food IS a theme park
EPCOT is undergoing a HUGE transformation that includes new rides, restaurants, neighborhoods, and more.
Connections Café construction
Late last year, Disney announced another NEW restaurant coming to the park as part of the transformation, and now we have even MORE details about what we can expect from the upcoming eatery!
Many things have been returning to Disney World over the past several months, like restaurants, entertainment, character meet and greets, and more.
The Festival of Fantasy Parade is BACK!
Select events are also starting to come back, like Moonlight Magic. The first Moonlight Magic event returned to EPCOT last night for Disney Vacation Club Members, so come with us to check it out!
Is there anything better than a sweet treat inspired by your favorite Disney character? Hard to say.
Pluto Petit Cake
We consider ourselves EXPERTS in the Disney treat arena so we were pretty pumped to see a new Fab Five-inspired dessert in EPCOT today. And it’s not Mickey who’s inspiring these unique and (Spoiler alert!) delicious flavors…it’s Pluto, his pup!
We’re a little over two weeks into the 2022 EPCOT Flower & Garden Festival, but that hasn’t stopped us from visiting again and again to experience everything the fest has to offer!
EPCOT Flower & Garden Festival
Our readers have started weighing in on their favorite festival snacks, and we’ve even eaten our way to a prize! But, if there’s one thing that always keeps us coming back to the Flower & Garden Festival for more, it’s all the merchandise — and now, one popular festival item is available online!
🛑 STOP. 🛑 You’re thinking of going to visit Disney World in 2022, huh? Well before you put on those Minnie ears and stroll right down the middle of Main Street, U.S.A., or scream your heart out on Slinky Dog Dash, there are some things you NEED to know.
Are you ready to GO?!
There’s a LOT to look forward to in Disney World this year. We’ve been holding out for a new rollercoaster for a while now and that’s not all! Disney World’s 50th Anniversary celebration started on October 1st of 2021, but the party doesn’t show any signs of stopping any time soon. In fact, the 50th Anniversary celebration will run all the way through 2022 into the spring of 2023. With such a long run-time, it’s easy to forget what’s going on with the 50th Anniversary, so we put together a list of ALL our tips, tricks, and guides to help you navigate Disney World in 2022.
It’s bracket season, y’all! We’ve got our March Madness brackets all filled out, and we’re ready for all the victories, upsets, and maybe even some Cinderella stories along the way. But right now, we’re talking about a very DIFFERENT kind of bracket, and it’s possibly even MORE fun than the basketball one.
EPCOT International Flower and Garden Festival
Today, we’re kicking off the official 2022 EPCOT Flower & Garden Festival Madness! We’ve got a great lineup of eats, treats, and drinks, all competing against each other to see which one ends up on TOP. To vote for your favorites along the way, follow us on Instagram and check our stories each day. That’s where the match-ups will take place, and we’ll report on the results here on the blog! We’ve already got the results in for part of Round 1, so let’s take a look at which snacks emerged victorious. [Read more…]
With the 2022 Flower and Garden Festival in full swing, it’s been a busy few weeks in EPCOT!
Spaceship Earth
A popular attraction closed in EPCOT last week, and we also noticed the arrival of Spring Break crowds. This week we tried some plant-based dishes and did some shopping too — where we found a (GASP!) $2,700 mask! Come along with us.
If eating isn’t enough for you at the 2022 EPCOT Flower and Garden Festival (but like, who are you??), there are also fun activities to try!
It’s time for the 2022 EPCOT Flower and Garden Festival!
Check out all the festival topiaries, take a walk through Bambi’s Butterfly House, or play a game and win a prize! Spike the Bee’s Pollen-Nation Exploration scavenger hunt is back in EPCOT this year, and recently we noted that the official prize for completing the hunt wasn’t available yet. But today we noticed a change, and we’re excited to finally check out the official NEW prizes!
You might think that trying to eat at Disney World with dietary restrictions would be super difficult, but there are a TON more options now for all kinds of diets!
Plant-based soft serve in Disney World
There are a lot of items that are gluten free, as well as those that are plant-based, and some vegetarian options. Actually — there’s a whole BOOTH at this year’s EPCOT Flower and Garden Festival that serves plant-based food! But, if you’re looking for some plant-based food that’s not just temporarily in EPCOT, we just tried out 2 dishes over at Sunshine Seasons and are here to give you our honest review!
Magic Shots are a fun way to make your PhotoPass pictures in Disney World, well, more magical.
PhotoPass Photographer
A Magic Shot is when a PhotoPass photographer adds something extra to your picture, like a Disney character or special effect! We’ve seen some really fun ones at Disney World, like one that makes it look like you have fairy wings sprouting from your back and another that shows you hanging out with the Hitchhiking Ghosts from Haunted Mansion. Now, there’s a special HOLIDAY Magic Shot — but it’s only here for a limited time!
Our handy (and portable!) ebook guides make sure you get the best deals and can plan a vacation of a lifetime.
