food IS a theme park
The holiday season is fast approaching, and it’s time to start stocking up on all of those amazing seasonal goodies!

Now is the time to purchase things like advent calendars and other items that are likely to sell out early.
It’s that weird time of year when we’re still celebrating Halloween, but the holiday season has already started to appear in Disney World.
EPCOT
So far, we’ve seen LOADS of new holiday merchandise in Disney World, but we’ve also seen holiday decorations in both Disney’s Animal Kingdom and Disney’s Hollywood Studios. Now, EPCOT is getting in on the holiday decor action!
We’re coming to the end of the year, which means there are a lot of exciting events happening at Disney World.
EPCOT entrance
We have the holiday season, filled with special treats, over-the-top decorations at all the parks and resorts, and Mickey’s Very Merry Christmas Party. On top of that, we’ve also got two big festivals at EPCOT. First, there’s the Food & Wine Festival, which has been going on since July, but once that ends it’ll be time for the International Festival of the Holidays. Those two events are a big draw for Disney food lovers, but if you fall into that category, there’s another big offering you’ll want to check out!
This is Halloween, this is Halloween! (Or at least, close to it, anyway!)
Halloween in Disney!
We’ve been exploring all the spooky season offerings around Disney World in the past few months. We visited Mickey’s Not-So-Scary Halloween Party, shopped all the seasonal merchandise, and even tried a bunch of new treats. Now it’s time to head to EPCOT and test out another one!
We know, we know, Halloween hasn’t even happened yet. But hear us out — it’s time to start your holiday shopping!
Disney holiday merchandise from 2021
With supply chain issues and shipping delays, it’s important to get started on the holiday cheer a little early this year. And one of the best ways to ease into that spirit is with advent calendars! Last year, we shared a Disney-themed calendar from Amazon that was VERY popular, and this year, it’s back…and ON SALE.
For many Disney World fans, a margarita in Mexico is a priority on any EPCOT day!
Malumita margarita
And we recently learned that a fan-favorite marg is getting a Halloween makeover! Check out an exclusive look at the new drink here.
We are celebrating 100 years of the Walt Disney Company, almost 70 years of Disneyland, and over 50 years of Walt Disney World.
100 Years of Wonder
Since the Disney brand has been around for SO long, we’ve seen a lot of changes as the company, films, and parks have grown, adapted, and modernized. But where does all of the “old” stuff go as Disney moves forward? We found one little treasure trove in Florida that has given some new life to some of Disney’s older items.
Disney Springs may have some of the best restaurants in the world! No, we’re not exaggerating — this dining and shopping center has restaurants from some of the world’s most renowned chefs.
Morimoto Asia
From Chef Art Smith’s Homecomin‘ to Guy Fieri’s Chicken Guy to Iron Chef Masaharu Morimoto’s Morimoto Asia, you know you’re going to get some good eating in Disney Springs. But now, you have a chance to get an exclusive dining experience that will only include 12 people per night!
Well, we’re about to say goodbye to Halloween and start saying hello to the holiday season!
They’re here!
We’ve already seen the first decorations appear in Disney World, snow is on the castle in Disneyland, holiday merchandise is hitting store shelves and going up online, and we’re ready to go to our first Mickey’s Very Merry Christmas Party! If you’re ready to start celebrating at home, though, we found three things you will NEED to do the holidays right — the Disney way!
Are you booking a Disney Cruise soon? You’ve come to the right place!
The Disney Dream
Depending on where you are in the cruise planning process, you might already know that most of the food on the ship is included in the price of your stay, which means you get to eat a LOT. There are three different restaurants that rotate during your stay, and there are also specialty restaurants you can book at an extra cost. We were recently invited to cruise onboard the Disney Dream, and we’ve got a restaurant review just for you!
Our handy (and portable!) ebook guides make sure you get the best deals and can plan a vacation of a lifetime.
