food IS a theme park
It’s been a BIG week for Disney. Not only did a NEW Marvel movie release in theaters, Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3 but May the 4th (aka Star Wars Day) also happened.
Avengers Campus
That means we’ve seen a lot of new Marvel merchandise AND snacks, as well as a lot of new Star Wars merchandise and snacks. So we’re headed to Disneyland to celebrate BOTH with a new popcorn bucket AND souvenir cup.
Something NEW is coming to Disneyland Resort, but you’ll want to hurry!
Groot at Disney California Adventure’s Avengers Campus
Guardians of the Galaxy: Vol. 3 has officially been released in theaters and Disney is celebrating the occasion with NEW snacks and souvenirs. But over at Avengers Campus, something (or should we say someone) very special will be appearing!
If you’re a Marvel fan, you probably have a lot of questions about why there aren’t a lot of Marvel attractions at Disney World. And here’s the thing: Disney CEO Bob Iger would LOVE to have more Marvel there.
Guardians of the Galaxy: Cosmic Rewind
This might seem even MORE confusing when Disneyland and Disneyland Paris both have an Avengers Campus, full of Marvel superheroes, food, and rides. So what gives, Disney World? Why is Guardians of the Galaxy: Cosmic Rewind the ONLY Marvel ride you have? Well, it turns out there’s a very good explanation for that.
Disney has a LOT of gift shops throughout its parks, but you haven’t seen the end of those stores just yet.
Groot at Disney California Adventure’s Avengers Campus
A NEW merchandise spot has been announced for Disney Springs, and in the past, we’ve seen major changes hit some of Disney World’s stores. But now it’s time to hop over to Disneyland Resort — specifically Disney California Adventure Park — where some more gift shop news has been shared.
Meeting our favorite characters can be one of the BEST parts of going to a Disney park.
THEY’RE HERE!
Lately, Disney has been bringing us new additions to the character meet-and-greet lineup, from Kang the Conqueror and Moon Girl in Disney California Adventure to the Mandalorian and Grogu in Hollywood Studios at Disney World. Last year, we even saw a GIANT Hulk at the D23 Expo that later met guests in Disney California Adventure. Well, it turns out, HULK isn’t done meeting guests yet. He’ll be making his way to another Disney theme park soon!
There’s nothing quite like booking a trip knowing you get to stay in brand-new resort rooms! It just feels extra special.
100th Anniversary Sleeping Beauty Castle
Things are changing over in Disneyland, from the rebranding of Pacific Wharf to San Fransokyo Square to a retheme of the Paradise Pier Hotel. Another change is the NEW DVC Villas building at the Disneyland Hotel! We already got a first look at some of the rooms, but now we know exactly when this resort will be opening its doors to guests.
We’re jumping for joy and clicking our heels because Mickey’s Toontown is coming back to Disneyland!
Roger Rabbit’s CarToon Spin
This larger-than-life cartoon land has been getting a bit of a facelift and will re-open on March 19th, 2023. Not only have parts of this area been totally reimagined, but guests can also expect new dining options and merchandise too!
One of the best parts of a Disney vacation is enjoying all of the food you can’t get back home.
Mickey Beignet
Whether that’s unique recipes or Mickey-shaped snacks, you may even make a wish list of snacks to have during your trip to ensure you don’t forget anything!
There’s no denying that many Disney fans are pretty serious about what they love. But just how far will they go?
One final ride
We’ve seen guests wait over six hours for a popcorn bucket which then resold for hundreds of dollars above its original price, so we’d have to say pretty far. But this newest “park souvenir” takes Disney fanaticism to a whole ‘nother level!
Last year we learned that Pacific Wharf in Disney California Adventure was getting a makeover.

This summer, the area will re-open as San Fransokyo, the setting of the Disney animated film Big Hero 6 and a melting pot that blends East and West cultures with a futuristic spin.
