food IS a theme park
Welcome back, DFB friends! We’re here with another What’s New at EPCOT!
The Land
And, we’ve got plenty of updates to share with you. So, what are you waiting for? Let’s dive right on in!
Disney Cruise Line is not fully back up and running just yet.
Disney Cruise Line Wonder Ship
It has been running staycation cruises in the United Kingdom, and Disney recently ran a test sailing from Florida, but a variety of Disney’s cruises have been canceled through part of this year. But, Disney’s looking well into the future when it comes to cruising and now we’ve got an update on Disney Cruise Line’s potential new homeport!
In the market for some new Disney merchandise?
Cinderella Castle
Shopping for Disney merchandise doesn’t have to be something you ONLY do in the Disney World theme parks. You can shop online too and have your new favorite Disney item brought right to your door! To help you pick out some of the best stuff (without breaking the bank), we’re bringing you the 8 best Disney deals on Amazon this week!
Mickey and Minnie ears are probably one of the most iconic souvenirs you can get in the Disney Parks!
Food and Wine Ears!
We’ve seen SO many different varieties, and Disney seems like they can’t stop thinking of new designs! We have those interesting (or weird) Slinky Dog ears, the super-popular Tower of Terror ears, and awesome Haunted Mansion ears. Our collections just keep growing and growing, and they’re about to get even bigger because we just found a NEW pair of ears!
Trail’s End Restaurant at Disney’s Fort Wilderness Resort and Campground has officially reopened!
The full spread!
And we’re so happy because we’re starting to see many of our favorite restaurants at Disney World reopen, including ‘Ohana at Disney’s Polynesian Village Resort, Citricos at Disney’s Grand Floridian Resort and Spa, and Tusker House Restaurant at Disney’s Animal Kingdom!
This year is the 25th anniversary of The Hunchback of Notre Dame being released!

Disney has been releasing special merchandise for the occasion, like a collectible key set, a MagicBand, and a Limited Edition Pin. We recently saw a preview for a NEW The Hunchback of Notre Dame Dooney & Bourke collection in Disney World, and now you can have the collection for yourself thanks to shopDisney!
Trader Sam’s Grog Grotto has reopened! This spot at Disney’s Polynesian Village Resort serves up whimsical cocktails and is full of the same classic hijinks as Trader Sam’s Enchanted Tiki Bar at the Disneyland Hotel!
Trader Sam’s Grog Grotto at Disney’s Polynesian Resort
Today, the Polynesian officially reopened to guests with a special Dole Whip, surprise reopenings (with loooong virtual wait times), and we got a first look in person of the Moana-themed rooms! While at the reopening of Trader Sam’s today, we found some super fun drinks that you’ll want to know about!
If you’re familiar with the Kingdom of Cute series over in Disney or remember those designer Hipster Mickey ears, you probably know about artist Jerrod Maruyama. Well now, he’s taking his cheerful artistic style to print with an enchantingly spooky new Nightmare Before Christmas book: Tim Burton’s The Nightmare Before Christmas: 13 Days of Christmas.
They meant it when they said Kingdom of CUTE
With Halloween right around the corner and our countdown to Christmas in mind, let’s take a look at a sneak preview of the new book! [Read more…]
