By 2 Comments

Okay…I’m about to tell you something dangerous.

Yuletide Cheers

It’s no secret around here that we’re BIG fans of stopping by Trader Sam’s Enchanted Tiki Bar for a quick bite and a drink to sip. And with their recently added breakfast menu, they’ve opened up a whole new world (see what we did there?) of tropical paradise. BUT what you may not realize is that Trader Sam’s has a secret menu, and it’s packed with off-menu cocktails and surprise food items created by the skippers behind the bar. If you’ve ever wanted to feel like an insider at Disneyland, this is how you do it!

A NEW Disney Villain Is Coming to Galaxy’s Edge

By Leave a Comment

Disneyland’s Star Wars area is getting a massive upgrade! Galaxy’s Edge is a Star Wars-themed land on both the East and West Coasts, and they’ve been very similar. You’ll explore Black Spire Outpost on the planet of Batuu that the First Order has overtaken. You can meet Kylo Ren and his Stormtroopers, ride the Millennium Falcon with Chewbacca, and help Finn, Rey, and the Rebel Alliance take down the First Order. Both lands have been set during the sequel trilogy – until now!

Disneyland’s Galaxy’s Edge

While Galaxy’s Edge in Disney World will stay the same, the West Coast’s Disneyland area will be completely rethemed to be set during the original trilogy. This means new characters from “A New Hope,” “The Empire Strikes Back,” and “Return of the Jedi” will be roaming around the park. But how will these changes impact the characters currently in Galaxy’s Edge?

So…Why Is Disney Making a Zillion Changes to Galaxy’s Edge Right Now?

By Leave a Comment

Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge at Disneyland is about to undergo one of the biggest pivots since the land opened, and it’s happening fast.

Galaxy’s Edge

Beginning April 29th, Disney will officially expand Galaxy’s Edge’s once-strict timeline, allowing characters and storylines from multiple Star Wars eras to coexist in Batuu. That means familiar faces from the original trilogy, The Mandalorian, Ahsoka, and beyond will now appear together in the land, marking a major change from Disney’s previous insistence on keeping Galaxy’s Edge locked into a single point in the sequel trilogy timeline. So why the sudden change of heart? And why now? Let’s break down exactly what’s changing and what Disney really stands to gain from it.

CONFIRMED: Disney’s Popular ‘Star Wars’ Bar Is Closing For Longer Than We Thought

By 1 Comment

If you need a drink in Disneyland’s Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge? You have a few choices. You can always grab a Cold Brew Black Caf at Docking Bay 7, but if you want to have a drink in a real hive of scum and villainy, there’s Oga’s Cantina.

Well, things at Oga’s Cantina has been changing in Disneyland. First, Oga’s got rid of advance reservations and now only has walk-up availability (meaning you might have to stand in line to get inside). But this popular bar is going to be closing soon, and although we originally thought the closure was only going to be for about five days, it looks like it might be closed longer than that.

By Leave a Comment

Now, we’ve learned a lot from shows like The Imagineering Story about how Disneyland and its rides were created, but a brand new documentary about the creation of Disneyland, Disneyland Handcrafted, goes even deeper with “the sights, sounds, and first-hand accounts” of those who helped create this iconic OG Disney theme park.
