food IS a theme park
Things are ALWAYS changing in Disney World! Lately, it feels like the parks are entirely new places thanks to updates like Villains Land, Piston Peak, Monsters Inc. Land, and even more.

Each week, it feels like Disney is constantly dropping new information, details, and more! That’s why we like to do a weekly wrap-up of the biggest news so you don’t miss a single thing. This week, we heard directly from Disney executives, and there was a major reopening!
A brand-new experience is about to bring Disney Springs to the next level. Level99 is an interactive, social entertainment experience coming to Walt Disney World this summer!
Level99 at Disney Springs
The new Level 99 will be located at Disney Springs West Side, near the Drawn to Life Cirque du Soleil theater. In addition to the opening timeline, we also got a NEW look inside the space!
There are a lot of changes happening at Disney World in 2026, and that is affecting even the most popular restaurants.
Be Our Guest
Between newly reopened restaurants, refreshed menus, and guests being picky about where their dining budget is going to go, we’re seeing even longtime favorites face some competition. That doesn’t mean these restaurants have lost their magic, but it does mean Disney fans are branching out, discovering alternatives that feel newer, more affordable, or just plain more exciting.

LEVEL99 is coming to Disney Springs
Level99 is coming to Walt Disney World in 2026! We know what you might be thinking, “A what now?” which is why we’re here to share everything we know about this interactive, social entertainment experience. The Disney Springs location will be LEVEL99’s fifth, but first in Florida – and we’re pretty darn excited about it!
Disney Springs is the ultimate shopping and dining district, but when it comes to entertainment…the options are a little more limited here. But that’s changing! Back in the day (raise your hand if you remember this), Disney Springs hosted DisneyQuest and the NBA Experience, two entertainment offerings that are now defunct. So, what’s the replacement? We’re so glad you asked! Oh, and if you’re as invested as we are, you can even be part of the OPENING DAY TEAM! Dream job, anyone?
NBA Experience
We are SO ready for the new addition of Level99, which is coming to the same building where Disney’s previous entertainment offerings used to live. While there’s no official opening timeline just yet, we recently saw Disney start work on the building’s exterior, and now we’ve found ANOTHER big sign that this experience is getting closer to opening!
Another week, more Disney news!
