From September 15th through October 15th, both Disneyland Resort and Walt Disney World are celebrating Hispanic and Latin American Heritage Month.

Mirabel
We’ve already started the celebration with over 50 New Snacks coming to Disney parks. In Disney World, we got the additions of two members of the Madrigal family, Bruno and Mirabel (Mirabel has a meet-and-greet and Bruno joined the Disney Adventure Friends Cavalcade). But, the West Coast might have won this round with this NEW spooky sipper.
Can you believe we’re getting a Coco restaurant on Disney’s newest cruise ship?
Disney Cruise Line‘s newest ship, the Disney Treasure, will set sail in the summer of 2024, and Disney recently announced that we’d be getting a Coco-themed restaurant on board WITH characters! Here’s everything we know about this new restaurant.
If you are a fan of Disney’s animated movie Coco, you’re going to want to hear this news!

Coco and Miguel at EPCOT
Coco has become a beloved story for many Disney fans. Guests were excited when, at the D23 Expo last year, Disney teased that a Coco-themed land could be added to the Magic Kingdom. We’re also pretty jealous that, at Disneyland Paris, Casa de Coco — Restaurante de Familia, is opening this summer. But now there’s a NEW way that fans can bring Coco into their homes.
Remember that time Disney teased that an entire LAND could be gutted and rethemed in Animal Kingdom? Or when they lured us in with the potential of a true Casa Madrigal from Encanto (tears may or may not have been shed)? Wait…you don’t know what we’re talking about? Well buckle up, we’ve got some news for you!
Back at the D23 Expo in 2022, Disney shared all kinds of updates, but for those looking toward the future of the parks these “Blue Sky” ideas were some of the more exciting ones. We’ve already taken a look at just what a “Blue Sky” idea is and how likely it is that some of these things will actually happen. But today we’re taking a closer look at those teased expansions and identifying some potential rides that could be made. Wonder what the future of the Disney parks might look like? THIS is the post for you.
We spotted not one, not two, but THREE new Mickey ears headbands in Disney World today!
There are a couple of new holiday designs, and a third headband is all about Disney Pixar’s Coco. One of the new accessories is even available to buy online! Come with us to Disney’s Animal Kingdom to check out all the new ears. [Read more…]
Picture this: You just finished watching Disney’s Emperor’s New Groove for the five-HUNDREDTH time and realized, there is NO ride themed to this movie in Disney World! No “pull the lever, Kronk” moment — NOTHING!
Then you start thinking and realize you also can’t actually go on a Lion King-themed RIDE (ride, not show) or a ride-themed to Tarzan. Imagine Phil Collins music blasting as you soar through the trees — why HASN’T that been made yet?! What gives?! Why won’t Disney make rides themed to your very favorite Disney movies? We have some ideas.
Coco is still a super popular Disney movie, and for good reason.
First, it still makes us cry! But also, we love getting a chance to meet Miguel in Disneyland every chance we get. We also LOVED seeing Ernesto de la Cruz during Oogie Boogie Bash and seeing how much Coco merchandise we find this time of year. Now, we’ve spotted a new pair of Coco Ears!
If you’re going to be at Disney World over November 2nd, 2022, why not take part in an event celebrating Día de los Muertos?
This holiday, also known as Day of the Dead, originated in Mexico but is widely celebrated outside of the country as well. It’s a day for people to remember those they’ve lost as well as celebrate their lives. The festivities, which you may be familiar with from Disney’s animated film Coco, include traditions like building altars or ofrendas to ancestors, creating those famous sugar skulls, and lots and lots of food! Now, a Disney Springs spot is joining in on the celebration.
One of the best accessories to bring Disney into any outfit is a Minnie ear headband. You can get them in all kinds of styles — from the casual corduroy ears we saw recently to $600 (!) tiara ears designed by Vera Wang herself.
Now, we’ve spotted some NEW Minnie ears in Disney World, and fans of Pixar’s Coco have GOT to see the latest design.
