food IS a theme park
It is an exciting day at Disney World! There are lots of new changes debuting including the beginning of the 30th Anniversary Celebration of The Lion King at Disney’s Animal Kingdom, a new meet and greet at Disney’s Hollywood Studios, and the grand opening of CommuniCore Hall & Plaza in EPCOT.
The EPCOT map got a big update!
We had the opportunity to get a sneak peek at this new space last night, and now the CommuniCore Hall and Plaza area is finally open for everyone TODAY.
We are coming at you from Magic Kingdom as we experience Tiana’s Bayou Adventure for the first-time during Cast Member previews! We have been not-so-patiently waiting for this attraction to open and starting most of our articles with “We’re almost there!” somewhere in the opening paragraph.
Tiana’s Bayou Adventure in Magic Kingdom
Well, previews have officially kicked off for Tiana’s Bayou Adventure, so we REALLY are getting that much closer to the grand opening. We were fortunate to be able to take part in Cast Member previews, and we are sharing ALL the details with you!
We are less than a month away from the grand opening of Tiana’s Bayou Adventure in Magic Kingdom!
Tiana’s Bayou Adventure
We have been keeping a close eye on the construction since it started, and recently got a first look at all the merchandise coming! We have also been watching as Cast Member previews began off earlier this week. While we have seen the ride have its fair share of downtimes, we know they are still working out the kinks and we are looking forward to experiencing this attraction for the first time.
There is so much to do at Disney Springs! A new drone show called “Disney Dreams That Soar” just debuted in May, and Disney Springs is jam-packed with restaurants and shops. Plus, you can find a variety of live entertainment throughout Disney Springs.
Disney Springs
We are always on the hunt to make sure we keep all of our readers up to date on the latest food offerings at Disney World. Disney Springs is constantly introducing new offerings and rotating through options, and we are headed over to Vivoli il Gelato to try out a treat for Pride Month!
We just got a BIG hint that a Christmas-time event will likely be returning to Disney’s Hollywood Studios this year!
Jollywood Nights
It may only be June, but since Halloween starts in August at Disney World with Mickey’s Not So Scary Halloween Party, it just seems fitting that we are already getting hints about what to expect during the winter holidays.
Remain calm, but a treat we have been waiting for since the Mickey Mouse Ice Cream Sandwich Disney Eats collection debuted has finally arrived! This Disney Eats collection debuted in May and featured a Mickey Mouse Ice Cream Sandwich that couldn’t even be found in the parks.
Main Street, USA
However, Disney World has come to the rescue (kind of) and released a Mickey Mint Chocolate Chip Cookie Sandwich that looks strikingly similar to the treat featured in the Disney Eats collection. The treat is a mouthful of words, and we are slightly confused as it is NOT an ice cream sandwich. But when we saw that we could get our hands on a similar treat, we had to try it!
We talk a lot about Southwest Airlines here at DFB, including the good, the bad, and the ugly. We know there are lots of airlines to choose from when you are planning your Disney World vacation, and we are here to help you make the most informed decision.
Southwest Airlines is bringing back a summer event!
Now, while this particular event is not happening in Disney World, we wanted to let you know about a popular event that Southwest Airlines is bringing back! It may just call for us to book a trip to Oahu, so we can celebrate with Southwest Airlines and enjoy some island vibes.
While menu changes happen practically every day at Disney World, and we are always keeping you updated with our weekly menu updates, some changes deserve a post of their own. And today, we have some exciting Mickey Waffle news!
Sunset Boulevard in Disney’s Hollywood Studios
A food stand at Disney’s Hollywood Studios just got a HUGE update and we needed to let you know about it!
Disney Parks released a full ride-through video of Tiana’s Bayou Adventure in Magic Kingdom this morning, and we may be freaking out a bit over here! We have already dived into the FULL list of songs that you can hear on the ride, and we have already noticed that something is missing from this ride.
Tiana’s Bayou Adventure in Magic Kingdom
This attraction is officially opening in Magic Kingdom on June 28th, 2024, but you can get a full look at the ride before its grand opening. We want to take a close look at some details you can spot in the finale scene of Tiana’s Bayou Adventure, so let’s check them out!
Alright, I want to start off by saying that you don’t need to panic or violently cross off riding Guardians of the Galaxy: Cosmic Rewind on your EPCOT list. While I did have to call 911 on multiple occasions while working at Disney World, that is truly the exception. Bad things can still happen at Disney World, and unfortunately, something bad will likely happen every day at Disney World. However, that doesn’t mean you should make any drastic changes.
Guardians of the Galaxy: Cosmic Rewind
There are lots and lots of moving parts at Disney World, with lots and lots of people experiencing all those moving parts. It is hot, people are exhausted, and things happen. It may be the “Most Magical Place on Earth,” but less-than-magical things can still happen. Being prepared and listening to your body can help prevent some less-than-magical things but Cast Members (and paramedics) are also there to help.
