food IS a theme park
There are so many different ways to spend your time in Disney World depending on what your priorities are.
“it’s a small world”
Rides make up a huge part of the Disney experience, but how much time do you really want them to take up during your trip? Are the longest wait times really worth it?
We got a LOT of new announcements during Destination D23 this past November!
Destination D23
Disney announced that Fantasmic! is returning to Hollywood Studios, the Festival of Fantasy Parade is coming back to Magic Kingdom, a new restaurant is coming to Future World at EPCOT, and we got an opening timeline for Guardians of the Galaxy: Cosmic Rewind! Disney also revealed that a brand NEW character cavalcade is coming to Magic Kingdom next year, and you can now see more details about the cavalcade right from your phone!
Disney has a lot of exciting and adventurous foods to try, like gator bites and food from outer space.
SO MUCH SPACE FOOD
But, sometimes you just need some comfort food, ya know? And luckily, Disney also has plenty of that, too! From corn dog nuggets to tater tots to fried chicken, it’s hard to keep up with all of the spots you can get some classic comfort food. One spot that you might not come across unless you know about it is Beaches and Cream Soda Shop at Disney’s Beach Club Resort! We haven’t had a meal at the soda shop in a hot minute, so come along with us to try some food!
Happy Holidays, DFB Readers! With Christmas just around the corner, it’s almost time to say goodbye to Festival of the Holidays and Very Merriest After Hours, and time to say hello to the Festival of the Arts!
The Holidays at Wilderness Lodge Resort
Today, we’re taking a look at what crowds were like the weekend before Christmas! With lots of people taking holiday trips to Disney World, especially around the 25th, lots of people can be expected in the parks this time of year.
The way you meet characters in Disney World has changed a LOT over the last two years!
Winnie the Pooh!
When the parks first reopened, the only way to see characters was in a cavalcade or from a distance. While we were thankful to even meet characters, it’s not the same as those 1-on-1 interactions that guests are used to. Thankfully, a modified way to meet characters has arrived in the parks and guests can now have more personalized interactions with them! On top of that, we found a surprise princess today!
Can you believe the holidays have almost come and gone? Soon the New Year will be here!
New breakfast pastry tart!
And although Disney is busy giving us loads of holiday snacks like Red Velvet Funnel Cake, a delicious Yule log, and a Coca-Cola Spiked Eggnog, things are pretty quiet as far as restaurant menus go. And all of this week’s updates are NEW foods we can’t wait to try!
There’s always a ton of construction going on at Disney World — the resort is always expanding and changing, which was always part of Walt Disney’s original intent for Disney Parks.
Tomorrowland Light & Power Co.
In the past year, though, construction has kicked into full gear — from the massive ongoing EPCOT overhaul to the TRON ride construction in Magic Kingdom to all the work being done at the Fantasmic! theater, we only expect to see even construction in the future. And now, a new permit suggests that a shop at Disney World might be getting an upgrade.
Hey there, DFB friends! We’re back with more unexpected Disney World news from the week, and this week was a bit UNUSUAL to say the least.
It was hard to see Cinderella Castle!
You may have heard that there was a FIRE at Cinderella Castle (everyone is fine, no one was hurt!) and surprisingly, that’s not the only big news of the week! Take a look at everything else unexpected that happened there.
Disney World continues to return to “normal” as many experiences return to the parks.
Indiana Jones Epic Stunt Spectacular
And today, the Indiana Jones Epic Stunt Spectacular is BACK after a 21-month hiatus! It’s time to dodge a giant boulder, catch some stunts, and see what Marion and Indy have been up to.
Seasons greetings from Walt Disney World!
Disney Enchantment has arrived in Magic Kingdom!
It’s the holiday season, which can definitely mean some big holiday crowds. We like to keep up with how lines are looking in order to see how busy it is, so here’s a look at all the average wait times in Disney World from this week.
