food IS a theme park
It’s time to change out that 2018 calendar for a 2019, and we hope you’ve all got big Disney Parks (and Disney dining!!) plans for the coming year! Us? We’re resolving to eat more cupcakes (why not?!), drink more funky milkshakes, and bring you every tasty bit of news we can from the Disney Parks! But if you’re struggling with your New Year’s resolutions, may we suggest Disney resolutions?
We resolve to see more of this!
It’s no small thing turning the calendar from one year to the next, and with 2019 arriving at warp speed, we got to thinking about all the awesome eats from 2018 that we’d want to munch on as we ring in the new year.
Nothing says Walt Disney World quite as much as dining with fairy tale characters, and the brand new Storybook Dining experience in Artist Point at Disney’s Wilderness Lodge Resort is one such dreamy meal.
Happy New Year, Snow White!
Want to ring in the New Year with some fabulous Irish food and entertainment? Then reserve your seat at Raglan Road Irish Pub and Restaurant in Walt Disney World’s Disney Springs!

The “Epic New Year’s Eve” Celebration lets guests celebrate twice — first for the Irish New Year at 7PM, then for the countdown to midnight in central Florida!
OK, it’s no secret that Disney World is a BUSY place during the holiday season, and New Year’s Eve is a MADHOUSE. There are plenty of events happening already, but most of them are already sold out…or well on their way to being sold out.
Happily Ever After
But you’re in luck! Today we’ve got a new New Year’s Eve bash to add to the agenda, and it sounds like a great one! Say hello to the Fort Wilderness New Year’s Eve Beach Dessert Party!
You might not be ready yet to start humming Jingle Bells just yet, but the Holidays at Walt Disney World are on their way… and frankly, we love it! It’s the most wonderful time of the year to visit (even with the massive crowds!), and there are endless holiday-themed experiences to make your holidays even brighter!
Magic Kingdom Holiday Style
Disney World does the holidays right — from decor to events to merchandise and more!
And we don’t want you to miss out on any of the top draws. So let’s take a look our list of the 26 Must-do Disney Holiday Events — and Eats! — to celebrate this season at Walt Disney World! [Read more…]
You’re invited to ring in 2018 with an extra-special version of Mickey’s Backyard BBQ at Fort Wilderness Campground… it’s Mickey’s New Year’s Eve BBQ!!
Mickey’s Backyard BBQ sign
Mickey, Minnie, Chip, and Dale will be on hand for the big celebration. But they’re not the only friends… a DJ and bluegrass musicians will join in the fun, too! A video feed of Times Square will allow everyone to view the happenings in the Big Apple, but guests won’t envy watching the folks near the traditional ball drop, as they’ll be viewing the Magic Kingdom New Year’s Fireworks from a special viewing area (and adults can enjoy champagne along with the show!). [Read more…]
Even if it’s not exactly the right moment to start the Big Countdown to ring in 2018, it IS — believe it or not — time to start making your plans for New Year’s Eve in Walt Disney World!
View of Fireworks from the Contemporary
And Disney’s Contemporary Resort will be hosting THREE celebrations, which will all open for booking on July 11th.
Dining, dancing, music, and booze will all be components of Disney Countdown to Midnight in the Fantasia Ballroom. A band, DJ, and Mickey and Minnie will all join in the party, and guests will ring in 2018 viewing the Magic Kingdom New Year’s Fireworks and raising a glass of bubbly.
