food IS a theme park
We’re back in Hollywood! Well, Disney’s Hollywood Studios, which is pretty much the next best thing.
Hooray for Hollywood!
And we’ve got a few updates from here to share with you, so let’s get started!
On the hunt for some new ears?
Hollywood Studios
Well, you’re in luck! We’ve seen lots of rainbow merch debut in Disney World recently, from MagicBands to collectible keys to ear hats. But if you want even MORE color, boy have we found the pair of ears for you.
If you’re planning on visiting Disney World this summer, specifically in July, the time to book your Park Pass reservations is NOW!
Will You Be Visiting Magic Kingdom?
Earlier this year, we saw a ton of Park Pass reservations filling up for parts of this year. Later, more became available. We especially saw more Park Passes become available following Disney’s announcement that they would be increasing capacity. Slowly, however, things started to fill up again. But now more Park Passes have become available!
UPDATE: The following day, May 21st, Rise of the Resistance was up and running as usual.
Star Wars: Rise of the Resistance is one of the newest rides in Disney World, but it can also be one of the toughest to get on.
Star Wars: Rise of the Resistance
To get on Rise of the Resistance, you’ll need to join a boarding group which can be difficult enough on its own. But, aside from getting a Boarding Group, technical issues and other problems can arise (just as they do with any other Disney ride) that cause Rise of the Resistance to close temporarily. And it looks like today is one of those days, as Rise of the Resistance is temporarily closed in Disney World.
A LOT has changed in Disney World lately!
Millennium Falcon
On Friday, Disney announced that face masks would no longer be required in outdoor areas (with a few exceptions). We’ve seen plexiglass start to disappear on certain attractions, and some shows have reduced physical distancing, but now one of the most popular rides in all of Disney World is seeing some changes!
We love visiting Batuu at Disney’s Hollywood Studios if only to see what cool new Star Wars merchandise ends up there.
Star Wars plushes!
And we’ve seen some VERY cool stuff, including Chewbacca socks, a Droid Depot backpack, and some pretty sweet lightsabers! But today, we spotted some brand new items that you might just want to give a big hug!
There are quite a few different forms of transportation you can use to get around Disney World including Disney buses, boats, the monorail, and one of Disney’s latest forms of transportation — the Skyliner.
Time for a Trip on the Skyliner?
Recently, the Skyliner’s operating hours were adjusted for one day, and now we’ve got some news about an upcoming Skyliner CLOSURE that you need to know about.
Socks. They are typically a solid gift to give to friends, family members, co-workers, perfect strangers, etc. Practically everyone wears and needs socks (unless you’re a barefoot/sandals kind of person, which is totally fair).
Disney Cat Socks
Sometimes you’ll find cute socks or ones with a unique pattern. But otherwise, they’re usually just…socks. They’re comfy, useful, and sometimes fun in terms of their design, but not really functional other than as socks (or cleaning rags). But what if we told you your socks could do SO MUCH MORE?!
Welcome back, DFB friends! We’re here with another What’s New at Disney’s Hollywood Studios!
