food IS a theme park
Fireworks are officially coming BACK to Disney World on July 1st!
Happily Ever After
Guests will get to enjoy Happily Ever After in Magic Kingdom and EPCOT Forever over in EPCOT, but to get into the parks and see these spectaculars, you’ll need a Park Pass! Park Passes for July 1st have been filling up quickly. But, if you’re an Annual Passholder and you haven’t gotten your Park Pass yet for July 1st, you’re in LUCK!
Disney World crowd levels have certainly changed over the past few months.
Disney’s Hollywood Studios Entrance
With changes to capacity limitations and the continued use of the Disney Park Pass theme park reservation system, we’ve been keeping a close eye on the number of people in the Disney World parks. Well, today we noticed a SURPRISING crowd level in Disney’s Hollywood Studios!
In January of 2022, Disney’s Magical Express service will be discontinued.
Disney’s Magical Express
We’ve already shared a look at some of the best ways to get from the airport to Disney World’s hotels once the service is gone, and we’ve shared news about the new service from Mears that is set to replace the Magical Express. But, today we’ve got another update for those who are planning to use Disney’s Magical Express this year, while it’s still available.
We’ve all been singing along to the incredibly catchy tune on “it’s a small world” for OVER 50 years now! Actually, “it’s a small world” opened at Disneyland in 1966, making this year its 55th anniversary.
“it’s a small world” Wristlet
Whether you’re a fan of the Disneyland attraction or simply must ride Disney World’s version every trip, you can celebrate your love for “it’s a small world” in lots of ways including by grabbing a new board game, collectible key, and even a NEW Dooney & Bourke “it’s a small world” bag. We’ve spotted the Dooney & Bourke small world series in Disneyland and Disney World, but now it’s available for anyone to snag online!
Here at DFB, we are ALL about Disney Food (seriously, that’s why it’s in our name).

We love Disney Cast Members. They are the reason for the magic.
Fantasyland Cast Members
Even while doing their jobs, they tend to find little ways to make special moments happen for guests visiting the parks. And we got to see a small piece of Cast Member magic today!
You may have noticed that Disney dropped a lot of BIG news today about their 50th Anniversary celebration, starting October 1st!
Disney has added special touches to Cinderella Castle for the 50th anniversary!
Some of what we know about this celebration is fairly standard (although still exciting), like the Cinderella Castle makeover and new outfits for the Disney characters! But a few of the announcements were kinda unexpected!
