food IS a theme park
Did you know that it costs extra money to go between the theme parks in Disney World? Well, it does. It’s known as park hopping and is a ticket add-on.
EPCOT Monorail
With Park Hopper tickets costing more than regular tickets (some single-day tickets are over $220), is this upcharge really worth it? We asked our readers to find out what they think.
Here at DFB, we’ve been doing our best to keep up-to-date on all the latest Disney holiday merch…and there is a LOT of it!
Discovery Trading Company Holiday Merchandise Sale
With holiday pin sets, popcorn buckets, and everything in-between, there’s Disney holiday merch for nearly every taste. We’ve even spotted some excellent holiday merchandise sales in Disney World (Even though the season isn’t over yet!). And today, we found a really fun item on Amazon — this Funko Pop! Disney Holiday Collector’s Box!
What better way to celebrate the holiday season than by decorating your Christmas tree with Disney ornaments?!
Ornaments in Disney World
We recently spotted a really cool collection of Christmas ornaments in the parks — designed to look like iconic Disney buildings! Yesterday, we noticed several of the collection had appeared online, but they were missing a very important landmark. Now, the recreation of the popular attraction has arrived on shopDisney…
It’s been an INCREDIBLE year for Minnie Mouse collectibles at Disney World! From Dumbo and Big Thunder Mountain to the one and only Haunted Mansion, the Minnie Mouse: The Main Attraction merch has been a SMASHING success!
Minnie Mouse: The Main Attraction Big Thunder Mountain
Now it’s time for the grand finale, and December’s collection is fittingly themed with fireworks and nighttime spectaculars!
EPCOT’s Festival of the Holidays is in full swing, but there’s one BIG thing we’re missing this year: The Candlelight Processional!

When we heard that the processional wouldn’t be happening, we were obviously bummed, but we definitely understand how it would be difficult to recreate with the current safety guidelines. Thankfully, Disney gave us a recorded version to watch at home! But now, we’ve got even more good news for fans of this show, because you can listen to the soundtrack online!
This holiday season, nothing says “You’re the Minnie to my Mickey” quite like jewelry that costs nearly as much as an Annual Pass to Disney World!
Uptown Jewelers
If you’ve got money to burn, and you’re shopping for gifts for someone who is REALLY on the nice list, then we found the perfect earrings for you!
No matter what galaxy we’re on, we like our coffee as strong as the Force.
Star Wars Hoodie Pullover
So we can’t think of a better way to kickstart our day than with a cup of coffee in a collectible Star Wars mug from Starbucks!
Earlier today, we shared that Disney was releasing a new line of Wishables to celebrate 40 years of partnership with the Make-A-Wish Foundation.

Disney’s been celebrating this monumental anniversary in several ways: with a new trivia game on Play Disney Parks, a new short film, and a new line of merchandise. We can celebrate even more with these adorable mini plushes based on Disney’s Aladdin, and now guests can buy them in the parks!
In our time reporting on Disney merchandise, we’ve seen some pretty wild things!
Cinderella Castle at Crystal Arts
There was the model of Cinderella Castle that costs as much as a new car, some VERY expensive designer ears, and some definitely pricey Disney jewelry. If you have a desire to spend the big bucks on Disney souvenirs, then there’s certainly a way for you to do that! But now, we’ve got another item to add to the list…a crystal paperweight!
For over 40 years, Disney has partnered with Make-A-Wish to help dreams come true for children with critical illnesses. Recently, they’ve been celebrating the anniversary of this partnership by releasing the Wishes Come True Blue collection of merchandise and a new short film!
Wishes Come True Blue Ears
Just a few days ago, Disney also released a special Make-A-Wish version of Disney Parks Trivia on the Play Disney Parks app to commemorate some of the best moments of this partnership. Today, Disney has released some new merchandise, and 100% of the purchase price will be donated to Make-A-Wish!
