food IS a theme park
Disney’s newest fireworks show Harmonious, has been in talks for some time.

This show has been on our minds for a WHILE and with the park closures, we’re not too sure when we’ll finally get to see it hit the waters of World Showcase Lagoon. So, it’s pretty exciting whenever we see a potential sign of work on the area of Harmonious — and we saw a sign today!
Ever since the Disney World parks reopened, we’ve been unable to hop aboard one of our favorite chill attractions.
Closed PeopleMover
The Tomorrowland Transit Authority PeopleMover has remained closed for refurbishment in Magic Kingdom for several months now, and we’re not set to see it open until late November. Now, it looks like the attraction is getting some work done behind the scenes!
One major Disney project that we’ve got our eye on is the Star Wars: Galactic Starcruiser hotel.
Star Wars: Galactic Starcruiser Concept Art
We keep our eye out for Disney permits to make sure that we don’t miss any exciting developments on projects like Galactic Starcruiser. We know that work continues to be underway thanks to recent patents and overhead photos, but now it looks like some set elements and theming are being incorporated at the site!
We’ve got some interesting Disney World construction news today!
Big Thunder Mountain in Disney World
We spend a lot of time spotting construction in the Disney parks. Just yesterday we found some new construction in EPCOT’s Italy Pavilion. To be honest, we’re pretty used to construction in EPCOT, but it’s more surprising when we hear tell of projects in Magic Kingdom! Could these permits point to upcoming ride refurbishments?
Disney Springs is a place of constant change, and we are so here for it.
Splitsville
Seriously, this complex is always getting some improvements or a new dining or shopping location. Right now, we’re still loving the newly-opened lululemon AND we’re looking forward to the opening of Gideon’s Bakehouse! Now, an existing Disney Springs location is going to be getting some updates!
We’re looking forward to the NEW Cirque du Soleil show that’s coming to Disney World!
Cirque du Soleil
Drawn to Life was supposed to premiere at the Disney Springs Cirque du Soleil location earlier this year. Of course, due to the closure of the parks and the construction halts, the opening of the show has been delayed (multiple times), and now, a new permit shows that some work on the Cirque building has had to be extended as well.
The EPCOT Transformation has been a BIG item on Disney’s to-do list for some time now.
Epcot Construction
As you might know, Future World is set to get a pretty major makeover into the new World Celebration complete with new greenery, new statues, and more! This work has been ongoing for a while and Future World is pretty crisscrossed with construction barriers right now. Well, a new permit lets us know a little bit about the progress behind the barrier!
Oh, EPCOT, you ever-changing place!
Spaceship Earth
We’re in EPCOT often to check out the latest construction, and it really does feel like there are updates every time we visit! But today, we found some updates from behind-the-scenes. This is construction you probably WON’T see on your EPCOT day, but it sure is exciting nonetheless! Let’s take a look at some BIG EPCOT building permits!
We are in a constant state of anticipation for the upcoming Guardians of the Galaxy rollercoaster in EPCOT.
Guardians of the Galaxy Cosmic Rewind
Guardians of the Galaxy: Cosmic Rewind is a new coaster that’s set to open sometime before Disney World’s 50th Anniversary next year. We were pumped to see progress recently, and now we know what they might be working on!
Ah, the world where mouse rules apply!
Welcome to Mickey & Minnie’s Runaway Railway!
Mickey and Minnie’s Runaway Railway is still SUPER fresh in Disney World, and though this new attraction is super high demand, it seems like Disney might still be doing some work on the ride building. We spotted some new construction permits for the Chinese Theater in Hollywood Studios!
