UPDATED April 16, 2026
There’s nothing like planning a trip to Disney World, only to get there and realize that you – and thousands of other people – have picked the wrong time to visit.
Cinderella Castle
We’ve been there, staring down Main Street, U.S.A. while the hordes make their way to Cinderella Castle like something out of The Walking Dead, all because it’s a special holiday weekend, or there’s a runDisney event, or something else that’s brought people to the parks. Or maybe you just want to know when special events are happening in Disney World. Well, we’ve got you covered because we’re going to give you every single date you need to know for Disney World in 2026.
Hey New Yorkers, and those planning on being in New York on November 7th, have we got an event for you!
‘Disney Adults’!
Our founder AJ Wolfe is coming to the Big Apple to sign copies of her book, Disney Adults: Exploring (And Falling In Love With) A Magical Subculture. So if you would like to get a copy of the book AND meet AJ, here’s your chance.
In just a few weeks, we’ll go from singing “This is Halloween” to “Jingle Bells,” and we are SO ready for the holiday season in Disney World.

One of the most magical holiday things you can do in Disney World is go to Mickey’s Very Merry Christmas Party and enjoy all the special party activities, the food, and the SNOAP (y’all, the snoap just makes it that much more special). However, there are also exclusive souvenirs you can grab at the party. Now, Disney previously gave us a look at the party spirit jersey and ears, but now, we’ve got a first look at even MORE exclusive merchandise you’ll be able to get if you’ve got a party ticket.
Hey, New Yorkers! We have an exclusive event for you that you’ll want to sign up for immediately.

If you’re a fan of the “Disney Adults” book, you can have the opportunity to get your book signed by AJ Wolfe herself.
Do you remember…that an EPCOT celebration is just around the corner?
Crowds at Cosmic Rewind
We’re already in the middle of the EPCOT Food & Wine Festival, and it feels like Festival of the Holidays is almost here, too. While those are both great, there’s a secret holiday at EPCOT that is only for one day that you won’t want to miss.
It’s officially Halloween, or at least it is in Disney World (and who are we to argue with Disney), so Happy Halloween! The Halloween decorations have finally gone up, and the first Mickey’s Not-So-Scary Halloween Party has arrived.
Mickey’s Not-So-Scary Halloween Party
Speaking of Mickey’s Not-So-Scary Halloween Party, we found a little perk that we bet you might not have known about. Now this perk is for Disney Vacation Club (DVC) members, who can already get a discount on party tickets, but there’s a freebie you can grab while at select parties: a Halloween tote!
EPCOT’s Food and Wine Festival is kicking off shortly with tons of exciting eats, drinks, and entertainment.
2024 Food and Wine Festival
The festival, which starts on August 28th, 2025, is sure to bring back tons of favorites along with some brand new bites. While we do love this festival, there’s one little secret we have that makes it better every time. We’ve talked as a team and decided it’s time to let you in on it!
So there are a ton of great seasonal foods in Disney World that are only available during certain events and holidays.
This was a treat
For example, we recently got a list of some new Halloween treats coming to Disney World (and we are so excited). We’ve also seen some limited-time Disney Princess treats released for World Princess Week. Plus, the EPCOT Food and Wine Festival always brings new food and drinks! However, one event is set to end soon, meaning that a total of 90 special restaurant menu items are going to disappear soon!
The 2025 EPCOT Food and Wine Festival kicks off August 28th and runs through November 22nd, and there’s a lot more to it than just strolling around World Showcase with a drink in hand.
2024 EPCOT Food & Wine Festival
From exclusive eats and returning fan-favorite booths to live music and limited-edition merch, the Festival is PACKED with options — and your day can get overwhelming fast if you show up without a plan. Before you start mapping out your booth-hopping strategy, here are a few things you’ll want to know so you can hit the ground running when the Festival opens later this month.
