food IS a theme park
There are a lot of things that probably aren’t the best use of your money when you’re at Disney World.
Main Street USA
Take balloons, for example. You can’t take them on an airplane with you when you travel home, and they are a pain to transport in a car, so you may not want to waste your money on these. But we’re not talking about balloons today. We’re talking about a popular souvenir among many guests and we’re here to tell you, you actually do NOT need it.
With a Disney World hotel closing this month, there are a lot of other things going away with it.
Star Wars Galactic Starcruiser
The Star Wars: Galactic Starcrusier hotel opened in March 2022 and offered guests a completely immersive Star Wars experience. It is now officially closing its doors on September 30th and with that, a lot of unique things will disappear from Disney World.
From September 15th through October 15th, both Disneyland Resort and Walt Disney World are celebrating Hispanic and Latin American Heritage Month.
Mirabel
We’ve already started the celebration with over 50 New Snacks coming to Disney parks. In Disney World, we got the additions of two members of the Madrigal family, Bruno and Mirabel (Mirabel has a meet-and-greet and Bruno joined the Disney Adventure Friends Cavalcade). But, the West Coast might have won this round with this NEW spooky sipper.
Disney hotels are growing and changing, and we’ve been watching them to keep up with all the updates.
Disneyland Hotel DVC tower
Disneyland Hotel is adding some Disney Vacation Club Villas to the property, and along with that change, we’ll be getting a very special addition. The Disneyland Hotel has been around since 1955 so it’s great to see it expanding for more guests.
Disney is giving another opportunity for Florida residents to give back and drive in style.
Magic Kingdom
Disney has been granting wishes alongside Make-A-Wish for more than 40 years. Disney Chairman Josh D’Amaro joined the Make-A-Wish board earlier this year and the Royal Ball during World Princess Week was held in collaboration with the Make-A-Wish. Disney is once again partnering with Make-A-Wish to raise even more money for a great cause.
It’s no secret we love our Disney snacks around here.
Mickey Waffle with Powdered Sugar
Doesn’t everyone dream of Mickey Waffles and Dole Whips? Well if you’re like us, then we just found four new items that you will love and that will celebrate your love of Disney food.
If you’ve been to Disney World even once, you probably know that rain can literally happen at any given moment.
Rainy Day at Magic Kingdom
It can rain frequently in Central Florida. And when that happens, you’ll want to know what to do. There are some places that are better than others to ride out the rain storm. Here’s a list of the places you don’t want to be caught in Disney World during a rain storm.
A new character has arrived at the Magic Kingdom and we’re telling you all about it!
Cinderella Castle
Since Disney first announced that the highly anticipated Mirabel meet and greet would be arriving in Magic Kingdom, we’ve been so excited to meet her. Now, Mirabel has officially arrived and we’re here to check out this new meet and greet!
D23, Disney’s Official Fan Club, is known for its BIG events.

Just last week Destination D23 was held in Walt Disney World, and we got a ton of news during the event. There is also the Hocus Pocus Ball they are hosting in Salem on October 7th. If those weren’t enough to make us jealous of D23 members, this next event will.
We are in the Disney World parks every single day!
Magic Kingdom
No really — every single day we have reporters in the parks so we can bring you the latest Disney news. Being in the parks this much also has the advantage of knowing which Disney souvenirs are totally worth your money. Our reporters made a list of the items they use daily.
Our handy (and portable!) ebook guides make sure you get the best deals and can plan a vacation of a lifetime.
