food IS a theme park
Hello to all our DFB Friends!
Welcome to the Twilight Zone…
We spent a day at Hollywood Studios, living the best Hollywood life, getting our Star Wars on, and hitting up all the shops to see if we could spot anything new. So get ready for some updates!
If you’re going to get a glow up, you might as well do it with Disney-inspired makeup, right? At least that’s what we think!
Bambi Topiaries
And the Disney and Colourpop collaborations are always so much fun — we loved the fun colors of the Mulan palettes, as well as the wickedly delightful hues of the Hocus Pocus collection! So yeah, we were pumped to hear that a new Bambi makeup collection was on the way!
Disneyland remains closed due to the global pandemic.
Disneyland’s Sleeping Beauty Castle
Downtown Disney and Buena Vista Street are currently open, and Disney California Adventure is planning to reopen for a limited-time ticketed event in March. However, due to California state mandates, Disneyland Resort as a whole remains closed. But we’ve been following the progress of a bill that may allow the parks to reopen sooner than planned.
If you’re looking a completely immersive Star Wars experience where you can truly live out your own Star Wars story, it sounds like Star Wars: Galactic Starcruiser (a.k.a. the Star Wars hotel that’s not really a hotel) might just be the thing for you.

The hotel is currently set to open in 2021 and we’ve been keeping a close eye on all of the construction going on there. But, today a MAJOR new development has been spotted related to the Star Wars hotel. Anyone out there want to work in space?
The global health crisis continues to affect the travel industry.

Adventures by Disney has been modifying its policies and schedule in waves over the past year. The service had to update its policies to better assist guests, and they have suspended a lot of trips. Most recently, trips through April were canceled and now Adventures by Disney has issued an update.
We’ve got news for Toy Story 4 fans!
Forky Hairbrush
If you DO love that film, then you probably fell in love with a small but AMAZING character, Forky! We’ve seen some wild and wonderful Forky merch like the Forky Shoulder Plush, the Forky Loungefly Backpack, and, of course, our beloved Forky Hairbrush. Now, there’s MORE Forky merch coming soon.
We’re SO excited for the start of EPCOT International Flower & Garden Festival next month!
Flower and Garden Festival
We got lots of Flower and Garden news this morning which is giving us total springtime feels. Did you catch that all the booth menus were announced? AND the Garden Graze Food Tour is returning? Well, there’s one little piece of news that’s a VERY BIG DEAL too — and it has to do with our friend the Orange Bird.
There’s just something special about Pixar movies — they always make us laugh, cry, and feel ALL the emotions! (Soul, we’re looking at you!)

Last year, we learned about Luca, a new Pixar film set to release this year. And just a few days ago, we saw a new poster for the film! But it wasn’t until today until we got a good idea of what the movie’s story is about — and it’s got some surprises!
EPCOT’s Flower and Garden Festival begins next week, and we’re getting very excited!
Belle and Beast topiaries
We’ve been checking out the list of all the activities, deciding on our list of must-dos. Many of the topiaries and floral decorations have already shown up in the park, and we’ve been admiring them and sharing photos with all of you. This morning, we finally got some additional details on the festival as the food booth menus dropped. On top of the menu announcement, Disney also shared details regarding the return of EPCOT concerts.
Flowers as far as the eye can see, Disney character topiaries, and new snacks and treats? It’s just about time for the 2021 EPCOT International Flower and Garden Festival!
2020 Epcot Flower and Garden
The annual spring-time festival will be sprouting at EPCOT from March 3rd – July 5th, 2021. And, while we’ve given you a sneak peek at the entertainment and flower-y creations coming to the festival this year, we’ve finally got all the details on the eats!
Our handy (and portable!) ebook guides make sure you get the best deals and can plan a vacation of a lifetime.
