food IS a theme park
Disney World is slowly returning to pre-COVID operations.
Cinderella Castle
We’re seeing restaurants and hotels reopening, health and safety measures shifting, and suspended events returning. But not everything is as it was before just yet! There are still quite a few things that haven’t returned to Disney World since the extended closure last year.
Hello, everyone!
We’re back at Animal Kingdom!
We’ve been visiting Disney’s Animal Kingdom to see what’s been going on lately, at least since we were last there. And we’ve got a few updates for you. So here’s what’s new at Animal Kingdom!
We’ve said it before and we’ll say it again, it’s a pretty good time to be a Star Wars fan!
Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge
We recently celebrated May the 4th with all kinds of cool items, tons of new Star Wars series are coming to Disney+ in the future, Rey’s lightsaber hilt is now available in Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge, AND the Star Wars Hotel is set to open next year! If you’re planning to fill 2022 with all kinds of Star Wars fun, including a trip to Star Wars Celebration Anaheim, then there’s a big update you need to know about!
Do you consider yourself a Disney key collector?
Collectible Key
If so, it seems like Disney’s always rollin’ out new options for ya! We’ve recently seen Star Wars, rainbow, and eco-friendly designs. But if you just can’t decide which one you wanna grab — or maybe you just want a little mystery! — then we’ve got just the thing for you.
Flying on the Millennium Falcon: Smugglers Run is a thrilling experience for many Star Wars fans!
Millennium Falcon
And now you can have a similar experience at home thanks to a new feature on the Portal from Facebook!
Disney World has made some HUGE changes over the past several months, and each day seems to bring a new update.
Social Distancing Reminder
We’ve already seen Disney World beginning to load riders on every row of many attractions, and Disney has officially announced it will be phasing out temperature checks at the parks soon. Some popular live entertainment is coming back to the parks, and quite a few other things are returning to “normal.” Now, we’ve got a BIG update from Disney World when it comes to physical distancing.
Even though it’s only May, it’s time to gear up for the Halloween season!
We’re halfway to pumpkin season!
In honor of Halfway to Halloween, we got a lot more information about what this fall is going to look like for Halloween in Disney World, and that includes a brand-new celebration called Disney After Hours Boo Bash! This After Hours event will be replacing Mickey’s Not-So-Scary Halloween Party this year and offering some of the same experiences, but with some major differences. We got some seriously mixed responses from our readers about these changes, and we’re excited to share their thoughts with you!
It’s almost June, which means Disney is gearing up for Pride Month!
Rainbow Collection
Disney tends to celebrate Pride Month each year with a special Rainbow collection, which we’ve already seen debut. As you may guess, you can snag MagicBands, collectible keys, ears, and so much more. But you can snag a more unique Pride souvenir, too…and you’ll find it tucked away in Galaxy’s Edge in Disney’s Hollywood Studios.
If you’re planning a Disney World trip, chances are, you’re shelling out some serious cash.
Nothing says “vacation” like a Castle view!
There are a lot of ways to budget, but what if you do want to splurge? It’s your vacation after all. We’re talking about the best ways to spend some extra money — $1000 to be exact.
Looking for the perfect side dish or the best between-meal snack? May we suggest: the humble potato?
Tots and plastic cheese…the perfect combination.
There are so many ways to eat them, whether it’s in chip, french fry, or tater tot form! And if you love those crispy little tater tots, there are a BUNCH of places you can find them at Disney World — we’re sharing a full list here on DFB today.
