What's New in Magic Kingdom: Reduced Social Distancing and a CRAZY Food Hack

Welcome back to Magic Kingdom!

Cinderella Castle

We’re taking a trip around Disney World’s flagship park to see what’s new with food, construction, merchandise, and MORE. Let’s get started!

Magic Kingdom Food Updates

Okay. We made you guys go crazy when we told you about a new DFB food hack: a Mickey Pretzel with plastic cheese AND queso!

Mickey Pretzel

Our readers were totally split on this one.

Are YOU a fan?!

Let us know what you think — and check out how to make this cheesy creation here!

Magic Kingdom Construction Updates

We’ve got a couple of construction updates for ya! First up, we noticed noise coming from the Main Street, U.S.A. train station, indicating that work is underway. The Walt Disney World Railroad has been closed for a while, so we’re happy to hear some construction taking place!

We also noticed that some “seat not available” stickers had been removed from various benches, walls, etc. around the park. For example, this bench in Tomorrowland used to have stickers to help people space out.

Feel free to sit here!

But now, they’re all gone!

Stickers have been removed!

It’s worth noting that there are still some of these stickers out and about, so just keep an eye out for ’em.

You will still find some stickers!

We’ve seen Disney World reducing social distancing recently, so this is just another example of that shift.

Magic Kingdom Merchandise Updates

Emporium

In the Emporium, we found a new rainbow Walt Disney World logo hat for $27.99!

New hat!

We also spotted an “it’s a small world” board game.

Ye Olde Christmas Shoppe

In Ye Olde Christmas Shoppe in Liberty Square, we found a rainbow Mickey ornament.

It’s $17.99 and perfect to decorate your tree with a hint of Pride!

Memento Mori

And in Memento Mori, one of our favorite mugs has been restocked!

We LOVE this mug.

We love the pun — plus, the shovel makes for a GREAT stirrer.

Star Traders

We’ve been keeping you up to date on The Little Mermaid Stitch Crashes Disney collection, which was restocked in Star Traders!

We found him!

We found the plush — which was selling out FAST — for $29.99.

Tomorrowland Light & Power Co.

In Tomorrowland Light & Power Co. (that’s the Space Mountain gift shop!), we found a rainbow Marvel magnet.

New Marvel Magnet

We love the subtle Marvel symbols with the “Strong” text!

Plaza del Sol Caribe Bazaar

Lastly, we’ve got a SUPER cool find in Plaza del Sol Caribe Bazaar (aka the Pirates of the Caribbean gift shop): a Pirates of the Caribbean vinyl record!

How cool is this?!

If all you wanna do is listen to the theme song on repeat, you may want to snag this for $21.98.

Check Out This Record in More Detail!
