food IS a theme park
Hello, DFB friends! We spent a lovely day walking around Hollywood Studios to see if we could spot anything new.

Nothing but blue skies! So what did we notice since our last stroll around the park?
For many guests, dining at Cinderella’s Royal Table is at the top of their Disney World bucket list!
Cinderella’s Royal Table
Located inside Cinderella Castle in Magic Kingdom, the incredible atmosphere and opportunity to meet the Disney Princesses have traditionally been the main selling points of this restaurant. But, upon initial reopening, the princesses are no longer stopping by for guests meet-and-greets — although Cinderella may make an appearance from a distance. So, is Cinderella’s Royal Table worth visiting even without the chance to meet the Disney Princesses? Let’s dive in!
Since the Walt Disney World theme parks reopened a few months ago, we’ve seen various changes including the introduction of systems like the Park Pass Reservation System and the suspension of Fastpass+.
Christmas At Magic Kingdom
The holiday experience at Disney World has also changed significantly. Just recently, we shared some updates with you about the upcoming Christmastime entertainment and offerings that will be available at Disney World this year, but there’s also quite a few Christmas staples that guests won’t be able to experience.
We’re not sure what we miss the most from the pre-closure days of Disney World, but fireworks are definitely up there on our list.
Magic Kingdom Fireworks
Disney World reopened in early July of 2020 with a lot of changes to help keep guests and Cast Members safe. One of the most high-profile changes was the suspension of nightly fireworks and nighttime spectaculars — and they remain suspended even now. How long will it be until we can see the sky above Disney World light up with fireworks again? Here’s what we know.
It’s only September, but Christmas in Disney World is already on our minds.
Christmas At Magic Kingdom 2019
We were checking out the Halloween treats around the parks today when we were suddenly bombarded by Christmas news — but we’re not complaining! We’ve got special holiday character dining and a beloved EPCOT festival to look forward to, but now let’s take a look at ALL of the holiday entertainment coming to Disney World this year!
Sure, it’s already beginning to look a LOT like… HALLOWEEN at the Disney World theme parks right now. But TODAY Disney has given us a bit of a glimpse about what the HOLIDAY SEASON will be like this year!
Magic Kingdom During the Holidays
We’ve got a LOT more to share today about the Most Wonderful Time of the Year in Walt Disney World, which will bring yuletide festivities from November 6th through December 30th around the Resort. But here, we’re talking all about what the celebration will bring to one very special place in Walt Disney World: Magic Kingdom’s Cinderella Castle! [Read more…]
We’ve been keeping a close eye on the Cinderella Castle refurbishment!
Magic Kingdom
There was a lot of preparation involved in refurbishing Cinderella Castle — as we saw with the “paint-by-number” situation on the castle earlier this summer! In order to complete the updates, the surrounding moat was drained, and we hadn’t seen it returned to its former glory since the parks reopened — until today!
It’s hard to believe the MLS is Back Tournament is already over!
ESPN Wide World of Sports Complex
When news broke back in June Major League Soccer would be restarting at Disney World’s ESPN Wide World of Sports Complex we could hardly believe it!
