food IS a theme park
What you are about to see is not a news broadcast. It is not a list of closed-case stories. And it’s DEFINITELY not all faith, trust, and pixie dust out here.
Magic Kingdom
This program is about unsolved mysteries: Disney World edition – which you’ll only find TODAY, on DFB Guide.
We’re only about a month away from the NEW Rock ‘n’ Roller Coaster Starring the Muppets in Disney’s Hollywood Studios from opening, and y’all, we couldn’t be MORE excited…because, well, it’s’ the MUPPETS.

We cannot wait for The Walt Disney Studios, the former Animation Courtyard area, to partly open up next month, because let’s be real — all those walls in the park are starting to get a little tiring. To know we’re so close to a large section of them coming down? Agh, we’re so stoked! One of the areas of the land we know will open up earliest is the new Disney Jr. show, which is Disney Jr. Mickey Mouse Clubhouse Live. We’ve known when it’ll open for a while, but now, Disney has quietly confirmed showtimes!
What’s something we can all be excited about? That’s right! More Disney merch at Target.

Magic Kingdom will look totally different in one week, because Big Thunder Mountain Railroad is finally reopening!
Big Thunder Mountain Railroad in Magic Kingdom
Big Thunder Mountain reopens on May 3rd with some exciting new changes! Disney Imagineers have been hard at work for the last five years to reimagine the roller coaster. The attraction closed in January of 2025, so fans are anxiously waiting to hop back on the wildest ride in the wilderness!
Disney World is known for the incredible theme parks, but secretly, I love a Disney Resort just as much! Resort Hopping is an entirely different side of Disney that can lead you to some amazing shopping, delicious dining, and more.
Disney Springs is full of things to do!
While you can’t park at most Disney hotels without a hotel or dining reservation, there are ways around that. One of the easiest ways is to park at Disney Springs, hop on one of Disney’s free transportation buses, and enjoy your day. But you could have a hiccup in your plans, and this is why some guests might want to avoid Disney Springs in 2026.
You probably know by now that we love new Disney food. There is something so special about ordering something you’ve never had before and getting to eat it in front of the castle with the parade starting down Main Street.

TRON Lightcycle / Run is the newest Magic Kingdom coaster at Disney World, and it opened in Magic Kingdom on April 4th, 2023. But over the past few years, since it opened, many guests have expressed frustration over the attraction.
TRON Lightcycle / Run
Since the ride’s opening, guests have experienced issues with fitting on the unique style of ride vehicle. Unlike other rides at Disney World, this attraction requires you to sit in a similar seat to a bike. This caused issues with guests being able to sit on these seats. So if you’re wondering if you will fit on TRON, you aren’t alone. [Read more…]
