Hi, there! We’re back with another DFB Video today, and we’re talking about how Disney World is a lot like its own small country!

Did you know that Disney World has its own municipal government, has a GDP larger than some entire countries, and plays some surprising tricks to manage its voting population? Kinda sounds like it’s its own country doesn’t it? We’ll give you the details in our latest DFB YouTube Video!
If you’ve paid attention while out and about on Disney World property, you’ve no doubt noticed the distinctive signs in teal, yellow, red, and purple that are used on Disney property to direct traffic to parks, resorts, Disney Springs, and more. These signs are the harbingers of fun — the visitor’s first real sign they they are ON DISNEY PROPERTY.
Purple Road Signs!
And we can’t lie: when we saw this iPhone case inspired by the purple road signs, we got a little teary. Because look: [Read more…]
Guests preparing to stay at a Walt Disney World Resort hotel for their vacation have, for five years now, had the option to choose from a variety of colors when selecting their complimentary MagicBands to wear during their trip.

So let’s get started, shall we?
Hope you’re enjoying your weekend so far! We’re back with another DFB Video this weekend, and we’re talking about Character Dining in Walt Disney World… because we’ve gone to EVERY Character Meal (so you don’t have to)!
Storybook Dining at Artist Point
There are a LOT of Character Meals offered in Walt Disney World… and they are, understandably, a HUGE draw! Pairing a meal with a chance to meet several characters without waiting in line… well, what’s not to love? As it turns out, though, it’s not that simple, because there’s a lot to consider: which characters do you (or your children) most want to meet? What kind of food and service style do you enjoy? Where are all the various character meals located? We’re talking about ALL of that — along with tips and tricks for YOUR character meal — in our latest DFB YouTube Video!
It’s not often we get to use our Hot Dog Alert, but today’s the day: Casey’s Corner in Magic Kingdom will stop selling foot-long hot dogs and monthly Hot Diggity Dogs!

Hey, there! We’re back with another DFB Video today, and we’re talking about how to avoid lines in Walt Disney World!
Slinky Dog Dash Line
Everyone knows that when you go to Disney World you’ll be waiting in LINES. It’s just part of the deal. But there are hacks to decrease your wait time and increase the fun when you do have to wait, and we’re sharing them with you in our latest DFB YouTube Video!
Yesterday was Hollywood Studios’ 30th Anniversary and guys…it was CRAZY! We reviewed SO MANY awesome treats like the Kylo Ren Cupcake and the Sorcerer’s Hat 30th Anniversary Treat that we’re still full today!
Hollywood Studios 30th Anniversary
But treats aren’t the only things that are released when Disney is celebrating something big — new merchandise is often released as well. And we KNOW that many of you waited hours in line to get your hands on limited edition 30th Anniversary merchandise yesterday, and we KNOW that a lot of it SOLD OUT. So, we thought we’d tell you about another piece of Hollywood Studios Anniversary merchandise we found!
Sure, this week delivered a huge day of celebration and fun over at Hollywood Studios for the park’s 30th Anniversary. But, let’s not forget that Disney also released a lot of new treats in Magic Kingdom, too. (View the full list here!)
