food IS a theme park
If you’ve been wanting to ride every ride on Disney property as many times as you’d like, the day has finally come.
Virtual Queue at Tiana’s
This controversial Disney system is leaving Magic Kingdom and EPCOT tomorrow!
It may have just felt like a normal Tuesday to most of us, but Disney World decided February 18th was the day to announce some MASSIVE Disney news!
Guardians of the Galaxy: Cosmic Rewind
Disney just announced that as of February 25th, Tiana’s Bayou Adventure in Magic Kingdom and Guardians of the Galaxy: Cosmic Rewind in EPCOT will no longer require a Virtual Queue and will instead switch to a standby line. Some guests are excited about this change, but many others? Well, let’s just say they’re not happy.
Sometimes you can’t just walk up to a Disney World attraction and get in the queue.

If a Disney ride has gone down and the queue has needed to be evacuated, you won’t be able to stand in line to wait (though you can stand around the ride if you’d like, but we don’t recommend that if the Cast Members are hinting that the ride could be down for awhile). However, there are a handful of Disney World rides that have what are called Virtual Queues, and you must enter one of those to be able to ride. If you’re heading to the parks this year and haven’t been in a while, these are the only rides we expect to continue using Virtual Queues this year.
If there’s one thing that’s true about Disney World, it’s that it’s always changing.

However, we’re also always changing with it. Our snack preferences change, our tolerance for extreme heat may be getting lower, and, of course, we get older year after year. We’ve found that a lot of the members of our team have really started to notice this as they visit the parks in recent years because a lot of our team is made up of Millennials. As much as it pains us to admit, we’ve started to run into a nearly irreversible problem in the parks.
We love Cast Members! They are what make Disney World such a magical place, and we can’t thank them enough for what they do every single day.
Guardians of the Galaxy: Cosmic Rewind
Disney World wouldn’t be the same without the Cast Members, and we wanted to talk about a rule at Guardians of the Galaxy: Cosmic Rewind in EPCOT that Cast Members are begging you not to break.
Do you like character meet-and-greets at Disney World?
Chip and Dale in Dinoland!
It’s always tons of fun when you get to meet your favorite characters and have a fun conversation with them! Disney brings them from the big screen to real life, and it’s always so exciting. Most recently, we’ve even gotten to meet some of our biggest heroes from Marvel comics and movies. Most of these Marvel characters are over in Disney California Adventure on the West Coast, but now a popular Guardian is dancing his way around EPCOT!

Were you in EPCOT on September 21st?
Guardians of the Galaxy: Cosmic Rewind
Guardians of the Galaxy: Cosmic Rewind was celebrating the special day with some Earth, Wind, & Fire by blaring ‘September’ through the ride all day long! It was a fun way to celebrate one of Star-Lord’s (a.k.a. Peter Quill) favorite songs from his childhood cassette tapes. Speaking of Star-Lord, if you love Guardians of the Galaxy, you might be excited about this new Disney announcement!
