food IS a theme park
So, you’re hooked on Disney? Fun fact: We are too!
EPCOT
Who could blame us? Millions flock to Disneyland and Disney World every year. It’s almost like it’s turned into some kind of annual pilgrimage of joy. But wait. Could there be more to this obsession than meets the eye? Spoiler alert: science thinks so!
Happy New Year, DFB readers! Whether you’re celebrating on the West Coast at Disneyland, the East Coast at Disney World, or attending special events at Disney Springs restaurants like Raglan Road or The Edison, or just ringing in the new year from the comfort of your own home — tonight we all celebrate with fun, friends, and the thunderous booms of fireworks all over the world!
Happy New Year!
To kick off a lively and spirited New Year celebration, Disney World’s exclusive fireworks are RETURNING to Magic Kingdom and EPCOT. And today, we’re giving you a first look at Disney World’s New Year’s Eve fireworks as we welcome in 2024!
Two Disney World rides will be temporarily CLOSED soon, so if you want to get one more ride in, you’ll need to get to the theme parks this week!
Disney’s Hollywood Studios
Disney occasionally shuts down rides and attractions in order to refresh and update them, and soon it will be time for two popular attractions to get their annual refurbishment.
Sometimes we question whether or not we should skip the Disney trip and do something else for our next vacation.
Mickey and Pals at Cinderella Castle
The beach, the mountains, a non-Disney cruise… they’re all options. When we picture that, though, we just have this heartbreaking image of Mickey being really sad. Plus, there’s something that just keeps pulling us back to the Most Magical Place on Earth. It could be the rides, the food, the entertainment, or a mix of all three. But, let’s be super honest with ourselves, here. It’s mostly the food.
Orlando International Airport (MCO) has a following almost as impressive as Disney’s.

Many Disney fans consider it a sign that their trip has officially begun — as soon as they see that famous carpet. There are plenty of reasons to love MCO, but their X (Twitter) account might just be one of them — and we’re sharing the funniest tweets from the 2023 Orlando Airport Twitter.
It’s SO hard to get into TV series these days because we never know when they might be canceled.

That’s particularly true with Disney shows, especially since we’ve seen MANY shows get canceled this year, including The Wonder Years, National Treasure, and more. Well, it’s time to add ANOTHER show to the list because Disney just canceled a Disney Channel series.
If there’s one thing we love about EPCOT (do we have to pick just one?!) it’s the wide variety of different festivals we get to experience throughout the year!

January 12th ushers in the 2024 EPCOT Festival of the Arts and we’ve been getting more and more excited as each day approaches. We’re looking forward to the delicious eats, exciting entertainment, and more that the festival has to offer. But, what makes this festival special is all the incredible art — and Disney just revealed new details about the artists!

Did anyone ever watch the original Charlotte’s Web movie as a kid? Like, the cartoon version?
One of the best parts about Disney World is the FOOD!
Well, there’s a scene that comes to mind every time we visit Disney World. It’s the scene where Templeton the rat is wandering around the county fair and singing, “The fair is a veritable smorgasbord!” Well, Disney World is a veritable smorgasbord. Yep, there are delicious and tempting eats everywhere you turn at the Most Magical Place on Earth. Except… they’re often pretty ‘spensive. It’s easy to fog eat your way through the parks, and then you’ve blown a large chunk of your vacation budget. Not on our watch! Noooo way. We’re here to help you snack the financially savvy way. Let’s talk about it!
Disney can never let some things go.
Tomorrowland in Magic Kingdom
Even if it has been years since we have seen things in the Disney parks or any of their other media outlets, things just have a way of creeping back up on us. Sometimes– we welcome those things back with open arms, and other times we feel like we’re left with a giant question mark floating above our head. We’re not sure how we’re feeling about this particular thing coming back, so it is up to you to decide how we feel (or at least give us your thoughts so we can formulate ours).
Our handy (and portable!) ebook guides make sure you get the best deals and can plan a vacation of a lifetime.
