food IS a theme park

Stitch
Disney recently announced that Stitch will be the star of the new monthly merchandise collection coming in 2021. But if you’re ready to snag some adorable Stitch merch NOW, we found a new Loungefly bag that could be right up your alley!
Cast Members from Disneyland Paris are helping spread holiday cheer to those in need!

Disneyland Paris is closed through the holiday season, but that hasn’t stopped Cast Members from making magic!
Last week, we noticed that Slinky Dog Dash in Disney’s Hollywood Studios changed its loading procedure to begin seating guests in every row.
Frozen Ever After
And just a few days before that, we noticed that Rock ‘n’ Roller Coaster was doing the same. We’ve also seen the addition of plexiglass barriers between rows on more popular rides, such as Mickey & Minnie’s Runaway Railway and Rise of the Resistance, with those rides also now loading guests in every row.
It’s almost time to kiss 2020 goodbye and ring in a brand new year!
2021 Disney World Magnet
We’ve already been celebrating with loads of 2021 merchandise that we’ve seen in both Disney World and Disneyland Resort. And there are even some modified ways you can celebrate the New Year if you’re at a Disney World hotel on New Year’s Eve!
A you ready for a whole NEW way to get to Disney World?

We had our fingers crossed that the rumors of a high-speed rail station at Disney World were true, so we were excited when Brightline announced they had reached an agreement to build just that. And now we know WHEN we might be riding the rails right to Disney!
If you’re anything like us, you have been EAGERLY waiting for Gideon’s Bakehouse to open their location at Walt Disney World’s shopping and dining district, Disney Springs!
Gideon’s Bakehouse
And after a week or so of slowly sharing their new location menu, Gideon’s has LANDED at Disney Springs today for their opening!
You just KNOW we couldn’t help but make our way there and get our cookie on. And we’re gonna share the good, the bad, and the HONEST with you about our full reviews today!
New Disney World restaurants are a pretty big deal (as are new spots to get some sweet, sweet air conditioning in the Florida heat).
Rodeo Roundup BBQ ©Dsiney
One current Disney project is going to accomplish BOTH! Roundup Rodeo BBQ is bringing table service dining to Toy Story Land in Disney’s Hollywood Studios and we’re pretty darn excited. Despite presumably being delayed, we’re still hoping to check out this spot soon and now we’ve got a RARE look at the construction progress!
The global health crisis has upended the travel industry and resulted in the closure of Disney Parks globally during the spring. Although many parks have reopened (with some ultimately re-closing), Disneyland in Southern California remains closed.
Sleeping Beauty Castle
Although Disneyland Resort did have the opportunity to open up some retail outlets and restaurants at Downtown Disney, as well as on Buena Vista Street in California Adventure, a recent stay-at-home order has put a limit on the capacity for stores, as well as a limit on restaurants to only offer take-out and to-go orders.
There are SO MANY construction projects going on at Disney World right now!
Guardians of the Galaxy Construction
We’ve been watching for updates on Guardians of the Galaxy: Cosmic Rewind, Star Wars: Galactic Starcruiser, Remy’s Ratatouille Adventure, and so many more ongoing projects. And while some projects may not be quite as exciting as a new ride or hotel, they’re still very helpful for improving Disney World as a whole. That’s the case with the project we got a glimpse at today — construction progress for the Transportation and Ticket Center (TTC)!
