food IS a theme park
It’s time for us to see what’s new at Disney’s Hollywood Studios!
Millennium Falcon at Hollywood Studios
Dapper Day, the disappearance (and reappearance) of Dok-Ondar icons, and low crowds were only some of the things we saw. And we hope you’re ready to shop, as new merchandise was everywhere!
There are a number of special rules that apply to Disney World, but some of those could be CHANGING.
Mickey’s Ready to Fly!
We’ve shared a lot about the dissolution of the Reedy Creek Improvement District and what that could mean for the future. But there’s another change that one U.S. congressional representative wants others to consider.
If you go to Disney World a lot, you’re probably aware of how popular popcorn buckets are around the parks!
Mummy Mickey Popcorn Bucket
And, we totally get it — it’s great to have a container that you can refill with popcorn throughout the day, especially if it has a fun design. There are SO many fun designs to choose from, like Mickey balloons, Jack Skellington heads, Star Wars droids, and more. And, we just discovered a brand NEW popcorn bucket in Disney World!
It’s been a bit of a rollercoaster when it comes to MagicBands in Disney World lately!
MagicBands
We found out last year that a new generation of MagicBands would be released some time in 2022, but an official release date has not been released. However, the new MagicBand+ was recently put on sale accidentally for a very short amount of time before Disney pulled them from the shelves (we were able to snag one, though!). So, until they’re officially available, we’ll keep telling you about when new styles of the current MagicBands are released. And, there’s a new band that only a select group of people are able to grab!
It might only be May, but EPCOT’s Food and Wine Festival is coming up sooner than you think!
Food and Wine 2021
The festival begins on July 14th and runs all the way until November 19th, 2022. We already know about some of the returning food booths, and we know that the Eat to the Beat concert series and Remy’s Ratatouille Hide & Squeek will be coming back. While July might seem far away right now, Disney will be getting ready sooner than you think, and one of those preparations includes closing an attraction!
EPCOT will soon have a BRAND NEW ride for guests to enjoy. But if you’re hoping to go for opening day, there might be a problem.
It’s Almost “Save the Galaxy” Time!
Guardians of the Galaxy: Cosmic Rewind opens in EPCOT on May 27th — that’s just a few days away! We’ve seen all kinds of sneak peeks at the ride, its queue, its soundtrack, and more. But there’s something that could keep you from seeing it on its opening day. [Read more…]
A new month means new Sprinkles flavors!
Sprinkles in Downtown Disney
With a Sprinkles location in both Disney Springs and Downtown Disney, guests can visit Sprinkles after — or before –their day in the parks! And, much like Salt & Straw, Sprinkles is constantly coming out with new and unique flavors for guests to try. Speaking of new flavors, Sprinkles just announced what they’re baking in May!
Things at Disney World could be CHANGING in a big way.
The Walt Disney World main gate
A bill that will dissolve the Reedy Creek Improvement District (“RCID”) has passed the Florida Senate and House of Representatives, and been signed by the Florida Governor. The RCID is a special district that has allowed Disney World to essentially act as its own county and have a great deal of control over the land on which it operates in Orlando. There have been some, however, who have argued that there might be some MAJOR roadblocks that could stand in Florida’s way of dissolving the RCID. What if the RCID does get dissolved, though? What could happen next? Well some Florida lawmakers are chiming in with their thoughts.
Do you know what special holiday is coming up?
Galaxy’s Edge
May the 4th, AKA Star Wars Day, is almost HERE and there are so many ways to celebrate! There’s some new merchandise being released, we’ve thought up some unique ways to celebrate in Disney World, and there’s even a ride overlay in Disneyland! But, get ready for one of the BEST ways to celebrate, because the FULL LIST of special Disney foods coming for the holiday has been released!
Well, we’re here again…
Salt & Straw
Yep, we’re back at Salt & Straw in Disney Springs — AGAIN — trying yet another ice cream flavor because, hey, that’s what we do! We are in LOVE with this ice cream shop that JUST opened recently in Disney World — it’s given us some of the most unique ice cream flavors we’ve ever tried. Today, we’re back with another flavor!
