food IS a theme park
Star Wars fans have had so many fun ear choices over the years!
Chewbacca Ears!
We’ve seen Chewbacca Ears, Ewok Ears, light-up Lightsaber Ears, very unique Ahsoka Tano Ears, and plenty more, and now a NEW pair of Star Wars ears have arrived online!
For so many of us, Disney World is our favorite place to be.
EPCOT
And when you’re dreaming of your wedding day, many of us dream of getting married at our favorite place on Earth. But one couple recently combined their favorite place on Earth with an out-of-this-world wedding theme!
Finish this phrase: Disney’s next Chief Executive Officer (CEO) should…

Disney has had several CEOs over the years, some of whom fans have appreciated or criticized more than others. We’ve covered many of the statements and opinions from Disney’s most recent CEOs — Bob Iger and Bob Chapek (Chapek continues to serve as CEO). Chapek’s contract as CEO has been extended for a few more years, but eventually, Disney will have a new CEO that will take his place. What qualities should that new CEO have? We reached out to our readers via Facebook and they had a LOT of opinions.
Disney World’s 50th anniversary celebration is far from over, and we’ve got new Minnie ears to prove it!
New ears alert

Ah, popcorn. 🍿 The salty, savory but also sometimes sweet snack is a staple of Disney parks around the world.
Popcorn
In Disney World, it’s all about that classic buttered popcorn typically. But you’ll also want to check out the caramel popcorn in EPCOT’s Germany pavilion, the seasonal flavors that can pop up from time to time at other parks, and the make-your-own popcorn in Magic Kingdom. And if EPCOT ever starts serving up its unique popcorn flavors again, you know we’ll be throwing a popcorn party. But if you’re looking for the ultimate spot for different popcorn flavors (and AWESOME popcorn buckets), there’s one Disney park you must visit!
When you think of classic Disney rides, which ride comes to mind first?
“it’s a small world” Disneyland
Love it or hate it, “it’s a small world” is one of those classic Disney rides with an earworm of a song, and you can find it at five different Disney Parks around the world! At a few of these parks, the ride is transformed for the holidays, and we just got an inside look at this big transformation.
We’re gearing up for a lot of changes in Disney World food!
Disney Springs
The buffet is returning to Tusker House, Akershus Royal Banquet Hall is reopening, and we’ve got the holiday season kicking off soon with what’s sure to be dozens of special treats around the parks and resorts. And now, a Disney Springs restaurant has added two new items to its menu!
If you’re planning a trip with school-aged kids, things can get COMPLICATED.
Cinderella Castle
You can plan a visit during school breaks — but then you’re likely to encounter crowds or even extreme heat in the summer. The other option is to take the kids out of school during non-peak times but, depending on your school’s policy, that might not be ideal. We asked DFB readers, “Would you take your kids out of school to go to Disney World?” Here is what a few of our readers responded with!
Family-friendly content has long been a focus of The Walt Disney Company. From its digital media to its theme parks, most of the attractions, shows, movies, and experiences are created so that fans of all ages can enjoy them. But that’s not the case with one of Disney’s current projects.
ESPN Wide World of Sports
For a few years now, Disney has been playing with the idea of getting involved in sports betting. Although executives were initially hesitant to associate the Disney brand with gambling, it appears that this is no longer the case, and we may see it become part of the Disney live sports experience sooner rather than later.
