food IS a theme park
This week was not exactly great for two Disney World rides.
The Monorail in EPCOT
From the mystery of a missing sandwich to some big Magic Kingdom showtime changes, this week was full of unexpected surprises in Disney World! Let’s jump right into it.
When was the last time you visited Disney World?
Disney’s Hollywood Studios
If it’s been a while — or even if it hasn’t — things might look a little bit different than your last visit. There are new dining locations like Space 22o and Connections Eatery, plus brand new attractions and even newer ones being built! With so much going on, it’s important to keep up with all the big changes. That’s why we’ve put together a list of the biggest Disney World construction updates from this week!
If you haven’t noticed, things just got a LOT more colorful at Disney World.
There’s SO much new food to try!
Rainbows are everywhere as Pride Month kicks off — we’ve been busy checking out all the new merchandise, as well as eating all the new snacks. To top it off, there are a ton of NEW things to try at Disney’s Hollywood Studios, too! So what else is going on with Disney World restaurant menus right now? Let’s find out!
Disney World is good at MANY things! From the fine details to the nostalgia, and the thrills to the animation, is there ANYTHING they can’t do?!
Mickey and Minnie’s Runaway Railway
Oh, and let’s not forget about that almost trance-like influence they have over us in getting guests to spend MORE money? Genius!
Think you have your upcoming Disney World vacation completely planned out and ready to go? Think again!
EPCOT
We don’t doubt that you have some awesome planning skills, we just know that Disney can change things at the last minute and there might be some things you aren’t prepared for, like how to book Genie+, which rides are now using Genie+ instead of individual Lighting Lanes, and the showtimes for certain entertainment. You also want to pay attention to what’s CLOSED in Disney World while you’re there, so let’s take a look at what is going to be closed in Disney World next week!
Do you ever wonder HOW much time you spend waiting in line in Disney World?
There are a TON of lines you might not expect in Disney World!
It’s obviously different for everyone, depending on what you decide to do during your trip. But, you probably end up waiting in more lines than you think you will — lines to check-in to your hotel, for transportation, to scan into the parks, to check-out of stores, for quick-service food, for the bathroom, and obviously, for rides. Ride lines can be a huge time suck during your trip, so let’s take a look at the average wait times from this week in Disney World to get an idea of how much time YOU could spend waiting for your favorite attractions soon!
There is truly never a dull moment in Disney World!
Guardians of the Galaxy: Cosmic Rewind
Between reopening dates for a popular character meet and greet and stage show, to refurbishments and new EPCOT festival booths, keeping track of everything going on at Disney World can be a lot. That’s why we bring you all the latest Disney updates, including everything you need to know if you’re going to Disney World next week!
Hey, you! Yes, you! Are you looking for a recap of the latest and greatest Disney news? Want to make sure you can show off to your friends with the latest Disney knowledge? Planning a trip and worried you’ll miss something that could change your plans? We’ve got you covered!
EPCOT
Each week, we take a look at the biggest Disney news stories and share those with you, so you can be prepared for the trips coming in your future. This week was a big one! We got a Genie+ CHANGE that could impact your trip plans, news about a brand new restaurant, and more! So let’s dive into the biggest stories right here.
It’s June, which means it’s both summertime AND Pride Month in Disney World!
Pride Cheesecake Dome
If you’re visiting Disney World this June, you have the opportunity to try new summer and Pride treats, which means there’s a LOT to eat (let’s be honest though, is that any different than a usual visit to Disney World?). We tried four new treats and one drink to help you narrow down your list, although we have a feeling you may want to get all of them. Don’t worry, we won’t judge!
When it comes to snacking around Disney World, we like to think we’re experts.
Things sure do get Goofy in Disney World
We’ve tried it all — from Pineapple Lumpia at Pongu Pongu in Disney’s Animal Kingdom to the Wookie Cookie from Backlot Express in Hollywood Studios. On a recent trip to Magic Kingdom, though, we stumbled upon a dessert we hadn’t seen on the menu before — so we decided to try it out!
