NEW DETAILS Revealed for the LAST Jellyrolls Performance in Disney World

By Leave a Comment

One of the biggest complaints we see from Disney adults is the lack of nightlife in Disney World.

Jellyrolls

There are only a few spots open late enough to be actually considered as nightlife, and it seems that late night entertainment options continue to disappear from the resort. Well, Disney World will soon be down one MORE nighttime entertainment spot: Jellyrolls will soon close its doors on Disney’s BoardWalk (though management has promised they’ll be announcing a new location soon!). However, before those doors at Disney World close, the dueling piano bar is going to offer the PARTY of a lifetime.

You Won’t BELIEVE the Crowds at This Classic Disney Ride Before It Permanently Closed

By Leave a Comment

It’s always sad when a Disneyland ride closes, even if it’s not a super popular ride.

Red Car Trolley

For example, in Disney California Adventure, we were very sad to see Tower of Terror close, although we LOVE the ride that replaced it, Guardians of the Galaxy: Mission Breakout. Well, another ride has closed in that park, and let’s just say we were shocked at how popular this ride suddenly became a day before its permanent closure. Yes, the Red Car Trolley is officially gone forever, but we managed to get one last ride on it before it closed.

There’s no way of putting this gently: Disney World is going to be a bit of a mess this year and probably next year, too.

Animal Kingdom

Magic Kingdom is getting an expansion AND a new land. Hollywood Studios is getting a new land. Animal Kingdom will also be getting a new land, resulting in construction walls and closures.

More than 30 years before Disney World changed the landscape of Florida tourism forever, Cypress Gardens was the most famous attraction in the Sunshine State. Originally opened in 1936 by the legendary Dick Pope Sr., the botanical garden and theme park was headlined by a water-skiing show that drew in millions of guests – – including some huge celebrities – – to see daredevil performers including Pope’s son Dick Pope Jr. The show’s success popularized the sport, made the park’s home of Winter Haven the “water skiing capital of the world”, and put Florida on the metaphorical map for millions.
