food IS a theme park
We’ve got great news if you’re going to Disney World this month or January 2024!
2024!
Disney World just extended the hours for three of the four theme parks, which means you get MORE time in the parks! [Read more…]
Okay, so your Disney World trip is booked, your travel is sorted out, you’ve got your park pass reservations, and you’ve made your advance dining reservations. You’re done with all the planning, right?

Well, no! That’s because things can change quickly in Disney World, especially when it comes to park hours. Yes, the park hours change OFTEN. We recently noticed some changes, too, that we need to tell you about, including an early closure at one park.
Your January 2024 Disney World trip is almost here!
EPCOT
Good job on booking your hotel and flight and for making those park pass reservations. While you’re counting down the days until you’re playing at Disney World, you’ll also want to make sure you’ve checked park hours — so let’s have a look!
We have big news if you’re heading to Disney World this month.
EPCOT Christmas Tree
Now you’ll have MORE time to experience Disney World’s holiday park snacks, decorations, and more! Disney has just EXTENDED their park hours for December!
Can you believe 2023 is almost over?!
Disney’s Hollywood Studios
It’s time to start preparing for the holiday season. You’ll want to know everything about the EPCOT Festival of the Holidays, Mickey’s Very Merry Christmas Party, and Jollywood Nights, as well as details about all the holiday snacks available in the parks. You’ll also want to know when the parks open and close so you can plan each day out carefully — well, we’ve got you covered on that!
There are a LOT of reasons to visit Disney World this October.
Strike up the band
At Magic Kingdom, the streets are decorated with pumpkins, scarecrows, and more for the Halloween season. There is a ton of Halloween merch and of course, Mickey’s Not-So-Scary Halloween Party will be happening on certain dates. At EPCOT, the Food and Wine Festival will be happening all month long. But now, there is one reason NOT to visit Disney World in October.
Summer is wrapping up in Disney World, but we’re heading into an entirely different busy season…Halloween!
Halloween is HERE!
Halloween celebrations usually kick off in mid-August, and this year, they’re starting on August 11th with Mickey’s Not-So-Scary Halloween Party at Magic Kingdom. So if you’re traveling to Disney World in the coming months, be prepared for some spooky season celebrations! But you’ll also need to be prepared for a PROBLEM you may not be expecting at Magic Kingdom.
A full day in Disney World is SO intense that we think “theme parking” should qualify as an Olympic sport.

Okay, maybe it’s not quite that bad, but still. You can train for months, walking laps around your neighborhood and hitting the gym, and STILL not be prepared for the heat that the Disney World parks bring…literally. You’re hitting 20,000 steps most days, sweating in the sometimes 100-degree heat, and partying from dusk till midnight — it’s a sport not made for the faint of heart. But if you’re a hardcore Disney parkgoer, then we’ve got a challenge for you: 18 hours straight in Disney World parks!
There’s a lot of strategy that goes into not just planning a Disney vacation, but how you experience a Disney vacation once you’re in the parks!
Main Street, U.S.A., at night
If you’re a morning person and planning to get to the parks as soon as they open for first-crack at the attractions while the lines are still low, then you want to know when the parks are open. But if you’re visiting Disney World from the West Coast or are a night owl, you might be looking to get your park experience in after the sun goes down, and you’ll need to know how late the parks stay open.
Have you decided to take a trip to Walt Disney World? Congratulations! The excitement starts the minute that you start planning your vacation.
Welcome to Disney World!
But where do you begin? Whether this is a first trip to Disney World or a repeat visit, it takes patience to research flights, transportation, hotels, dining, tickets, and more. We know that you have more questions than answers right now. You’re probably asking yourself all of these questions: Should I fly or drive to Orlando? Which Disney resort fits my touring plans? How does Disney transportation work? Where should we have a character meal? Which admission tickets do we need?
