We’re sharing the items we won’t be buying again in Magic Kingdom to help you learn from our mistakes!
Cinderella Castle
After countless trips to Walt Disney World, including our fair share of trial-and-error purchases, our Disney expert team has learned exactly what’s worth spending money on — and what’s just not. We’ve made the mistakes so you don’t have to. Here are five things we absolutely never buy anymore in Magic Kingdom.
EPCOT’s World Showcase is one of the most unique and immersive experiences at Disney World — where else can you stroll through 11 different countries in a single afternoon?
EPCOT
From sipping frozen margaritas in Mexico to grabbing fresh baguettes in France, it’s a dream for parkgoers who love culture, food, and a little globe-trotting magic. But with all that exploring comes a few sneaky rules and logistics you’ll want to know ahead of time — especially if you’re rolling in with a stroller.
EPCOT has become a beloved destination for Disney adults. Here we can find not just nostalgia, but some world-class food, drinks, and immersive cultural experiences.
EPCOT
With its World Showcase offering everything from authentic cuisine to creative cocktails, EPCOT is often considered the most “grown-up” of the Disney parks. For many, it’s a tradition to “Drink Around the World,” sampling beverages from each pavilion. But as this trend grows, some longtime fans are noticing a problem starting right at the first stop: Mexico.
An iconic part of most Disney World vacations is watching fireworks with the ones you love.
Happily Ever After in Magic Kingdom
Magic Kingdom is the heart of Walt Disney World — where fairy tales come to life, nostalgia runs deep, and the day traditionally ends with a spectacular fireworks show lighting up the sky above Cinderella Castle. For many guests, watching the fireworks is a must-do moment, and over the years, certain “rules” have formed around the best way to experience them. But the truth is, those rules don’t work for everyone. Whether you’re trying to avoid the crowds, looking for a new perspective, or simply too tired to stick it out, there are plenty of ways to make the fireworks work for you, including breaking a few of the so-called rules.
We are getting closer to the start of EPCOT‘s most popular festival!
2024 Food and Wine Festival
The 2025 EPCOT International Food & Wine Festival is one of the most anticipated events of the year, inviting guests to eat, sip, and stroll their way around the globe from August 28 through November 22, 2025. With more culinary booths, live entertainment, and exclusive festival merchandise, this annual celebration is a must-do for food lovers and Disney fans alike. But here’s the best part—you don’t have to overspend to enjoy it.
One of the best parts of staying at a Walt Disney World hotel is the long list of exclusive perks that come with it.
Disney’s Riviera Resort
Early entry to the parks, free transportation across property, immersive theming, and that unmistakable Disney service — it all adds up to a more convenient and magical trip. Some resorts have amazing pools, fun activities, and great restaurants to choose from. Another thing they all have in common is the Rapid Refillable Mug service, but there’s one downside to this convenience.
The 2025 EPCOT International Food & Wine Festival is almost here, and Disney fans everywhere are already planning their return to the park’s most mouthwatering event of the year.
2024 Food and Wine Festival
This year’s festival runs August 28th through November 22nd. From international marketplaces to the culinary options and exclusive merch drops, this festival transforms EPCOT into a paradise for food lovers and Disney die-hards alike. Whether you’re a seasoned EPCOT foodie or a first-time visitor, this year’s event promises new flavors, fan-favorite dishes, and a few surprises that are sure to make it unforgettable. But there’s one rule we are encouraging people to follow this year.
The ’90s were a golden era for Disney, full of iconic movies, unforgettable characters, and a style that still resonates today. Who remembers the cake castle at Disney World from 1996?
