food IS a theme park
Argh! We are so ready for Pirates of the Caribbean Tavern to open in Magic Kingdom!
Adventureland!
Disney has been teasing us with information, and today, we got a behind-the-scenes look at this experience.
We just heard from a Disney Imagineer regarding some of the work going into creating the new Tropical Americas-themed land at Disney’s Animal Kingdom!
Disney’s Animal Kingdom
This new land in Animal Kingdom will be called Pueblo Esperanza and is expected to open in 2027. Construction is already in progress as the first phase of closures began in DinoLand, U.S.A., on January 13th, 2025.
The EPCOT International Flower and Garden Festival is right around the corner!
It’s almost time!
The festival will run from March 5th until June 2nd, and there is so much to see and do. EPCOT has already started transforming for the festival, as topiaries, flowers, and the Butterfly Garden have already started to pop up! Plus, this festival will be full of exclusive merchandise, entertainment, and, of course, our favorite part: food!
There are so many Cast Members that bring Disney Parks to life — who wouldn’t want to be part of that magic?
Magic Kingdom
We think just about every Disney adult has dreamed about becoming a Walt Disney Imagineer, and Disney just gave us an insider look at what that job REALLY looks like!
Okay, it’s time to give our reporters a huge shout-out because they do the impossible almost every single day.
Dole Whip
From hitting every single food booth at EPCOT festivals (which is how we got all our great reviews of the EPCOT Festival of the Arts recently) to visiting what could be Disney World’s WORST restaurants to eating turkey legs when it’s required of them (and y’all know how most of us here at DFB feel about turkey legs), DFB reporters go above and beyond in the parks every single day in Disney World and Disneyland. So we’re going to give you a little peek inside the life of a reporter when things get HARD.
This isn’t Antarctica. We’re not dealing with subzero temperatures or anything, but hey, it’s COLD in Disney World right now! *Cue incredulous laughter from the North* Even in Central Florida, you can experience temperatures in the low 40s — and even 30s — from time to time. So, what do a bunch of Florida locals do when it gets chilly in Disney World? Well, we do something you would NEVER expect.
Blizzard Beach
What’s the last thing you feel like doing when it’s snowing outside? Jumping in a cold shower? Walking around in shorts? Eating a bowl of ice cream? Surprise! Even when it’s freezing cold outside, the DFB team is eating frozen treats. But there’s a method to our madness!
It takes a lot of work to keep you updated on the latest and greatest Disney news. But here at DFB, we love what we do!
Cinderella Castle
We’ve been doing this for over 15 years (!!!), and not only has The Walt Disney Company changed, but so has Disney Food Blog. So, to celebrate our 15th birthday — and all our years of bringing you the most up-to-date information (AND to battle the LACK of an EPCOT festival this summer) we’re throwing our own FESTIVAL!
DFB Mega Fest is two weeks full of giveaways, fun content across all of our social media platforms and blogs, YouTube scavenger hunts, and MORE! Head over to the Mega Fest Hub to see what’s planned!
To get the ball rolling — today we’re letting you in on some behind-the-scenes secrets here at DFB!
I’m a Disney World reporter, and whenever I say that, people have a LOT of questions!
Cinderella Castle
It’s a pretty rare job, and so friends, family members, and strangers are often curious about what it is that I actually do on a workday. Me and my reporter teammates get asked many of the same questions over and over again, so I’m coming clean today! I’m here to answer the most popular questions about my job.
Seeing the Walt Disney World sign at the start of a trip always makes us smile. The beginning of a Disney World trip is filled with so many emotions.
Walt Disney World
There is so much to do at Disney World, but there are also some surprising things you will want to avoid so you don’t get kicked out of it.
A BRAND NEW exclusive backstage experience is coming to Disney Springs.
Drawn to Life
Cirque du Soleil has a had a presence at Walt Disney World since the show La Nouba – complete with custom-built theater – opened in the area then known as Downtown Disney in 1998. That show ran for 19 years before closing on New Year’s Eve 2017. Its replacement show, the COVID-delayed Disney Animation-based Drawn to Life, premiered just under four years later in November of 2021.
