Magic Kingdom ULTIMATE Guide
…but in today’s ULTIMATE GUIDE, we’re gonna make sure YOU’RE prepared for a 2026 visit to this ultra popular park, no matter WHAT changes it throws your way.
Something new is coming to Disney World…okay, well, a lot of new things are coming to Disney World, but we want to chat about something new coming to Disney Springs.

Back in February 2025, we learned that LEVEL99 would likely be taking over the building that was once the NBA Experience in Disney Springs. In September, we finally got confirmation that this was actually happening, and shortly after that, we started seeing signs of construction around the building, complete with a LEVEL99 marquee. Well, now, we have an idea of when this new experience will open: 2026.
Have you been staying up to date with all the transformations coming to Hollywood Studios in Disney World? There’s a LOT going on.

One area that I’m excited for is Walt Disney Studios, which is taking over Animation Courtyard and Star Wars: Launch Bay. Disney said a new show will be coming to the space, and we finally got new details!
Ready for takeoff? Soarin’s next destination is home with an all-new American adventure landing in 2026!

We’ve been expecting a new Soarin’ experience in time for America’s 250th celebration, and now Disney has officially charted the flight plan — complete with an opening timeline for when we’ll expect to see this change in EPCOT.
We finally know when we can expect to see changes at Frozen Ever After in EPCOT!
Frozen Ever After
Disney previously revealed that the Anna, Elsa, and Kristoff animatronics will all be getting new updates — and we officially know when that will happen!
The countdown to the final riff begins — Disney’s just announced the timeline of when we can expect Aerosmith’s farewell run on Rock ‘n’ Roller Coaster to take its final ride before The Muppets crash the stage.

Rock ’n’ Roller Coaster’s transformation has been brewing for a while, and Disney’s been slowly setting the stage — literally! The Aerosmith pre-show has already been completely walled off, signaling the end of the backstage recording studio era as Imagineers prep for the attraction’s full Muppets takeover. When the coaster reopens in summer 2026, we’ll be trading rock legends for classic chaos as The Muppets bring their signature blend of music, mayhem, and humor to the high-speed launch Disney fans already love.
Hollywood Studios has been going through a major transformation with new lands and areas coming to the park. One I’m most excited about is the Walt Disney Studios area, which is replacing Animation Courtyard and Star Wars: Launch Bay.

Disney just dropped new details (including an opening timeline), and y’all, is it too early to already book a trip?
Everyone, remain calm!!!!
Big Thunder Mountain Railroad
Disney just dropped a TON of announcements about what’s coming to Disney World in 2026, and we’re on the edge of our seats just waiting for it all to happen. As part of the announcements, we finally know when Big Thunder Mountain Railroad and Buzz Lightyear’s Space Ranger Spin will reopen at Magic Kingdom!
We know, we know. EPCOT Festival of the Holidays just started, and Festival of the Arts is on the horizon, but Disney decided to get us excited for the next festival, too.
Flower and Garden Festival (2023)
The EPCOT Flower and Garden Festival, one of the prettiest festivals, is returning in spring, and we have the official dates.
