food IS a theme park
After months of questions, we FINALLY know what’s coming to Disney’s BoardWalk Resort.
Disney’s BoardWalk Construction
After what felt like an eternity of sitting vacant, big changes are finally coming to some long-abandoned spaces at the popular Deluxe Tier Disney World Resort.
We go to Disney World every day. Yep, we’re living the dream. A lot of what we do, though, is search for new things, stuff we haven’t seen on previous days. That’s how we keep you updated on everything, after all.

So what kind of things are we looking for? Well, we’re always on the lookout for new merchandise (so you can be on the lookout for those perfect souvenir finds for your next visit), but we also keep an eye on construction and other updates in the parks and at the hotels. Most recently, we visited seven Disney World parks and hotels, and we have a ton of new things to share with you as a result. So let’s get started!
The day you’ve been waiting for is almost here. LEVEL99 in Disney Springs, an entirely new experience for Disney World’s shopping and dining district, is set to open on June 29th.

EDITOR’S UPDATE 5/30/26: PLEASE BE AWARE that Bluey’s Wild World requires a Virtual Queue to access through June 1st! Starting June 2nd, a traditional standby line will be available.
Bluey has finally arrived at Disney World, and she’s brought a Virtual Queue with her!

The park’s Conservation Station is now home to Bluey’s Wild World, where guests can play and dance with both Bingo and Bluey! Here they can also take photos with Bluey, Bingo, and more, and play games like keepy uppy!
If you’re heading to Hollywood Studios this June, there are some major changes to be excited for!
Rock ‘n’ Roller Coaster Starring The Muppets
From newly reopened attractions to special events, Hollywood Studios has a lot more than construction going on next month.
It’s kinda’ wild how Disney World has just been opening up things early ahead of their official opening dates, but we’re not complaining!
Walt Disney Studios
So May 26th is a HUGE day in Disney World, with a lot of things scheduled to open on that day, which could be why they’re opening a little earlier just to prevent some sheer chaos. So we’ve already seen Soarin’ Across America open early in EPCOT, but before that, The Walt Disney Studios opened up its new courtyard, and we were STUNNED. There are so many great details in this new land, and we’re going to point them out for you.
A new version of an old favorite is about to become a major rope drop draw at EPCOT.

Since it opened back in 2005, Soarin’ has been one of EPCOT’s most popular rides, both in its Over California and Around the World variations. However, the ride’s latest incarnation might end up being its most popular of all… and certainly its most patriotic.
When it comes to dining, it’s no secret that Walt Disney World has a lot of options.
Chicken anyone?
Spread across the property’s 4 theme parks, 20+ hotels, and the Disney Springs district, there are all kinds of eateries.
There are so many fun and unique snacks to grab at Disney World, especially at Disney Springs.

A brand new snack has just arrived at Sunshine Churros, so we went to review it to see if it was worth a stop on your Disney Springs day!
Disney World is in a period of transition, including construction on new lands, refurbishments of old favorites, and some new dining hotspots!
Fruity Pebbles Classic Shake
Over the past year, Disney has opened some majorly popular spots, including GEO-82 (the Spaceship Earth-themed lounge at EPCOT), The Beak and Barrel (the Pirates of the Caribbean-themed bar at the Magic Kingdom), and The Perch (the gilded Victorian-themed lobby bar at the Grand Floridian).
Each of these new lounges opened to positive reviews and heavy demand, and still draw big crowds (though reservations for GEO-82 and Beak and Barrel are slightly easier to come by). Now, a new crop of spots have opened at Disney World, with several more on the way.
