food IS a theme park
Disney World was FULL of surprises this week!
Magic Kingdom
Not that it surprises us that Disney was surprising…er…something like that. Anyway, this week was full of holiday announcements, character meet-and-greet news, and lots more! Check out all the news here!
So who’s celebrating 626 Day? In case you don’t know about 626 day, it’s the day we celebrate Experiment 626, aka Stitch — June 26th!
Happy 626 Day, Stitch!
Okay, we don’t really need a reason to celebrate Stitch because he’s lovable year-round! We’re celebrating by reflecting on the wild history of Stitch in Disney World, checking out a new Harveys Stitch collection, and eating some Stitch-inspired snacks (yes, that means MORE BLUE FOOD, y’all). So we’re picking up a Stitch snack that got an upgrade from last year!
Change is inevitable, even in Disney World.
Cheese and fries at Backlot Express!
Over the past two years, we’ve seen a LOT of change: we’ve experienced new rides, we’ve eaten a lot of new foods (the kind of change we’re total fans of), and we’ve watched supply issues cause problems across the resort. We’ve also seen price increases on merchandise and at restaurants, and there’s been more of that this week, so let’s get on with the restaurant menu updates!
Getting ready to head out on your Disney World vacation?!
Disney’s Animal Kingdom
There’s so much to see and do around the parks and beyond that it can sometimes seem difficult to keep track of it all — luckily, that’s where we come in. We’re in the parks ALL THE TIME looking for the latest news and updates, and we’re back again with the biggest construction updates from Disney World this week!
Disneyland is wild, y’all!
Disneyland!
But what else would you expect from the place that gave us Pickle Corn Dogs? Or where you can literally eat INSIDE a Disneyland attraction? Or meet Marvel superheroes (and villains) on their own turf? How could we not love it? So what’s been happening with Disneyland lately? Let’s find out!
Staying in a Disney World hotel means you’re getting so much more than a place to sleep.
Disney’s Grand Floridian Resort & Spa
You’re getting fun Disney-themed activities (including many you might not even know about), Disney food (which you KNOW we love), Disney theming, Disney shopping, and more! So what’s been going on with Disney World hotels recently? Let’s find out!
Slowly but surely, our favorite entertainment is coming back to Disney World!
Mickey and Minnie at Adventurers Outpost
From the parades to the stage shows, we’ve been excited whenever we’ve seen another Disney World performance return to the parks. We recently saw the reopening of the Hoop-Dee-Doo Musical Revue and the revamped version of Animal Kingdom’s Finding Nemo musical, Finding Nemo: The Big Blue… and Beyond! We noticed showtimes for another Animal Kingdom show!
There’s so much more to Disney World than just the theme parks.
Fishing is one of the many activities you can do at Disney World!
Sure, there are a lot of great attractions to ride, shows to see, nightime spectaculars to experience, and details to catch, but did you know that you can do even MORE at Disney World RIGHT NOW?
One of Hollywood Studios’ most iconic rides is the Tower of Terror!
Tower of Terror
Recently, this ride has seen some super high wait times. 150 minute waits for this ride are way more common than we want them to be. Apart from summer crowds, another reason the waits have been so high is because only half of the ride is working!
Everything is about to turn up STITCH! That’s right, 626 Day is coming, and we’ve celebrated in the past with some fun Stitch snacks.
Look, it’s Stitch!
This year, we already know about a fun screening of Lilo & Stitch hosted by D23 (where everyone gets a Dole Whip!!!) and we plan on hanging out with the blue alien as much as we can over in Tomorrowland where he meets guests. But if you can’t make it to the parks or the screening, there’s another way to celebrate Stitch — with NFTs.
