food IS a theme park
If you have a Disney World vacation coming up, your days at Magic Kingdom are going to look very differently from what you were expecting!
Magic Kingdom
Starting on January 28th, changes will be hitting the “Let The Magic Begin” welcome show, “Mickey’s Magical Friendship Faire”, AND Magic Kingdom’s nighttime spectacular, “Happily Ever After.” Let’s take a look at the details!
If you’re visiting Disney World this week, you’re in for a special surprise.
Beautiful Cinderella Castle
Sometimes Disney surprises us a lot — they do things we never expected, show us things we never thought we’d see in the parks, or introduce us to a little extra pixie dust that can change our lives! There are times you walk into a park day and discover you get something extra special, or you can follow DFB and we’ll tell you when special events are happening — like the Thunderbirds flying over Magic Kingdom this Thursday!
Fireworks have FINALLY returned to Disney World!

When the parks reopened back in July of 2020, the fireworks shows did not return in order to avoid crowds from forming. We missed ending our day in Magic Kingdom with Happily Ever After, but now, it’s BACK!! Tonight was the first time we’ve seen the nighttime spectacular in over a YEAR and it did NOT disappoint! Take a look!
You may have noticed that Disney dropped a lot of BIG news today about their 50th Anniversary celebration, starting October 1st!
Disney has added special touches to Cinderella Castle for the 50th anniversary!
Some of what we know about this celebration is fairly standard (although still exciting), like the Cinderella Castle makeover and new outfits for the Disney characters! But a few of the announcements were kinda unexpected!
When it comes to Disney World rides, not all seats are created equal.
Big Thunder Mountain
The attraction vehicles are designed to give guests a good experience from any seat. That doesn’t mean that every seat is the best seat. Some seats offer a better view and others offer a smoother ride. You might notice that the back row of Pirates of the Caribbean is cozier and feels a bit more private than the crowded middle seat! And, thrill-seekers love to sit in the front row of Space Mountain to get the total illusion of bolting through space. It takes a few rides on each attraction before you can determine which seat has the coolest experience. Most of the time, you only have one chance to ride Seven Dwarf’s Mine Train during your vacation so you gotta make it count! To help you out, we’re breaking down the BEST and WORST places to be seated at each attraction in the Magic Kingdom!
Our handy (and portable!) ebook guides make sure you get the best deals and can plan a vacation of a lifetime.
