Welcome back, DFB friends! We’re here with another What’s New at EPCOT and EPCOT Resorts!
And, we’ve got plenty of updates to share with you! So, what are you waiting for? Let’s dive right on in!
Things are constantly changing all around Disney World, including over at Disney Springs.

Disney Springs
Recently, Gideon’s Bakehouse reopened, and Everglazed Donuts & Cold Brew opened as well. There’s been quite a bit of progress on the construction of the M&M’s Store, but we’re still on the lookout for more movement at the future Beatrix location. Although some stores and restaurants are opening, others are closing. Today, we heard that Kiehl’s Since 1851 will soon have its last day at Disney Springs.
We’ve been keeping a close eye on all of the construction going on at Star Wars: Galactic Starcruiser (a.k.a. the Star Wars hotel that isn’t really a hotel).

Galactic Starcruiser
Last year, we got a peek at a mocked-up version of part of the guest rooms. But, today we got another sneak peek at the rooms(!), with a special look at the bunk beds and “windows” looking out to a galaxy far, far away. You’ve GOT to check this out!
WOW. This has been quite the week for Disney news!

Disney World
One form of transportation from the airport that some Disney fans LOVE will be going away next year, Disney World guests are getting early park entry again soon, and MORE. Some of the news this week will impact your future Disney World or Disneyland plans. We know you’ve got a lot going on in your lives too, so today we’re breaking down the 4 BIGGEST pieces of Disney news that you might have missed this week.
The day that Marvel fans have been waiting for is finally here, and we’re ready to watch the two new episodes of Disney+’s new show, WandaVision!
The show follows Marvel heroes Wanda Maximoff (Scarlet Witch) and Vision as they get trapped in a suburban lifestyle, a LA 1950s sitcom. Based on the previews, we think this series is going to be pretty great, and we’re ready to celebrate the launch day. Disney’s ready to celebrate as well, because they’ve released some new WandaVision tees available for purchase on shopDisney!
Disney World has extended a bit of uplifting magic to three children’s hospitals in Central Florida.
Last year, Disney announced the company would reimagine the hospitals with familiar characters and playful features. Disney has given us a look a the interactive technology and art that have been installed at AdventHealth for Children, Arnold Palmer Hospital for Children, and Nemours Children’s Hospital.
If you’re a Disney World Annual Passholder, there’s some special, AP exclusive merchandise you can score right now!

Passholder Festival of the Arts MagicBand
At EPCOT’s International Festival of the Arts, there’s an AP exclusive MagicBand, an Annual Passholder shirt, and an AP Phone Case. Outside of the festival, we’ve also spotted a sparkly Annual Passholder Ear Headband. Now, we’ve gotten some more details about some more AP exclusive merchandise you’ll be able to find around the parks!
We already know about quite a few new Marvel shows and movies coming to Disney+ or theaters in the future. But, we expected that we’d potentially have to leave some of our favorite characters or actors behind.

The Avengers
One of those actors is Chris Evans, who played Captain America. Evans had previously noted that he would be hanging up his shield, and his character quite literally handed the shield to another character at the end of Avengers: Endgame. But, some sources are now saying that Chris Evens could be coming back to the Marvel Cinematic Universe!
When Gideon’s Bakehouse first welcomed guests as part of its soft opening at the end of 2020, we stepped into cookie heaven and brought you all our hot takes on their GIANT treats.

Gideon’s Bakehouse
Gideon’s temporarily closed shortly thereafter, however. But, the cookie conservatory opened once again today! So, we stopped by to take a look around and (of course) grab some treats.
