Rivers of America Refurb
Disney World is ramping up to celebrate its 50th anniversary and sprucing up the place a bit. We’re listing every ride, restaurant, and resort that will be closed for refurbishments between February 1st through February 7th, 2021.
Disney World will often close attractions, restaurants, or resorts for refurbishments. Some closures are scheduled in advance while others are unexpected and due to maintenance issues or other reasons.

We’ve seen the crowds at Disney World get a little bigger over the past few months, and we now know that capacity at the parks increased to 35 percent just before the holidays.

But how does that compare to New Year’s Eve’s past? Say 2019? Well, we dug into our photo archives to compare, and BOY, things are CRAZY different (we already knew that but seeing pics really puts it into perspective).
Are you counting down the minutes until 2020 ends?
New Years Ears
We’ve been celebrating today at Disney World by eating all the delicious New Year’s treats and checking out the 2021 merchandise. There are special offerings at the resorts, but one thing is missing — the fireworks! Disney announced a few weeks ago that they wouldn’t be shooting off fireworks in their parks for the holiday, but that doesn’t mean we have to go without Disney World fireworks completely.
Happy New Year’s Eve! It’s the end of 2020!
New Year’s Eve in Magic Kingdom
We’re celebrating by trying ALL the New Year’s treats in Disney World. Cupcakes, Dole Whip floats, chocolate mousse, we’re reviewing it all, and man has today been delicious! However, during our expedition to find all the special snacks, we found one that we can’t eat, even though we really want to!
