Picking a Loungefly for Disney World requires strategy. You need enough room for your phone, portable charger, sunglasses, emergency snacks, and the seven receipts you swear you will organize later. But it also has to match the park. Carrying a pirate bag through Adventureland feels intentional. Carrying it through EPCOT after three festival booths feels like you may have commandeered the wrong vessel.
We found some of the BEST Loungefly bags and accessories for each Disney World park, including choices inspired by classic attractions, new movies, and characters who deserve considerably more park merchandise.
Disney World is home to some pretty intense crowd surges, but March 16th at Animal Kingdom could be a whole different level of chaos.
Animal Kingdom
If you’re planning to visit Animal Kingdom on March 16th, you might want to steer clear of one very specific spot: the area around the Tree of Life, where It’s Tough to be a Bug! is located. That’s because March 16th marks the last day of showtimes for the long-running attraction before it permanently closes to make way for a brand-new Zootopia show. Let’s talk about why this is happening and what you can do to navigate the chaos.
Huge changes are coming to Animal Kingdom!
Animal Kingdom
DinoLand U.S.A. is being transformed into a Tropical Americas-themed land named Pueblo Esperanza and will include three brand new attractions! These attractions include an Encanto-themed attraction, a carousel, and an Indiana Jones-themed attraction. But it is not only DinoLand U.S.A. that is changing. Animal Kingdom’s park icon, the Tree of Life is home to It’s Tough to Be a Bug! and the time has finally come — we have a closing date for this show.
You can NEVER have too many Loungeflys! Especially when you can pick up some for cheaper.

Loungeflys are perfect for the parks and with so many options, you can find the backpack that is perfect for you. We love wearing our Loungeflys in the parks and now you can grab some on Amazon for $50 or less.

Despite the fact that “It’s Tough To Be A Bug” may eventually close its doors at Disney’s Animal Kingdom in the foreseeable future, Disney is still coming out with A Bug’s Life merchandise. In fact, if you find yourself in Disney Springs any time soon, you’ll have an opportunity to pick up THREE new items based on the Disney-Pixar classic!
Listen, y’all, we’ve seen some absolutely incredible merchandise releases since Disney’s 100th Anniversary Celebrations kicked off.

And trust us — we’re certainly not complaining. Some of our favorites have been part of the Disney Decades Collections, a series of releases inspired by Disney films and franchises throughout the years. So far we’ve seen collections dedicated to the 1920s all the way through the 1980s, and now, the 1990s collection has officially landed in the parks and online!
There’s a BIG event going on at Disney’s Animal Kingdom, but it won’t last long!
The Tree of Life
April 22nd is this park’s 25th anniversary, and it’s also Earth Day. That means special snacks, character meet-and-greets, and new merchandise are all taking over the park! Those aren’t the only changes, though, so come along with us to find out what’s NEW in Animal Kingdom since our last visit. [Read more…]
Seeing a Disney character in Disney World is a BELOVED pastime, right up there with eating Mickey Pretzels and riding the PeopleMover!
Mickey!
Make no mistake, there are LOTS of classic characters we NEVER get tired of spotting (and HUGGING!) in Disney World, but we also get excited about spotting a RARE character!
Though we love the Disney parks, Disney also does a pretty darn great job on their movies!

Have you ever wondered what the most popular Disney flick is in EACH country?
