food IS a theme park
Sometimes, it seems like are two kinds of people in this world: Halloween people and Christmas people.
Christmas Tree in Epcot
Halloween folks have a lot of fall decor and spooky snacks to look forward to soon, and Christmas people, well, it’s 2020, so who cares. It’s time to deck the halls!
Earlier this week, we learned that character dining is coming BACK to Disney’s Hollywood Studios!
Hollywood Studios
Yes, Hollywood & Vine, a buffet in the Echo Lake section of the park is returning on September 25th with some spooky twists, but being able to greet Minnie Mouse and friends from a safe social distance while they were Halloween costumes isn’t the only change…
Do you hear that…it’s…jingle bells?!
Santa Goofy
Disney World may be gearing up for fall and Halloween celebrations in the next few weeks, but it’s 2020 and time has no meaning, so we’ve also spotted some Christmas stuff around the parks!
If we’re being honest, Disney dogs and Disney cats are some of the CUTEST characters EVER!
PLUTO!
Those little whiskers! And paws! And tails! The adorableness of it all honestly just makes you want to, we don’t know, redecorate your whole kitchen in their likeness.
It’s been a long year, right??
2020 Mickey Ornament
The global health crisis caused the world to stop, including the Disney theme parks, and even though most of them have reopened around the world, sometimes, ya know, you’re still just not feeling 100%, even if you’re Goofy.
OK, it’s September 1st, and that means fall is (un)officially here!!!
That’s a Pumpkin Spice Latte, btw!
We’ve already spotted TONS of seasonal flavors around Walt Disney World, including the Mozart Chocolate Cream Pumpkin Spice liqueur at EPCOT, prepackaged Halloween treats and hot drinks in new cups. And we also know that Halloween and fall fun are coming back to Magic Kingdom soon!
Though the gates leading to Sleeping Beauty Castle at Disneyland may be closed, the original Disney theme park over in Anaheim, California, turned 65 years old in July!
Disneyland Gate
And to celebrate the big birthday, there has been a TON of 65th anniversary merch, from Mickey Mouse plushes to spirit jerseys, T-shirts, puzzles, magnets, and so. much. more!
Mickey and Minnie’s Runaway Railway has been a huge hit at Disney’s Hollywood Studios ever since it opened earlier this year.
Mickey & Minnie’s Runaway Railway
And before it even opened at Walt Disney World, we learned that a version of this ride will ALSO be opening in ToonTown at Disneyland Park.
We want to wish a VERY happy birthday to La Cava del Tequila!
La Cava del Tequila
This tequila lounge in the Mexico Pavilion at EPCOT, best known for its La Cava Avocado margarita and shots of tequila, turned 11 years old earlier this week!
We have been LOVING the Taste of EPCOT Food and Wine Festival!
2020 Taste of EPCOT
And we’ve been even MORE thrilled with it ever since more food booths opened up this weekend!
