food IS a theme park
Disney World is constantly changing!

Sometimes we see those changes coming and sometimes we don’t. Last month, a few things definitely caught us off guard. Here are the three most unexpected things that happened in Disney World in March!
Disney has released some pretty unique designs of Minnie ears recently.
Wall of Ears!!!
We’ve recently seen some light-up balloon ears, and ears with a bow that reminded us of an 80s prom dress. Well, the latest design of Minnie ears we spotted in Magic Kingdom today is going for a more traditional design in comparison to the styles we’ve seen recently.
The shops on Main Street, U.S.A. are playing musical chairs!
Main Street, U.S.A.
As Walt Disney World prepares for its 50th anniversary celebration, we’ve seen all kinds of work being done around Magic Kingdom. But on Main Street, U.S.A., some spring cleaning is taking place, too! Main Street Confectionery just closed for a months-long refurbishment — and now, another shop has closed, too.
We’re a little over six months away from the beginning of the Walt Disney World 50th Anniversary celebrations, and we’ve been seeing quite a few attractions close for refurbishment leading up to the festivities.
Preparations are underway for the 50th Anniversary celebrations!
Over at Magic Kingdom, Cinderella Castle has been getting some TLC with a new paint job, some fixes to the stage area, and even some new decorations. We’ve also seen a few rides undergo maintenance such as Mad Tea Party and Peter Pan’s Flight. And, the next item on Disney’s punch list is here and it involves the temporary closure of one of the sweetest shops in the park.
From Minnie Ears to Marvel hats, headgear is an important accessory in Disney World.
Pearl Minnie Ears
For all the latest fashions, we make a beeline for The Chapeau in Magic Kingdom, but now it looks like Disney is shaking things up, because we found a TON of merch from the hat shop at ANOTHER store on Main Street, U.S.A.!
This week the Disney Parks TikTok posted a video highlighting the amazing women who have earned a coveted window on Main Street, U.S.A, and thanked them for their contribution!
Roy E. Disney and Family Windows
These women have worked in roles that spanned from designing costumes for Cast Members to bringing the Enchanted Tiki Room birds to life. Without them, our park experience would be completely different!
Welcome back to Magic Kingdom!
Cinderella Castle
We took a quick trip around the park so we could let YOU know what’s new with the food, merchandise, and more. Let’s take a look!
Disney World is the Most Magical Place on Earth, but not everything always goes perfectly.
Who else is ready to walk right down the middle of Main Street, U.S.A.?
Sometimes rides break down or have to be evacuated. And today we spotted something unusual right on Main Street, U.S.A. in Magic Kingdom — one of the windows on Main Street was actually broken.
It might still be winter, but spring is in the air in Disney World!
Magic Kingdom
Like, literally. Look up along Main Street, U.S.A. in Magic Kingdom and you’ll see that some of the balloons are sporting a decidedly springy look!
At the end of January, the Sorcerers of the Magic Kingdom experience closed indefinitely.
Main Street Firehouse
Right after the unique experience came to a halt, the Fire Station on Main Street, U.S.A. closed. It used to house the recruitment center for Sorcerers of the Magic Kingdom, and after being closed for weeks, it has officially reopened!
