food IS a theme park
Magic Kingdom is going through some serious changes right now!
Cinderella Castle
There are TWO new lounges currently being built in the park — one is a DVC Lounge in Frontierland and the other is the highly-anticipated Pirates Tavern in Adventureland. Disney hasn’t shared a ton about the Frontierland lounge, McKim’s Mile House, but we’ve been keeping an eye on the construction. And, all that waiting has paid off because McKim’s Mile House opens at Magic Kingdom today!
There’s a NEW lounge at Disney World, but you have to be a member to get in!

Disney World is getting some updates!
Magic Kingdom
There are some major updates around Disney World from the new Monster’s Inc. Land that’s in the works, the new Zootopia show coming soon, and DinoLand’s closure, there is so much going on! In Magic Kingdom, we found even more updates but these were a bit unexpected.
Everything is worth celebrating in Disney World!
Magic Kingdom
Big and small occasions are worthy of being celebrated if you’re at Disney World. Disney hands out “I’m Celebrating” pins to guests for pretty much any reason, and this week, we’re going to have to grab one to celebrate this small update at Magic Kingdom! Will you also be celebrating the return of a special treehouse at the Most Magical Place on Earth? Catch us climbing all over this tree this week.
Are you headed to Disney World this week, December 7th through December 14th?
Magic Kingdom
If you are, there is LOTS to do at the resort. Now that it’s the holidays, Disney is offering even more entertainment at Mickey’s Very Merry Christmas Party, Jollywood Nights, and the EPCOT Festival of the Holidays. Lots of rides are open and ready for you to enjoy, shows are available to see, and so much more. However, there are 11 closures that you will want to keep in mind while you’re visiting this coming week!
Sorry, Pop Century fans, but we have a bit of bad news for you.
Pop Century Resort

We here at DFB like to think of ourselves as Disney scientists.

Sometimes, it feels like there’s no end to the changes coming to Magic Kingdom!
Frontierland Shootin’ Arcade
And we’re not even talking about things like Villains Land or the two Cars attractions coming to Frontierland. No, for this one, let’s talk about the new lounge for Disney Vacation Club members and break it all down!
As the weather gets cooler in Florida, fewer people will find swimming an enticing activity.
Disney’s BoardWalk
It’s during the winter months that Disney will often close pools for refurbishment since there aren’t nearly as many people swimming when the temperatures are cooler. As we’re getting into the last months of the year, we’re starting to see hotel pools close, including one that will be closed until late December.
