food IS a theme park
Welcome back, DFB friends! We’re here with another What’s New at Disney Springs!
Christmas Tree Trail
We’ve got plenty of merch and construction updates to share with you, so let’s dive right on in!
It’s time to grab your Baby Yoda and traverse the galaxy!
Star Wars Galactic Outpost
We don’t think we’re alone in saying that The Mandalorian has totally been making us want to live out our own Star Wars adventure! While one (amazing, life-changing!) way of doing that is to ride the newest Rise of the Resistance ride over at Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge, no Star Wars adventure is complete without the perfect outfit! Luckily, Star Wars Galactic Outpost in Disney Springs has got us covered and ready to suit up!
After experiencing Rise of the Resistance for the first time last week, we’ve been on the hunt for ways to show off our more rebellious-side!

And while doing a little holiday shopping at Disney Springs this afternoon, (after enjoying some Homecomin’ Strawberry Watermelon Lemonade moonshine from our new refillable sipper!) we found just the thing!
Has there EVER been a character as universally loved as Baby Yoda from The Mandalorian?!

Whether you’re a Star Wars fan or not, chances are you have fallen head over heels for this ADORABLE little green creature! We know we’re not alone in our obsession with the cuddliest member of the Star Wars universe, because we have been seeing Baby Yoda everywhere! From a Baby Yoda plush, to a Pop Socket, and Pop Funkos, there’s been no stopping “The Child’s takeover! Now we’ve got even MORE for ya, with a collection of Baby Yoda merch you can take with you wherever you go!
Ever since the release of The Mandalorian on Disney+, a Baby Yoda craze has taken over the Disney-verse!

When the show premiered, the character was shrouded in secrecy, which meant there was NO merchandise representing our favorite lil’ green guy. Now, about a month since the show’s premiere, we have started seeing Baby Yoda everywhere! From a Baby Yoda plush, to a Pop Socket, and Pop Funkos, there’s been no stopping “The Child’s takeover! Now we’ve got a few more to add to that growing list, and they might just be the cutest pieces of merch yet…!
The wait is finally over. No, we aren’t talking about a new episode or a new series added to Disney+.
Disney+ Streaming Service
When Disney+ launched, dozens of characters were available to choose from as your profile icon. These ranged from classic animated villains to Pixar to Marvel. Now, with the massive success of The Mandalorian, the true breakout star has joined the ranks of profile icon fame.
Can you believe that Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker is almost here?!

The latest installment of the Star Wars Skywalker Saga will be hitting the big screen on December 20th, and Disney is going all out with the celebration. From The Rise of Skywalker merchandise to themed cupcakes popping up in the parks, Disney is getting ready for the latest debut in the series. But, if you can’t make it to a Disney park to celebrate the Star Wars milestone, don’t despair! There’s a more local Disney spot you might be able to visit to commemorate the big day!
A long time ago in a galaxy far, far away…well actually it was 30 years ago and it was in our own galaxy, Star Tours officially opened in Hollywood Studios. Since 1989 this innovative simulator attraction has taken guests to planets across the Star Wars universe.
