food IS a theme park
Disney World was FULL of surprises this week!
Magic Kingdom
Not that it surprises us that Disney was surprising…er…something like that. Anyway, this week was full of holiday announcements, character meet-and-greet news, and lots more! Check out all the news here!
Getting ready to head out on your Disney World vacation?!
Disney’s Animal Kingdom
There’s so much to see and do around the parks and beyond that it can sometimes seem difficult to keep track of it all — luckily, that’s where we come in. We’re in the parks ALL THE TIME looking for the latest news and updates, and we’re back again with the biggest construction updates from Disney World this week!
Many Disney characters have made their marks, and continue to make an impact, on Disney’s parks.
Look, it’s Stitch!
Many Disney rides have closed over the years and been replaced by others — some rides you may have even completely forgotten about! The fan-favorite Disney alien, Stitch, used to have more than just cool (but sometimes creepy) merchandise in the parks (we’re looking at you Stitch Crashes Disney Collection). In fact, the history of Stitch in Disney World is pretty wild, and we’re here to give you all the details!
There’s so much more to Disney World than just the theme parks.
Fishing is one of the many activities you can do at Disney World!
Sure, there are a lot of great attractions to ride, shows to see, nightime spectaculars to experience, and details to catch, but did you know that you can do even MORE at Disney World RIGHT NOW?
Are there any rides in Disney World that you would wait for no matter HOW long the wait time was?
Cinderella Castle
Maybe it’s Tower of Terror, Rise of the Resistance, Space Mountain, Frozen Ever After, or even Living with the Land (we see you!). Whichever ride it is, we can bet that even though you would wait in a long line, you would probably rather not. That’s when you turn to Disney Genie+ or rope dropping to help out! So, which rides do you need to have a plan for to avoid a super long wait? Let’s take a look at the average wait times from this week in Disney World to find out!
A lot goes into planning a Disney World vacation. You’ve got to consider your budget, which hotel you want to stay at, which parks to visit, what snacks to try, and so much more.

It’s hard keeping up with everything happening in Disney World!
Cinderella Castle
We just got a ton of new holiday announcements, including these unique Pixar ears, new rooms opened at the Grand Floridian Resort, Hoop-Dee-Doo Musical Revue reopened at Disney’s Fort Wilderness Resort, and there’s a new menu in EPCOT’s France pavilion! Things are constantly changing in Disney World, so let’s go over everything you need to know if you’re going to the parks next week!
It’s been a busy time in Disney World, so it’s easy to miss out on everything new that’s happening!
Stage Show
Many restaurants have reopened, a lot of entertainment has returned, a new ride debuted, and more. But, besides the really BIG things happening, there are also a lot of smaller new things that pop up in Disney World often that we like to keep you up-to-date on. So, let’s check out what’s NEW in Magic Kingdom!
What better way to round out your day in the Magic Kingdom than with some fireworks?
Enchantment at the Magic Kingdom
Disney Enchantment, the Magic Kingdom’s fireworks debuted in October in celebration of Disney World’s 50th Anniversary Celebration, replacing the previous show, Happily Ever After. Since then, the show has happened once per night (though the time varies depending on the park hours), but for a limited time, it looks like that is changing!
If you’re already thinking about Christmas and the holiday season in Disney World, you’re not alone! 🎄
Christmas Tree at the Grand Floridian
We had been patiently waiting for Disney to announce what we can expect from the holiday season this year, since 2021 brought us Disney’s Merriest After Hours event instead of Mickey’s Very Merry Christmas Party, but we now know that the Christmas party is returning, so let’s take a look at what else has been confirmed to return to Disney World this holiday season!
