food IS a theme park
There’s a NEW attraction overhaul coming to Disney World!
Soarin’ Around the World
Soarin’ Around the World is getting a patriotic makeover for the 250th birthday of the U.S.A., changing into Soarin’ Across America. Disney had already shared some details about the new version of the ride, but now we know when it will debut.
In case you’ve missed it, Harry Styles just came out with a new album, and we’re obsessed. We’re so obsessed that we made an entire merch line that combines our two favorite things – Harry Styles and Disney!
Monorail All The Time Crop Tee
This collection is a playful nod to the dreamy, swirly vibes of Harry’s new album… but make it Disney transportation. Get ready to Monorail all the time. Skyliner, occasionally.
The Disney Parks are never stagnant, and some sort of change is always ongoing. Unfortunately, those changes often include the temporary (and permanent) closures of popular rides.
Rock ‘n’ Roller Coaster
If you’re planning a Disney trip in 2026, you need to be aware that BOTH the Disneyland Resort and the Walt Disney World Resort are going to see a bunch of closures. Between refurbishments, re-themes, seasonal overlays, and a few permanent closures tied to major expansions, several rides across Disney World and the Disneyland Resort will impact your 2026 vacation.
The Japan Pavilion at EPCOT has always been a hidden gem, and right now it’s having a serious moment.
Japan Pavilion
If you haven’t been to World Showcase lately, you might not know that the Japan Pavilion has picked up some really fun offerings that Disney Adults are absolutely running with. From collectible machines to personalized keepsakes, there are a couple of trends taking off that we think are worth knowing about before your next trip. Let’s break it down!
Who wouldn’t love spending more time in a Disney World park at night? That’s exactly what an After Hours Event will get you, for a price, of course!
Guardians of the Galaxy: Cosmic Rewind
With prices ranging from $155 to $179, you can head to EPCOT on select nights from now until September 24th, 2026. The capacity for these events is limited; you will have easy access to select park attractions — like the very popular Guardians of the Galaxy: Cosmic Rewind. And, if you’re looking to ride this attraction during After Hours, this is the BEST time to do it.
There are all KINDS of new things to eat at EPCOT right now!

The International Flower & Garden Festival kicked off recently with an array of food booths and new eats and drinks, but now, a World Showcase restaurant is getting a seasonal spring menu. That’s right, we’re getting some NEW flavors at Takumi-Tei in the Japan Pavilion!
If you spot us in the Disney World parks, chances are we’ll be sporting a Loungefly backpack.
We love our Loungeflys!
These bags might be tiny, but they are mighty! We love how compact they are, but they’re still large enough to hold everything you might need for your Disney World day — even your emotional support water bottle. If you’re in the market for a new Loungefly for your upcoming trip, we’ve rounded up the BEST backpacks for each Disney World park below.
Dining around the world in EPCOT is a thing, and it’s something we ALL love to do. Now, we’ve been to EVERY restaurant in EPCOT, and we have our favorites, but it’s just so cool to be able to try out all these international flavors in one place, right?
Nine Dragons Restaurant
Anyway, we’re heading to China for our latest dining adventure, and there’s one restaurant that we don’t really talk about much, but maybe we should. That’s Nine Dragons Restaurant. Well, we recently visited Nine Dragons to see if it served up Chinese food that’s better than what we would normally order from DoorDash. [Read more…]
If we asked you what our favorite bar in EPCOT was, you’d probably know the answer because it’s a LOT of folks’ favorite bar (like, even celebrities love it, too). That bar is La Cava del Tequila, and we keep coming back again and again to sip on some old favorites and try some new drinks.
New drink in Mexico!
So when we learned about a new margarita that had just dropped at La Cava, we got in line ASAP to order it. But…how does this new margarita fare in a menu that’s already FULL of standout margaritas? Well, let’s discuss!
