food IS a theme park
Welcome back, DFB friends! We’re here with another What’s New at EPCOT and Disney’s Hollywood Studios!
Hollywood Studios
And, we’ve got plenty of merchandise, food, entertainment, and construction to share with you, so let’s dive right on in!
While we have loved visiting the World Showcase’s restaurants and riding Test Track again, EPCOT has a pretty big maze of construction in the park right now.

Although we’ve been giving you a look at everything we find during our park walks (even pumpkin spice goodies and HUGE discounts), it looks like Disney World could be moving forward with one of its new pieces of entertainment in EPCOT!

As part of their Happily Ever After Hours series, we’ve learned how to make a Gurrtiki last spring ( it’s an homage in a glass to Disney Legend Bob Gurr!). Now a brand new roster of education talks has just been announced for the late half of August and into September.
Disney’s live-action remake of Mulan finally is officially coming out Friday, September 4th, on Disney+!

We’ve been watching all the lastest Mulan trailers and behind-the-scenes featurettes to get ready to go head-to-head with the Huns. But if you’re headed to Disney’s Hollywood Studios anytime soon, there’s a brand new Mulan experience you won’t want to miss!
It seems things are constantly changing in Walt Disney World.

Just yesterday, we announced that the new Cirque du Soleil show coming to Disney Springs had been delayed, and less than 24 hours later, we’ve discovered that the show has been delayed once again!
Quite some time ago, it was announced that a new Disney themed Cirque du Soleil show would be coming exclusively to Disney Springs.

Over the past few months, we’ve gotten more details about the new show, “Drawn to Life,” and even got a behind the scenes peek at what was to come. It looks like guests wanting to see this show, however, may have to wait just a little bit longer.
After multiple delays for its theatrical debut, Disney’s live action remake of Mulan finally has an official release date! It’s coming out Friday, September 4th, on Disney+!

Between all of the new Mulan merch we’ve spotted around Walt Disney World and the brand-new movie trailer that debuted earlier this week, we thought we couldn’t get any more hyped for this new movie…
Between the dog days of summer and the bustling back-to-school season, we’re EXHAUSTED, y’all. And that means we’re spending a lot of time lounging around the house and watching Disney+.

While we’re still OBSESSED with watching and rewatching Hamilton and are LOL-ing at the new episodes of Muppets Now, we’re like Ariel… We want MORE!
Projects like TRON Lightcycle Run, Harmonious, the PLAY! Pavilion, and more have officially been in the works at Walt Disney World, after being halted during the closure.

But those aren’t the only major projects Disney is working on again. Disney has also been moving ahead with their plans for the Star Wars: Galactic Starcruiser hotel.
Disney World is pushing forward with lots of upcoming projects! Cinderella Castle is now pink (we’re still not over it!) and the moat is FINALLY filled again.

But one of the biggest projects we’ve been checking up on is TRON Lightcycle Run, which is set to debut in Magic Kingdom next year.
