There are LOTS of construction walls up in Disney World right now! You will find walls up around Pueblo Esperanza in Disney’s Animal Kingdom, Piston Peak National Park in Magic Kingdom, the new Monsters, Inc. land in Disney’s Hollywood Studios, and various other spots where construction is happening in Disney World. There are also some walls up in Toy Story Land in Disney’s Hollywood Studios around what has been rumored to be a new snack stand, and today, we got a FIRST LOOK at this new spot!

Something has “popped” up in Hollywood Studios!

We have been keeping a close eye on this spot, curious about what would pop up. Well, now we have our first look at the new snack stand that has “popped” up over the top of the construction wall! Disney hasn’t officially confirmed that it is a new snack stand yet, but based on what we are seeing, we are pretty confident it will eventually be a snack stand.

Things are really shaking up at Disney’s Hollywood Studios. This summer, Muppets Courtyard closed to make way for construction that will eventually become a brand new Monsters, Inc. land.

Then there’s the construction at Animation Courtyard, which just closed recently. Well, a LOT has been going on behind those construction walls, but we’ve only been able to barely get a look at what’s been happening behind those walls as the area transforms into The Walt Disney Studios. Now, though, we’ve got some new overhead shots of the area to get a closer look at the construction!

The Disney Cruise Line is in the process of expanding the entire fleet, and it’s left many Disney fans wondering… why? While we love the cruise line, we didn’t see a ton of demand online for more ships! That being said, Disney is moving forward with the new additions.

The cruise line has expanded quite a bit over the last several years, thanks to the addition of new ships like the Disney Treasure and the upcoming Disney Destiny. The Disney Destiny is making its inaugural sailing in November 2025, and we are one step closer to seeing this major addition hit the open seas. Let’s check out the exciting new update together!

3 CHANGES Hit Disney’s Grand Floridian Hotel

By 2 Comments

Disney’s Grand Floridian Resort & Spa is already starting to look much different. Not only is Disney hard at work building a brand-new bar in the hotel’s lobby, but the hotel is also undergoing quite a few other changes. And one of these changes was just revealed, and we have to say, it is GORGEOUS! 

A new addition at Disney’s Grand Floridian

If you have walked through the Grand Floridian’s lobby recently, you have probably spotted one of the many construction walls or tarps that are currently adorning the lobby. You will notice lots of walls up in the lobby around the location of the new bar, as well as around what used to be the Garden View Tea Room (but we haven’t seen it open for a long time). About a month ago, we also spotted more scrim and walls up at the staircases off the lobby. Well, we stopped by on September 18th and noticed a STUNNING new addition to the staircase.
