food IS a theme park
A new experience is coming to EPCOT, and it’s coming with a heavy price tag.
EPCOT
If you’ve always wanted to dine inside Spaceship Earth, sip delectable cocktails, and munch on beautiful food, a new lounge is opening June 4th.
Is there anything as magical as getting to watch the fireworks at Magic Kingdom at the end of your day?
Fireworks in Magic Kingdom!
Well, what would you say to watching them from a private boat while floating on the lagoon with snacks in hand and zero crowds? Yeah, possible, and yes it’s a splurge — but if you’re looking for something extra special (and I mean really special), this might be one of the best-kept Disney World secrets. For $449, you can book a fireworks cruise that gives you front-row views of Magic Kingdom or EPCOT’s nighttime spectaculars—from the water. We recently did one and we’re already thinking about when to book it again. Let’s talk details.
Watching Happily Ever After to end your day at Magic Kingdom can be so magical!
Happily Ever After
Did you know that you could upgrade your fireworks viewing experience? While the Magic Kingdom hosts a variety of Firework Dessert Parties at Tomorrowland Terrace, you can get a private viewing experience from outside the park! It will cost you a pretty penny, but let me tell you, it is 100% worth it!!

Did you know that you can book a private photo shoot in Disney World?
PhotoPass Photographer

Ever since the reopening of the parks more than two years ago, we’ve slowly seen things return and reopen.
EPCOT’s World Showcase
We’ve had countless restaurant and resort reopenings, and more entertainment options and character hugs came back earlier this year. We’ve also seen the return of many “enchanting extras” like tours and hard-ticketed experiences. Now, three more of these offerings are coming back to EPCOT!
There are a LOT of changes happening these days in Disney World.
Top of the World — Villains Lair
Multiple hotels are getting updated, new rides are coming in the future, and some entertainment options are returning after a long hiatus. One of the changes we checked out recently is the newly reimagined Top of the World Lounge at Disney’s Bay Lake Tower. The new space has been rethemed with Disney Villains decor and new drinks and eats, but now there’s a special fireworks viewing option at the Villains Lair as well!
Whew! We woke up to some exciting Disney news today.
Outside of Droid Depot in Galaxy’s Edge
As you might have seen, Disney World officially reopened dining reservations to the public today with their new 60-day booking window. Well, your meals aren’t the ONLY plans you can get back to making today. Reservations for select experiences are now available too!
There has been a developing trend in recent years at the Disney theme parks…and it’s all about $$$. Magical upgrades and special separate-ticket events are becoming more and more prevalent.
Many of these offerings fall under Disney’s “Enchanting Extras Collection,” a growing array of unique dining options, dessert parties, and Disney VIP experiences, to name a few.
Fireworks Dessert Party
We totally get it — Disney World is WAY expensive no matter how you shake it, so it’s hard to try and justify shelling out your hard-earned cash for something ELSE on top of the oodles of money you’re already spending. But at least one of these options MAY make sense for you…and we’re going to take you through a few potential options that could make your trip that much more magical.
Our handy (and portable!) ebook guides make sure you get the best deals and can plan a vacation of a lifetime.
