food IS a theme park
August was FULL of Disney World news with the 2026 edition of D23: The Ultimate Disney Fan Event, but that wasn’t all!
Cinderella Castle
Throughout the whole month, Disney released news regarding its Orlando theme parks, attractions, hotels, and more, and we’re here to fill you in on EVERYTHING!
The Hurly-Burly is set to open at Disney’s BoardWalk on October 1st. The space is taking over the old Jellyrolls building, and because of that, it has a lot to live up to. Fans were devastated when Jollyrolls closed, and everyone immediately started questioning what would take over the dueling pianos, which had been there for almost 30 years.

While some are excited for the Hurly-Burly and the new food and drinks it’s going to offer, others aren’t too thrilled. What does the public say about Hurly-Burly? Let’s find out!

The Diamond Horseshoe is closed!
The popular Magic Kingdom restaurant is changing up once again, as it will soon become a pop-up restaurant with a brand-new menu. We’re going to be able to make reservations soon, and although we’ve been getting lots of news on the restaurant, we were not expecting to hear this!
Disney park bags can make or break your day. The wrong one leaves you digging for sunscreen, juggling a water bottle, and wondering why you packed six different kinds of snacks but somehow forgot your phone charger. The right one keeps your essentials organized, your hands mostly free, and your park-day chaos at least somewhat contained.
We love our Loungeflys
Maybe you want your giant water bottle within reach. Maybe you want a classic Loungefly that actually matches everything. Maybe you need enough pockets to organize sunscreen, chargers, snacks, and whatever mysterious tiny object your kid hands you at 10:43 AM. So, we went looking for Disney park bags for a few very different kinds of park people. And, well, we found them all!
One of our favorite spots in Disney World is celebrating its 17th Anniversary, and it CANNOT be missed!
La Cava del Tequila
La Cava del Tequila is a fantastic spot over in EPCOT‘s Mexico Pavilion. It’s home to great drinks, and is easily one of the best hidden gems in the whole park. You’ve only got a few days to be able to snag this special drink to celebrate, so don’t wait!
When we’re looking for new Loungefly bags, we look just about everywhere, but there’s something ultra special about checking out BoxLunch. They have tons of exclusives, all officially licensed and featuring our favorite characters and movies.
