food IS a theme park
There are some brand new construction walls in Disney World’s Hollywood Studios in the the current Star Wars, Grand Avenue, and Commissary Lane intersection areas.
New Construction Walls in Hollywood Studios
The walls run from the area around the “Star Wars Bathrooms” across from Star Tours all the way around to Commissary Lane across from BaseLine Tap House.
We went to the Animal Kingdom looking for animals, and instead found aliens and yetis! But, don’t worry, they are super cute!
Alien Straw Clips
This little alien is at The Feeding Ground on a straw clip just waiting for you to choose him! Check out these newest straw clips here! They are also found at Pizza Planet in Disneyland!
There’s a lot of construction happening at the Walt Disney World Resort, and Disney Springs is no exception with work continuing on the NBA Experience and City Works Eatery and Pour House.

Today we checked out the progress on both projects!
There’s so much going on in Epcot! They are getting ready for the Festival of the Arts to open next week, adding new rides, attractions, restaurants, and even more. This visit was jam-packed with updates!
Hello from Epcot!
Let’s dive into all of the updates and start in Future World at one of our first stops on every visit — Fountain View for Coffee and Cupcakes!
There’s a lot going on in Epcot! World Showcase is getting ready for a new nighttime show after IllumiNations ends, Japan is welcoming a new table-service restaurant, France is adding a Ratatouille Ride and Beauty and the Beast attraction, and a Guardians of the Galaxy ride is coming to Future World. That means lots of construction, construction walls, scrims, and more around the park. We checked on the progress of all of these projects on our latest visit to the park.
Guardians of the Galaxy Ride Construction
With one of the more colorful construction walls in the park — the Guardians of the Galaxy ride is coming along with the conversion of the former Universe of Energy building into the queue building for the new ride.
Our next adventure in the parks took us to Animal Kingdom on the search for new food, new merchandise and any updates for you!
Animal Kingdom’s Tree of Life
We were excited to see and say “welcome back” to a cupcake friend featuring Lion King‘s Simba as our day in the park started at Creature Comforts.
With only three weeks left in 2018 we are getting closer and closer to the opening date of Disney World’s Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge Land in the fall of 2019. Now, it looks like Disney is getting just as excited as we are because we spotted the previously seen Galaxy’s Edge merchandise in a more permanent location in Hollywood Studios! While we were in the park we also checked on the progress of the construction of the new land as well as renovations at Tatooine Traders.
Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge T-Shirt
Take a close look at the shirt — can you see the Millennium Falcon on there between “Landing” and “2019”? That’s a cool and subtle nod to the new ride, Millennium Falcon: Smugglers Run.
Disney World’s Magic Kingdom is busy as they work to build the new Tron attraction opening in 2021 for the park’s 50th anniversary (can’t wait!). This week a popular, and original ride was temporarily closed as they continue construction on the new Tron attraction.
Fantasyland Train Station Closed Sign
That’s right, the Walt Disney Railroad isn’t running as Tron’s construction nears the railroad tracks, but it isn’t all bad news for fans of the train.
Happy weekend! Here’s all the Disney food news this week!
