A popular Disney World attraction has finally reopened!
We have been eagerly awaiting the reopening of this Magic Kingdom ride, and now it’s BACK!
There are many perks to staying at a Disney World hotel — you’re close to the parks, you get complimentary transportation, and you can get Early Entry into every single one of the theme parks on every day of your trip.
However, if you choose to splurge and stay at a Disney World Deluxe Hotel, you get even MORE perks. One of those is Extended Evening Hours in select parks on certain days. As the year progresses, Magic Kingdom often hosts fewer Extended Evening Hours nights due to its holiday after-hours events, such as Mickey’s Not-So-Scary Halloween Party. We’ve got an update, though — Extended Evening Hours will return to this park in September!
Celebrities are just like us…well, they’re just like us if we had all that money, fame, and the ability to do what we want when we want. But like us, they do love Disney World, and they visit often.
Neil Patrick Harris has been to EPCOT so often that he has his own table at La Cava del Tequila. Josh Gad has been spotted visiting the parks a few times, too. Even Charlize Theron and Sydney Sweeney have been spotted in Disney World. Jason Kelce and his family are there A LOT. Well, now, another celebrity recently had some fun in the parks.
The Disney Parks are certainly always evolving, and “The Most Magical Place On Earth” is about to undergo a pretty big change!
Disney Starlight: Dream the Night Away is Magic Kingdom’s newest nighttime parade, and is set to debut at the theme park on July 20th, 2025. This new parade will use “the latest technology to tell new stories about the characters you love” in a spectacle inspired by other Disney nighttime parades like the Main Street Electrical Parade and SpectroMagic. Featuring lively Disney music, live performers, and vibrant floats carrying characters like Tinker Bell, Peter Pan, Isabella from Encanto, Moana, the Disney Princesses, and so much more, this new parade will be a bit different from the Magic Kingdom parades of old — creating TWO major changes.
Fourth of July is right around the corner, and we don’t only have special fireworks shows in Magic Kingdom and EPCOT to look forward to!
Disney just confirmed that there are NEW snacks coming to Disney World that you can only get for a limited time around the holiday. If you’ll be in the parks in/around the holiday, be sure to check out these offerings and see which one(s) are worth the stop!
Is it just us, or is EVERYTHING under construction in Disney World? Okay, that’s a bit of an overstatement, but seriously, a lot is going on right now.
In EPCOT, Test Track is getting ready to reopen after an extended closure and retheming. Big Thunder Mountain Railroad is getting an overhaul in Magic Kingdom, while Frontierland is getting a Cars expansion. PLUS, that park is getting a new Villains Land. Disney’s Hollywood Studios is in the progress of creating a new Monsters, Inc. land and converting Rock ‘n’ Roller Coaster into a Muppets ride. In the meantime, Disney also just announced that two popular rides will soon be temporarily closing.
A popular Disney World ride has finally made its return! We don’t want to hear that you didn’t notice it was gone, WE NOTICED!

Magic Kingdom
The Magic Kingdom is sort of looking like itself again (hurry up, Big Thunder), as a long-awaited ride has finally reopened! In a year that has been faced with Disney World ride closures, we needed this.
Major changes are happening all around Disney World right now!
DinoLand U.S.A. is being transformed into Pueblo Esperanza, and over at Magic Kingdom, new Villains Land and Cars attractions are coming, too. Magic Kingdom is about to look a whole lot different, and Disney just shared the opening date for a new shop coming to Frontierland!
Disney World is going through some SERIOUS changes right now.
At Animal Kingdom, DinoLand U.S.A. is being transformed into Pueblo Esperanza, and over at Magic Kingdom, new Villains Land and Cars attractions are coming. Disney previously announced that Buzz Lightyear’s Space Ranger Spin would be closing for updates in Magic Kingdom — and now we know that closure is coming on August 4th, 2025.
In 2023, Disney World added a LONG-AWAITED character to the Magic Kingdom’s Haunted Mansion. The only problem? His placement!
The Hatbox Ghost is arguably the most famous single animatronic in Disney history, mainly due to its urban legend status. The figure, which features an effect where the character’s head would “disappear” and then “reappear” inside the hatbox he was holding, had been very briefly included in the original Disneyland Haunted Mansion’s attic during soft opening previews as well as some marketing materials. However, by the time the attraction opened to the general public, the figure was nowhere to be seen.
