food IS a theme park
One of our favorite Disney World hotel perks is set to return once again in January, and we can’t wait to hit up Magic Kingdom and EPCOT after dark!
Spaceship Earth crowds during EPCOT’s Extended Evening park hours
Extended Evening Hours offers two extra hours to guests staying at Disney Deluxe Tier or Deluxe Villa resorts at select theme parks on select evenings after the park closes to the general public, and there are several nights when it’s offered in January!
Hold onto your hats, friends, because something brand NEW just dropped at Universal Studios Hollywood!
Universal Studios Hollywood
Fast & Furious: Hollywood Drift has now been open for a few months and has been a major hit, and while we did see it (sort of) added to Express Pass, that’s not the change we’re talking about. If you love visiting the parks as many times as you can, but don’t want to pay each time, you’ve likely got an Annual Pass. Now, there’s a NEW Annual Pass that has just arrived that you need to know about!
As you may know, Disney World is currently undergoing a LOT of change. But if you don’t know, don’t worry — I’ll fill you in! They’re building new lands in the parks, including Monstropolis, Piston Peak, Villains Land, and Pueblo Esperanza, reimagining attractions, and introducing a whole new dining plan! But it doesn’t stop there — changes are hitting the hotels, too!
Disney’s Wilderness Lodge
In 2027, changes will be hitting 10 hotels, including Disney’s Contemporary Resort, Art of Animation Resort, Disney’s Beach Club Resort, and more! Well, another hotel has just been added to the list of refurbishments next year and beyond, and we have everything you need to know.
I CAN’T WAIT to start my holiday shopping — and I know exactly where I’m going to start!

Around this time of the year, you’ll often find me on my phone, scrolling through Amazon as I take advantage of holiday sales and snag long-wanted souvenirs that I’ve been eyeing all year. Sometimes, you’ll even catch me shopping for some Disney holiday merch — and Disney Adults are gonna love some of the stuff I’ve scoped out recently!
Attention Sam’s Club Members: A BRAND-NEW Disney Gift Card deal is available right now!
Disney gift cards!
Many Disney guests use gift cards for nearly everything, from actually paying for their trips in full to using them as a method of controlling spending money while on vacation. This method is especially beneficial at warehouse clubs like Sam’s Club, which often have discounts on gift cards that, in turn, give them de facto discounts on Disney trips and souvenirs.
RED ALERT! Christmas is under two months away, which means it’s time to start making those lists and buying those presents! And while I wasn’t planning on spending $50 today, I couldn’t pass it up when I saw these Toy Story souvenirs — they’re the PERFECT gifts for the little ones in my life!

If you have someone in your life who is obsessed with this crew (because let’s be honest, who isn’t?), now is the time to grab these souvenirs, especially since one of them is on sale! Let’s take a look!
Run — don’t walk — to pick up this amazing Disney souvenir!

Wouldn’t it be great if every LEGO set were available forever? Alas, that is not the case. LEGO periodically retires sets to make way for new offerings — which means the clock is always ticking when it comes to picking up that popular set you’ve had your eyes on. For one beloved Pixar set on Amazon, that end date is on the horizon, and we’ll be forced to wave goodbye as it goes up, up, and away from all online stores.
There’s a brand new collection on the Disney Store website right now, and it’s right up your alley if you’ve been really looking for those comfy vibes.

In fact, we’ve got a feeling it’ll be pretty popular and sell out fast, so if you want to add some of it to your closet, you’ll want to act fast!
Y’all!! A new Christmas Disney x Starbucks collection just released online. And guess what!! It includes those cool new Starbucks cup sleeves you’ve been seeing all over!!
NEW Starbucks Christmas collection!
Last week, we saw some items from a brand-new holiday Starbucks “Mint to Be” collection at the Emporium on Main Street, U.S.A., at Magic Kingdom. We found some of the same items at Hollywood Studios. The problem is that the collection was only available to guests at Disney World. Well, not anymore, because the new holiday collection just dropped online!
It’s 5:47 AM. You’re tucked into your bed at Disney’s Pop Century Resort, blissfully asleep after a 25,000-step park day. Your alarm isn’t set for another hour. Then BANG.
Disney’s Pop Century Resort
No, that’s not the fireworks. And it’s not a dropped suitcase. It’s a door. Somebody three rooms down just headed out for rope drop, and they let their door slam shut behind them. And then — BANG — they forgot their MagicBand and went back in. Friends, we have a problem. We’re calling them Hall Trolls, and they’re lurking in Disney World hotels everywhere.
