food IS a theme park
Though the Downtown Disney shopping district has begun a phased reopening, Disneyland Park, Disney California Adventure, and the Disneyland hotels have delayed their reopening and have yet to announce a reopening date.

Now, Disney has an update for guests who were hoping to visit in August.
After four months, EPCOT finally reopened today to guests!
Future World Construction
In addition to the launch of the Taste of EPCOT International Food & Wine Festival and ALL of the delicious food booths, there’s more new stuff to see at EPCOT. Oh yeah, baby, we’re talking merch!!
There’s no denying that Pop Century just might be the raddest resort in all of Walt Disney World, filled with nostalgic symbols and theming.

So, it only makes sense that while we’re staying at Pop Century on the day of Epcot and Hollywood Studios’ grand reopenings, that we spotted some super stellar, totally colorful new merch!
Walt Disney World has PLENTY of transportation options, from buses to the monorail to the Skyliner and everything in between!

But when Walt Disney World officially reopens Magic Kingdom and Animal Kingdom on July 11th and Epcot and Disney’s Hollywood Studios on July 15th, not EVERY type of vehicle will be available.
When Epcot officially reopens on July 15th, there’s going to be a brand new hybrid food festival, the Taste of Epcot International Food and Wine Festival.

We’ve FINALLY gotten menus for the 20 signature marketplaces that will be spaced out around the theme park, but we know that no festival is complete without merchandise!
We’ve been walking around all day today at the Magic Kingdom during Annual Passholder previews checking out wait times, spotting social distancing measures, and of course, riding some rides!
Magic Kingdom
And while there are plenty of rides and attractions officially open at The Most Magical Place on Earth, one of our FAVORITE rides was sadly down!
Select Walt Disney World resort hotels are open now, and the theme parks are officially reopening on July 11th and July 15th.

But just because guests can start staying at select resort hotels and enjoy the theme parks doesn’t mean EVERY Disney travel experience is going to reopen soon.
There’s a LOT we know about Walt Disney World’s plans to reopen in the coming weeks, but there’s a lot we DON’T know yet.

We know that certain Disney World hotels are opening on June 22nd, the Magic Kingdom and Animal Kingdom are reopening on July 11th, and Epcot and Disney’s Hollywood Studios are reopening on July 15th.
Disney World just made some MAJOR announcements about some of their 2020 events.
We just learned that a modified version of the Epcot Food and Wine Festival will begin when the park reopens on July 15th (without the Eat to the Beat Concert series). And, in LESS fortunate news, Disney announced that Mickey’s Not-So-Scary Halloween Party for 2020 has been canceled and H2O Glow Nights have also been canceled.
