Harmonious at EPCOT
MagicBand+ has officially dropped in Disney World and online (after a brief accidental mishap where the bands were placed on the shelves for sale) and we’ve scooped one up to see exactly what this new technology is all about. We had seen some previews and in-person interactions here and there, but now that the MagicBand+ has made its official debut, we’re testing all the new features. And now, it’s time to see some of those features in action because we’re sharing how MagicBand+ interacts with EPCOT’s fireworks show, Harmonious!
When it comes to things at Disney World, change is inevitable.

Things close, new rides open, new snacks arrive, and restaurant menus are constantly getting updated. Speaking of which, an EPCOT restaurant just recently had quite a few changes on its menu.

What’s better than a frozen DOLE Whip on a blistering hot day in Disney World? Nothing, that’s what.
AAAAHHH… DOLE Whip!
DOLE Whip is one of the most iconic Disney desserts ever, with its own full history and even its own merch! You probably know about the classic OG Pineapple DOLE Whip, which is the flavor most people think of when they think of DOLE Whip, but there are actually a LOT of flavor options these days. There are also a LOT of places to grab a DOLE Whip in and outside of the parks, so let’s break down where you can get EVERY DOLE Whip in Disney World!
EPCOT’s 2022 Food & Wine Festival is in full swing right now, and we’ve had a great time trying out ALL of the eats and deciding which ones are the BEST. From Mimosa Flights to Piña Colada Funnel Cakes, Fried Cheese to Filet Mignon, there’s a LOT to love about this EPCOT festival. But there are a couple of not-so-great things about the festival as well.

One thing we’ve noticed as we taste our way around the festival is that many of the food booths and menu items are the same as last year, but the prices are DIFFERENT. Has EPCOT’s Food & Wine Festival gotten MORE expensive this year? We did the math, and we have the answer. [Read more…]
Let’s stroll over to EPCOT to get a look at the latest updates around the park!
EPCOT
Of course, the 2022 EPCOT Food & Wine Festival is going on. But there’s so much more happening right now, beyond the food and wine — construction, new merchandise, and more! So, let’s take a look at what’s new in EPCOT!
Parts of EPCOT look a bit like a maze right now, with a LOT of walls up to hide construction sites. This park is in the middle of a major (we’re talking years-long) transformation, which has already brought us 2 new rides, a few new restaurants, and an extension of the France pavilion in World Showcase. Now, we’ve got an update about another EPCOT project that’s currently in the works!

Journey of Water — Inspired by Moana is a walk-through attraction coming to the World Nature section of EPCOT. This is the big construction site that you’ll see right behind Spaceship Earth. We’ve seen some concept art for this attraction, and we’ve been tracking the project’s progress, which you can see from the EPCOT Monorail. But now Disney has released NEW concept art! [Read more…]
While the saga of disappearing and reappearing Disney World snacks continues due to supply issues, Disney World restaurants have had a busy week, too.
Troll Horns have gone missing from Norway
For starters, we just got a first look at the changes we can expect when Victoria & Albert’s reopens at Disney’s Grand Floridian Resort & Spa. But we also saw MORE restaurant menu updates THROUGHOUT the resort, so let’s see what changed this week!
