The 2025 installment of EPCOT’s International Food & Wine Festival is right around the corner, and this is EVERYTHING we know so far.

In addition, I’m also including a few evergreen tips for maximizing your experience at the festival that I’ve picked up over several years of covering the annual extravaganza.
It might still be summertime, but we’re gearing up for the Halloween season, and of course, that means a trip to Disneyland Resort to visit Oogie Boogie Bash!
Oogie Boogie Bash
The popular event is returning for 2025, and Disney has shared details on what sort of frightful fun we can expect at this year’s party. Mark your calendars for select nights from August 17th to October 31st, because a NEW Villain has joined the character lineup!
There’s nothing worse than getting hyped for a ride at Disney World only to find out it’s closed when you get there.

Some fan-favorite attractions are going behind construction walls in 2025 and won’t be back until sometime in 2026. Whether you’re planning your next trip or just trying to stay ahead of the changes, here’s what we know so far about the upcoming closures at Magic Kingdom and Disney’s Hollywood Studios. A couple of these are big, so if they’re on your must-do list, you’ll want to plan around them.
Walt Disney World is in a state of transition. New, exciting experiences are debuting, old favorites are disappearing, and construction on a new future for the resort has begun to take shape.

All of that may have you asking: “Is it smart to go to Disney World right now?”
Universal’s 4th of July is about to get EPIC!
We, my friends, have fireworks
As Universal’s new theme park enters its first summer season, Epic Universe seems prepped to ring in its inaugural Independence Day with a BANG!
If you’re heading to Disney World this summer, especially if you haven’t been in a minute, there are some new “rules” you’ll need to follow!

Summer 2025 is a time of change at Disney World. Muppet*Vision 3D closed to make way for Monsters, Inc. on June 7th, and the Rivers of America will have its final day of operation on July 6th before making way for Cars. Across the resort, two other beloved attractions are in their final months of operation, while another has returned in an all-new version. On top of that, new experiences — and new rules with them — have arrived as well. With that, here are all the NEW Disney World rules for the summer of 2025.
EPCOT is known for its festivals, and while we are currently in between festivals, we can’t help but dream about what is coming up next! The EPCOT Food and Wine Festival is coming on August 28th, and we are already counting the days.

Disney will gradually release more details as we get closer to the festival’s start date, but we can’t help but think about what might be coming. Of course, we have lots of wants and desires, but what trends are we actually expecting to see at the EPCOT Food and Wine Festival? We are sharing some of the trends we think will make their way to this year’s Food and Wine Festival!
Who’s getting pumped for spooky season?!
Oogie Boogie at Oogie Boogie Bash
We’re getting our plans set for the Halloween season, and of course, that means a trip to Disneyland Resort to visit Oogie Boogie Bash! The popular event is returning for 2025, and we’ve rounded up the FULL list of everything that it has to offer.
Disney’s Hollywood Studios is changing a lot over the next few years, and whether Disney fans like it or not, that also includes one iconic ride.
Rock ‘n’ Roller Coaster
Whether you are flying across the galaxy or dropping in for some fun on the Tower of Terror, Hollywood Studios holds a lot of adventure. There are also some BIG changes heading to this Disney park to make way for a new land and with that, Disney fans are left saying goodbye (for now) to the Muppets.
Ride closures and refurbishments are a fact of life at Walt Disney World. Odds are slim that you’ll ever visit the resort and find every single ride and attraction operating on a single day.
Welcome to Magic Kingdom
In fact, if you’re planning on heading to the Magic Kingdom later in 2025, you’re going to find not one, but two of the park’s best-known attractions will be CLOSED for the remainder of the year!
