food IS a theme park
TOMORROW, May 1st, is Disney’s Hollywood Studios 30th Anniversary… can you believe it? In celebration of the big event, we were able to catch a glimpse of some of the merchandise that will be available for Studios big celebration.
A hat, t-shirts, pins, a Tervis tumbler, and ornaments are a few of the limited release merchandise pieces that will be available at Hollywood Studios starting tomorrow.
Disney Parks Blog announced today a new round of desserts coming to Walt Disney World’s Magic Kingdom next month — and you’re definitely going to want to know when and where you can get them for yourself!

Have you ever wondered how much you actually save with Walt Disney World free dining? Or which discount offer is the best value for your family?
Well, Disney’s just released three HUGE discount offers for this summer that are worth taking a look at. These deals include the Summer 2019 Room and Gift Card Offer, the 2019 FREE Quick Service Meal Plan, and the Visa Cardholder Free Dining Offer. But don’t just assume that the free dining option will save you the most. There are a lot of factors that affect which discount is going to bank you the most cash. And we want to look at those with you today!
Free Dining
Oh, and if you’re wondering WHY Disney’s offering all of these discounts right now, basically it’s because the late August opening of Galaxy’s Edge is sucking SO many guests into the last four months of the year that Disney is having trouble selling rooms in the summer! That means that if you’d like to go when your kids are out of school, this is likely your least expensive and least crowded opportunity…at least for the next few years.
The discount or offer that will save you the MOST money right now depends on your resort, your party size, your family’s preferences, and your length of stay.
