food IS a theme park
An exclusive perk is returning to the Magic Kingdom this year for Mickey’s Not-So-Scary Halloween Party!
Magic Kingdom
Don’t look now, but we’re less than two months from the start of Mickey’s Not-So-Scary Halloween Party. Disney confirmed that an exclusive FREE perk will be coming back for the special ticketed event this year, and if you’re a Disney Vacation Club member, you’re going to want to hear about it!
There are a lot of great perks that come with being a Disney Vacation Club Member. We’re talking hotel rooms, exclusive perks, great Disney deals, and more!

We know about some of the big perks, but what about the special low-key ones, like how Disney Vacation Club members can get access to exclusive character meet-and-greets?! There’s a new meet-and-greet in EPCOT, exclusive for DVC, and members are rushing to the park!
Most Disney fans have heard of the Disney Vacation Club, but few realize just how many hidden money-saving perks come with membership.

The Disney Vacation Club (DVC) isn’t just about staying in beautiful villas and deluxe resorts. Members also unlock hundreds of exclusive discounts and experiences that can add up to serious savings. In fact, there are 315 perks currently available to DVC members, and a few of them could save you thousands of dollars over time.
We know, we know, we’re talking about Christmas when Halloween hasn’t happened yet. Hey, we’re not complaining!
Christmas in Magic Kingdom
Disney recently dropped the details for an exclusive holiday event, and all Disney Vacation Club Members are invited to join! It’s going to be filled with food, music, and festive holiday cheer. Let’s take a look at what it is.
2024 has been a year full of announcements for what is on the horizon at Disney World!
Magic Kingdom
While the year is coming to an end, Disney is still announcing new projects left and right. While some announcements have been bittersweet, like the location of the new ‘Cars’ expansion and Monsters, Inc. land, Disney World will soon be home to so many new attractions and experiences! And if you are looking to visit Disney World in the coming years to experience all the latest projects, you will be able to stay at a BRAND- NEW hotel starting in 2027!
It is hard to believe that we are under two months away from December.
December is almost here!
It has been a busy year for Disney World and the Walt Disney Company in general. Within this year, Tiana’s Bayou Adventure and the new Country Bear Jamboree opened in Magic Kingdom. The EPCOT Transformation was officially marked complete when CommuniCore Hall and Plaza opened. At D23, we got the announcement that eight new rides would make their way to Disney World. Genie+ changed to Lightning Lane Multi-Pass, and Individual Lightning Lane changed to Lightning Lane Single Pass at both Disney World and Disneyland. We even got word that four more cruise ships would be joining the Disney Cruise Line line-up, making for a total of 13 ships in the fleet by 2031. It is crazy to look back on all that happened this year, but there is still more to come! Get ready for these two game-changers that will be coming this December!
Disney Vacation Club (DVC) is Disney’s “timeshare” (in quotes because it’s not exactly that) program that allows guests to lock in their “future vacations at today’s purchase price.”

Instead of being locked into a specific Disney World hotel, Disney Cruise Line ship, or Disney resort, DVC members use a Vacation Point System to allow flexibility for when, where, and how long they’d like to stay. If you’re a DVC member, we have exciting news — you’ll want to visit a Disney resort over the course of the next month or so to get these NEW perks!
There are plenty of reasons why someone might want to become a member of the Disney Vacation Club.

DVC Members get tons of perks like discounts on dining, shopping, and more, early access to new rides and attractions, and of course — being able to vacation at Disney properties using pre-purchased points. Joining Disney Vacation Club is a commitment, though, and a new law may make you think twice about it.
