food IS a theme park
We have HUGE news from EPCOT today!
Imagination Pavilion
It was announced yesterday at Destination D23 that the highly anticipated Figment meet and greet would be arriving in EPCOT today, and we’re here to check it out!
If you’re a Disney fan, chances are you have a favorite character — whether they’re from your favorite classic film or maybe even your favorite ride in the parks!
Monorail in EPCOT
Some people take their love of Disney characters very seriously (Hi, it’s us, we’re “people.”) and we’ve seen some pretty chaotic moments in Disney World because of it. Remember the Figment popcorn bucket fiasco from the 2022 EPCOT Festival of the Arts? Folks queued up in hours-long lines to snag the little guy — and now Figment is BACK causing chaos again.
WARNING! Several rides and restaurants are going to be CLOSED in Disney World next week.
Magic Kingdom’s Parking Entrance
If you’re planning a trip to the parks soon, you’ll want to know what’s NOT available for you to do during that vacation. To help you plan, let’s take a look at what will be closed from September 10th through the 16th so that you’re prepared for your next trip.
It’s time to say “Au revoir” to Soarin’ Around the World!
The Land Pavilion
During the Destination D23 event at Disney World, we got to hear all about EPCOT and the design and ideas behind the transformation of the park during the EPCOT: Always in a State of Becoming panel. But in the middle of the panel, Disney dropped some EXCITING news!
Well, y’all — whew! It has been QUITE the weekend.
Chairman, Disney Parks, Experiences and Products Josh D’Amaro
Destination D23, a HUGE Disney fan event, is underway at Disney’s Contemporary Resort at Disney World, and Disney started the event off by announcing a TON of new things coming to Disney Parks, Disney Cruise Line, and more. If you weren’t able to keep up with all those announcements, though — don’t worry, we’ve got your back. Here’s EVERYTHING Disney announced.
YES, we know it’s September, but Disney has started releasing Christmas merchandise, so we’re gonna talk about it!
Magic Kingdom during the holidays
You may think September is too early to buy anything for the holidays, but prices often go up as the holidays approach and many items go out of stock, so if there’s something you really want for one of the lowest prices you’ll find it before the holiday is OVER (when everything goes majorly on sale), now is the time. So grab these new Disney holiday inflatables ASAP!
Disney’s dropped a new way to show off your Destination D23 excitement, and the best part is it’s FREE!

We’ve got some HUGE news about the future of D23!
Hey, Figment!
We’re reporting LIVE from the biggest Disney fan event of the year, Destination D23 in Disney World, and we learned a LOT about what’s to come. So far, we’ve been soaking in every moment at this year’s event, but it seems like Disney is already looking forward to the NEXT D23 celebration.
Many Disney fans would say that getting to Magic Kingdom is one of the hardest transportation challenges.
Boarding the Monorail at the Transportation & Ticket Center
Why is that, you ask? Well, you can’t park, take a bus, ferryboat, monorail, or a rideshare straight to Magic Kingdom, you have to pass through the TTC (Transportation & Ticket Center). Needless to say, we go to the TTC a lot, and we noticed a small change today that we LOVE.
Disney Cruise Line just continues to expand its fleet.

In 2022, the Disney Wish began setting sail (and we even had a chance to check it out). In 2024, the Disney Treasure will be taking its maiden voyage. But Disney isn’t stopping there: the company just announced the name of yet ANOTHER new ship that will be added to its fleet.
