food IS a theme park
Things are happening so fast with The Walt Disney Company that it may make keeping up with all the news that has happened recently difficult. Between getting ready to switch CEOs and all the big changes happening in Disney World and Disneyland, there are a lot of updates to keep up with.

This week, Disney made some pretty big announcements, too. We’re going to break down the four biggest announcements of the week to make sure you’re kept in the loop.
If there’s a new snack at Disneyland, you can best believe we’re running over to try it!
Mini Corn Dogs
Disneyland Park is home to MANY tasty treats, and we’re always excited when it adds to its pantheon of interesting theme park food. Frontierland’s Golden Horseshoe is an underappreciated quick-service restaurant that serves some of those classic eats with a menu that gets shaken up quite often. It’s latest iteration features a classic Disney treat with a twist, and it’s safe to say we have some thoughts…
We have an awesome sneak peek at the Avengers Campus expansion! Avengers Campus in Disney California Adventure is going to double in size with two new rides.

The expansion is currently under construction and is expected to open in 2027. They’re already making good progress on the land, according to a new teaser!
If you’ve been to Disneyland multiple times, you might wonder if there’s something new you can do that you haven’t done before. That means you’ve already seen some of the NEW things to see at Disneyland, like the Walt Disney animatronic and 70th Anniversary Celebration entertainment, along with some of the park’s newer offerings.

However, a new tour is guaranteed to not only keep you entertained but also teach you more about the history of Disneyland. So if you’re interested in the Women Who Make Magic tour, we’ve got all the details!
Disneyland After Dark events aren’t just a lot of fun, they’re also a way to get to do some EXLUSIVE things in Disneyland that you can’t normally do with a regular day ticket. We’re talking unique character meet and greets, fun activities, exclusive photo ops, and more.

However, our FAVORITE part of these events is that Disney also breaks out some exclusive snacks. Well, Disney just revealed a first look at the new snacks coming to its NEW Disneyland After Dark event, 70 Years of Favorites. Warning: some of these snacks might have you feeling a little nostalgic.
Who is ready to eat and drink their way around Disney California Adventure?!
Disney California Adventure Food and Wine Festival
The Disney California Adventure Food and Wine Festival kicks off on March 6th and runs through April 27th. We can’t wait to eat and drink our way around this festival, and we’re getting closer to finally doing that because Disney just dropped the FULL menus for all of this year’s Food and Wine Festival booths!
One of our favorite things to do in Disneyland is go to Anaheim Ducks Day, a special event that celebrates the Anaheim Ducks Hockey Club.
It’s Anaheim Ducks Day!
This special event only happens once each year, and this year, it’s happening TODAY. Anaheim Ducks Day brings special photo ops, exclusive merchandise, a chance to meet some of the players, and special snacks! Well, we are AT Disney California Adventure RIGHT NOW, experiencing all that this year’s Anaheim Ducks Day has to offer. Let’s go, Ducks!
There’s always so much happening in Disney Parks that sometimes it’s hard to keep track of it all. Don’t worry — that’s why we’re here! We stay up to date on everything you need to know to have the best Disney vacation ever.
Flower and Garden Festival is almost here!
This past week brought huge food announcements along with a park hopping rule change, and we’re breaking it down right here at DFB.
Disneyland Resort, just like Disney World, is full of construction right now, and practically every time we step into the park, we notice something new that’s happening or an update on a project underway.
Disney California Adventure
If you’ve stepped into Disney California Adventure for the past few years, you may have noticed that the old Tower of Terror FastPass kiosk still exists, though it is not used for much. The FastPass theming was done away with many years ago, and Tower of Terror was changed to Guardians of the Galaxy – Mission: BREAKOUT! in 2017. The stand has remained unused for years. However, that’s all changing now!
It’s always a little sad when Disney closes a ride, even if it means something bigger and better is coming in its place. We’ll admit we were a little sad when Disney revealed it would close Monsters, Inc. Mike & Sulley to the Rescue in Disney California Adventure to make way for a new Avatar land.
Mike in Disney California Adventure (he doesn’t move)
Monsters, Inc. Mike & Sulley to the Rescue was supposed to close early this year, but it seems like Disney has changed its mind. The ride will STILL close, but it’s now not set to close until 2027. So Mike and Sulley have just received a temporary reprieve.
