food IS a theme park
September is Hispanic and Latin American Heritage Month, and Disney is celebrating.
Mirabel at Disneyland
The celebration begins in Disney World on September 15th and runs through October 15th. For the celebration, Mirabel and Bruno will be coming to Magic Kingdom. Disney will also be celebrating with 54 more new offerings, and now, there’s a treat you can make at home!
Things at McDonald’s are changing.
World’s Largest Entertainment McDonald’s
McDonald’s has announced that new crispy chicken sandwiches are on their way to select stores. There are also new Happy Meal toys available that will have Pokemon fans excited. But there’s another change coming to ALL McDonald’s that some customers might not be happy about.
It’s only 14 weeks until Christmas! But who’s counting? No, really — who is counting down because we need to make sure we aren’t the only ones excited for the holidays.
Break out the Holiday decor
Yes, we know that Mickey’s Not So Scary Halloween Party is still in full swing and pumpkins are covering Main Street, U.S.A. right now, but sooner than you think, Disney World will break out their holiday decor. If you love counting down the days until Christmas, we found the perfect Disney way to do it.
Are you already counting down the days until your next Disney World vacation?
Disney World
We talk a lot about what to bring to the parks. We have told you about the embarrassing items you might need on your trip. We’ve shared the items you’ll never regret putting in your park bag. Now, we’re begging you to NOT bring these things into Magic Kingdom.
We are spilling a secret that we do all the time in Disney World.
Cinderella Castle
We’re pretty sure we aren’t the only ones who are doing this at Disney restaurants, but you will have to let us know. Whether it’s at a quick service or table service restaurant, sometimes we do this to save some money. Can you blame us? Alright, we’ll stop procrastinating and share our secret.
It’s fall here in Disney World.
Fall in Disney World
While the Florida weather might not agree, Mickey’s Not So Scary Halloween Party is underway and there are a lot of treats around Disney World you can get your hands on — and we’ve got one more to review for you!
If you have a love for this adorable purple dragon, you might want to know THIS before heading to meet him.
Figment Meet and Greet
When it was announced over the weekend at Destination D23 that Figment would start meeting guests on September 10th in EPCOT, we knew it would cause some chaos. Figment fans always show up for this adorable character, whether it is for a popcorn bucket or just an Annual Passholder magnet. We did get to meet Figment on the first day of his meet-and-greet and now, we have a BIG tip for you if you are hoping to meet him.
Disney’s BoardWalk has seen some changes recently, with even more to come.
Disney’s BoardWalk
When we heard The Cake Bake Shop was coming to Disney World, we were beyond excited! Sweet and savory menus, afternoon tea service, a whimsical atmosphere…who wouldn’t be excited?! So, in preparation for the opening of this new restaurant, we interviewed the owner, Gwendolyn Rogers, and took a look at what the menu and pricing could be. The restaurant was supposed to open in 2023, but now we just got word that is not happening.
We’re here at the biggest Disney fan event of the year, Destination D23. This weekend, we will learn a lot about the future projects of Disney and what guests can expect in the future.
Destination D23 stage
We already had some BIG announcements this morning from the first panel of the weekend. We know when the Hat Box ghost will be coming to Disney World, the official opening date of Journey of Water, and that the end of EPCOT’s transformation will finish in December. There is a lot more that was announced, so be sure to check out our live updates for more. But, there was noticeably one topic that was not touched on during this panel.
Believe it or not, the holiday season will be here soon.
Christmas in Disney World
Mentally, we’re already walking down Main Street, U.S.A., staring at all the Christmas decorations while drinking hot chocolate. But since it’s not that time yet, we can at least start planning our holiday decorations at home for this year. We just found two items you can add to your tree this year to add some Disney style to it.
Our handy (and portable!) ebook guides make sure you get the best deals and can plan a vacation of a lifetime.
