food IS a theme park
Believe it or not, the Disney parks haven’t fully returned to normal following the closures.
Under the Sea in Magic Kingdom
Slowly but surely, restaurants and meet and greets reopened — and Disney just announced that another character meet and greet is returning to Magic Kingdom!
Disney World is slowly returning to “normal.”
Belle at Enchanted Tales with Belle
Over the past several years and months, Disney has been hard at work bringing back fan favorites like the more complete version of Festival of the Lion King, the Harmony Barber Shop, Victoria and Albert’s, and more! While some things are still modified or closed, that will all be changing for one attraction soon.
Disney is about to make a MAJOR change to a classic ride that’s gonna impact Disneyland and Magic Kingdom FOREVER.
Splash Mountain
But what, exactly, is going to change, what’s staying the same, and what changes are we HOPING for in the future? Find out today — here on DFB Guide.

The 100th Anniversary celebrations are kicking off in Disneyland on January 27th, and we’ve already started to see some merchandise and more pop up in the park. And now, we know exactly what special eats and drinks will be coming to Disneyland Resort for the 100th Anniversary!
Change. It’s a powerful word — a word that could mean so many good things and bring so much happiness, or could signal the loss of something important and bring lots of disappointments. And it’s a word we’ve heard (and used) a LOT lately thanks to all of the CHANGES (there we go again!) taking place in the Disney parks and resorts.
Disney’s Grand Floridian
Within the last few years and even just the last few months, Disney’s hotels have changed in a particularly big way. We’ve seen Moana-inspired rooms open at Disney’s Polynesian Village Resort, a NEW coffee shop open at Disney’s BoardWalk Inn, and other projects announced for Disney’s future. So, what will 2023 be like at the Resort hotels? What major changes should YOU expect? We’re breaking it all down for you here.
Can you believe that in a matter of months, it’ll be spring?
Hollywood & Vine
Springtime brings larger crowds to Disney World because of spring break, and we often see new eats arriving at the parks as well. That’s the case at Hollywood & Vine, which is a restaurant in Disney’s Hollywood Studios. This spot hosts Minnie’s Seasonal Dine for lunch and dinner, which changes throughout the seasons and brings characters like Minnie, Goofy, Pluto, and more to dine with you. Now we’ve got dates for when Springtime Dine and Summertime dine will return this year!

Are you ready for the new season of The Mandalorian?
Mandalorian
The Star Wars show called The Mandalorian took the world by storm when it debuted on Disney+. Grogu (also known as Baby Yoda) has been ALL over merchandise since the show debuted and you can actually meet the iconic duo in a Disney park now! But we’re gearing up for the third season of the show with a new trailer released by Disney!
Splash Mountain is about to close in Disney World — for good.
Splash Mountain
If you want to ride the classic attraction before it’s gone, you need to make sure you’re in Magic Kingdom before January 22nd. But, for guests visiting Magic Kingdom today — it wasn’t so easy to visit the Briar Patch and ride Splash Mountain.
