food IS a theme park
Many Disneyland Resort auditions have been canceled or suspended since the theme park closed in March.
Black Panther Meet and Greet
Walt Disney World reopened last month while Disneyland Resort has seen several delays in reopening. Despite this, Disneyland has continued with construction on the highly-anticipated Avengers Campus. We recently noticed a new audition post that indicates the theme parks could be preparing for some Marvel-themed entertainment! [Read more…]
We just got a peek at some big progress on the Avengers Campus in Disneyland!

Prior to the park closures, Avengers Campus was originally slated to open in Disney California Adventure on July 18th, 2020. And even though we don’t yet know when the new opening date will be, it looks like some serious progress is being made!
We’ve been wondering a lot about how the historic closures of the Disney parks might affect the progress of Disney’s upcoming attractions.

Well, Disney just gave us a little bit of an update. With the recent announcement of a full re-theme of Splash Mountain in Disney World and Disneyland, Disney provided a little insight into how this project and the closures have affected projects such as Avengers Campus in Disney California Adventure and TRON: Lightcycle Run in Magic Kingdom.
There are LOTS of interesting and exciting developments across the Walt Disney Company! We are starting to see the gradual reopening process begin around the globe, and the news just doesn’t stop these days!

Now, it appears that a very early step in the process of resuming operations in Disneyland is being put into motion. Disney is working with California government and health officials to reinstate limited teams for “essential work” on Avengers Campus and Mickey and Minnie’s Runaway Railway.
An update to the Disneyland Paris website reveals additional information regarding the upcoming Disney’s Hotel New York — The Art of Marvel.

Due to the current global health situation, construction was put on hold for the renovation of the hotel (as Disneyland Paris currently remains closed until further notice). Though the originally announced opening date was June 15, 2020, the website now states that the timeline for the opening has been impacted. [Read more…]
There’s a literary expression that goes a bit like, “the best laid plans of mice and men often go awry.”
Magic Kingdom
Somehow, that phrase seems totally prophetic when you think about how many “big plans” Disney had in the works right before everything got really, REALLY weird.
Disney World and Disneyland have just debuted new Stars Wars: Galaxy Edge lands which are nearly identical and have the same rides, including Millennium Falcon: Smugglers Run and Rise of the Resistance.
Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge
Not only that, but Disneyland recently received its own version of Mickey’s Philharmagic. And soon, Disneyland will also be getting its own version of Mickey and Minnie’s Runaway Railway. That got us thinking, what else could — and should — Disneyland borrow from Disney World?
