food IS a theme park
SO many exciting things are happening in Disney World soon!
Guardians of the Galaxy: Cosmic Rewind
Guardians of the Galaxy: Cosmic Rewind is about to open up, EPCOT’s Food and Wine Festival will be here before we know it, and the Barber Shop is finally going to reopen in Magic Kingdom. So, with all of this excitement, are the parks getting more crowded? Let’s take a look at the average wait times from this week in Disney World to find out!
How long would you wait in line for your favorite ride in Disney World?
Slinky Dog Dash
30 minutes? An hour? 3 hours? We’re sure the answer varies for most people, but it also depends on what ride is your favorite. If you LOVE Barnstormer, you most likely won’t have to endure that outdoor queue for very long. But, if you’re a Rise of the Resistance fan…you’re probably going to be waiting for a while! However, wait times have been changing recently in Disney World, so let’s take a look at what they were like this week!
Happy Holidays, folks! Wait…but it’s still May, right? RIGHT?! Yes, don’t worry, you didn’t just blink and it’s suddenly December (although this year does seem to be flying by!).
Ye Olde Christmas Shoppe
Even though we are far away from the holiday season, that doesn’t stop Disney from releasing holiday merchandise like fun new ornaments! We’ve already seen ornaments themed after things like Haunted Mansion, Tower of Terror, and the Disney Hotels. And now, we’ve found even MORE new ornaments showing places in Disney World!
Did you know that Christmas merchandise is available in the Disney World parks pretty much all year round? Or sometimes, Disney even surprises us with holiday merchandise and treats when we don’t expect it like they did for Disney’s recent Halfway to Halloween event!
Ye Olde Christmas Shoppe in Disney World
Even now in May, you can visit the Ye Olde Christmas Shoppe in Magic Kingdom to get your Christmas fix, explore the winter wonderland that is Disney’s Days of Christmas in Disney Springs, or find select ornaments in various Disney shops around the parks. Because, it’s never too early to find the perfect ornament for your Christmas tree, right? Well, today we spotted another new ornament in Disney World featuring one of the most popular rides in Magic Kingdom!
There is a LOT of Disney World 50th Anniversary Celebration merchandise — and more merchandise just keeps on coming.
Skyliner 50th Anniversary Popcorn Bucket
There are 50th anniversary spirit jerseys, popcorn buckets, ornaments, and more! Now, though, Amazon is getting in on the Disney World 50th Anniversary action with an EXCLUSIVE collection coming to the Treasure Truck!
It’s a SUPER exciting time in Disney World right now!

This week, we celebrated May the 4th, found out a TON of news about EPCOT, and got to ride Guardians of the Galaxy: Cosmic Rewind for the first time (spoiler alert: you might get motion sick). So much is happening, but Spring Break is mostly over now, so have the crowds died down? Let’s take a look at the average wait times from this week in Disney World!
Have you ever seen a Disney World dark ride with the lights on?
Rise of the Resistance
If you have, it might have completely changed your perspective on the ride! There’s a lot hiding in dark rides that we can’t see, but sometimes when rides break down and/or get evacuated, the lights will be turned on and you’ll get to see a whole new world. One of the most coveted rides to see with its lights on is Space Mountain — and we have a look for you!
Even though it’s spring right now, there was a LOT of talk about Disney World Halloween festivities this week!
We got some halloween goodies this week!
We’ve tried some exclusive Halfway to Halloween treats, learned that Mickey’s Not-So-Scary Halloween Party is coming BACK, and even got a sneak peek at some merch! But, it IS only April right now, and as much as we long for those (slightly) less crowded days, the spring crowds are still out in full force in the parks. So, let’s take a look at the average wait times in Disney World this week!
May the Fourth be with you (a little early, we know, but we couldn’t help it!).
Kylo Ren
We’re only a few days away from May the 4th (a.k.a. Star Wars Day), and we’re ready to celebrate all things Star Wars! There are tons of things you can do around the Disney parks to celebrate Star Wars. But Disneyland fans get to celebrate in a very special way for a super limited time!
Tokyo Disneyland opened up back in 1983, and many of its opening day attractions are still running to this day!
Tokyo Disneyland Resort
The resort recently celebrated its 800 millionth (!!) guest, opened up a brand new immersive Toy Story Hotel, and even debuted a new Beauty and the Beast ride a few years ago. But, the changes aren’t done yet — now Tokyo Disneyland is gearing up to refurbish an iconic Disney attraction and land that’s been around since the park first opened!
