are so many different options across both of the parks. Everything from quick and easy to upscale and luxurious, you’ll be able to find on your visit.

We recently stopped by Lamplight Lounge on Pixar Pier at Disney California Adventure to check out the menu, and now we’re bringing you our FULL review. Is it worth a stop on your next trip to the Happiest Place on Earth? It’s time to find out!
There is nothing worse than getting to your Disney World hotel after a long day of travel, only to realize that your room is in the BACK of the resort because you forgot to request the location you wanted. BUT Disney might have actually made it way easier to submit these hotel requests.
Disney’s Polynesian Village Resort
When you are staying at a Disney World hotel, you’ve always been able to contact Disney to make certain requests, but it looks as though that whole process just got way simpler.
Something new has popped up at Animal Kingdom, and it’s the cutest thing in the world!

Ever since Bluey’s Wild World opened, all of our visits to Animal Kingdom have included us going to Jumping Junction to check out the wallabies and kangaroos. Well, it looks like we’re going to be visiting it twice as much because a new baby wallaby joey has just appeared, and we can’t stop looking at her!

When it comes to reboots and remakes of old movies and shows, fans are divided. Some like them, while others wish original content would be made instead. Regardless, they just keep coming!

The beloved musical dramedy series, Glee, is officially coming back. After premiering on Fox in 2009, the show went on for six seasons before concluding in 2015. Well, it looks like the show isn’t over quite yet, as the reboot has been greenlit and will be available on Disney+ and Hulu.
