What better way to update your Disney style than with a new MagicBand?!
Hollywood Studios Christmas Decor
Not only are MagicBands your passport to the parks, but with so many options, they have also become an awesome way to show off your Disney style! From a classic red, to adorable Baby Yoda, there’s a MagicBand for just about every occasion! And now, we’ve spotted a NEW Passholder-exclusive option!
It’s just about that time of year again!
Disney Villains After Hours
No, not Christmas — we’re talking about the time of year when Disney Villains take over Magic Kingdom for Disney Villains After Hours! We attended this wickedly fun event last year, and found it delightfully memorable. If you’re a Disney World Annual Passholder looking to attend the night of (tame) frights, Disney is offering an extra special treat to entice!
Whether you love playing basketball, watching from the stands, or just shooting a few hoops, the NBA Experience has the potential to be a blast for the whole family!

And, if you’re an Annual Passholder, you can experience all the fun with a DISCOUNT in Disney World!
For us, nothing tastes more like the Big Easy at Disney World than the little Mickey-shaped pockets of fried dough dusted with powdered sugar! Oui, mes amis, we’re talking about Disney World’s Port Orleans — French Quarter Resort’s famous Mickey Beignets!

In recent weeks, Disney World has released quite a few discounts and deals, from the Ultimate Christmas Package to the free dining offer for the fall and winter.
Animal Kingdom Lodge
And we at DFB want to make sure you get some $$$$$ off your stay, so let’s see which one is right for YOU! Remember, even if you already have a hotel or vacation package booked, you can always call Disney to see if you can get a discount applied to your current booking — or they can rebook you into a lower-priced package or stay. It’s kind of like…magic! ;-D
In January of this year, Disney World and Disneyland introduced park-specific reusable shopping bags as part of their many efforts to eliminate single-use plastics. We love that the designs on the bags are specific to the parks where they’re purchased!
Reusable Shopping Bags
But if you love these merchandise bags like we do, we have a bit of not-so-great news to share. The totes we saw in Magic Kingdom’s Main Street Confectionery have all increased in price by a dollar.
