food IS a theme park
40 never looked so good, EPCOT!

If your Disney travel partners argue over whether to start World Showcase in Mexico or in Canada — well, this limited-time 40th celebration item is here to settle that debate!
Autumn in Disney World starts creeping in around August when some kiddos around the country start heading back to school. Though the weather in Orlando still feels a bit…summery.
Eventually, we all start to fill a bit of a fall chill in the air (even if it’s just the air conditioning!) so we found some fun ways to keep you cozy all through the night!
🎶It’s the most wonderful time of the year…..🎶
Magic Kingdom is all decked out!
While we haven’t even welcomed Halloween, let alone Thanksgiving, and folks are still sipping and savoring their pumpkin spice….everything, we, here at DFB know that it’s never too early to start preparing for Christmas. And we’re glad our friends over at Pottery Barn, are of the same mindset. Let’s look through some of their Christmas items and pick up just what our homes need for the jolly holiday just around the corner!

We’re bringing you all of the Disney news live from the 2022 D23 Expo this weekend!
D23 Expo
This weekend has been filled with exciting details and fun nods to Disney World’s past. And, in case you haven’t noticed, Disneyland Resort is getting A LOT of attention. Now, we’re looking to the updates promised to Disney California Adventure — Avenger Campus is getting a new attraction!
Mickey’s Not-So-Scary Halloween Party is back and has officially started in the Magic Kingdom! This Halloween event is serving up special treats and candy, and provides the opportunity to meet some rare characters! Goodbye Dapper Dans, hello Cadaver Dans!
Welcome to the Party!
Mickey’s Not-So-Scary Halloween Party is full of Halloween-themed offerings, snacks, merchandise and even pictures. Yep, you read that right, you can get some special Halloween photos to commemorate these spooky memories.
You studied the DFB Guide YouTube channel, you read every article, scoured every newsletter, and read & re-read the DFB Guidebook. You marked your calendar, you snagged that practically impossible advanced dining reservation (ADR) for ‘Ohana because YOU KNOW how epic the ‘Ohana noodles are.
Our favorite noodles
You have your table, you’ve ordered your food, and when you see your server arrive at your table with that platter filled with ‘Ohana noodles, you simply cannot contain yourself. Maybe you have a fork, maybe you’ve mastered the chopsticks, or maybe you just dive face-first into that teriyaki, starchy masterpiece — all you know is that this is the moment you’ve been waiting for and nothing will get between you and those precious noods.
🎶”Boys and girls of every age… Wouldn’t you like to see something strange? Come with us and you will see…” tons of treats from Halloween.🎶

The 2022 Mickey’s Not-So-Scary Halloween Party in Magic Kingdom is in full swing, and we’ve been watching all of the shows, scoping out all of the shops, and yes, eating all of the treats!
Mickey’s Not-So-Scary Halloween Party has officially arrived, and while we know it seems a little strange to be trick-or-treating in the heart of swimsuit season, we also know that our favorite mouse loves a good party. And with a good party — comes good snacks! That’s just a combination that we CANNOT refuse.
HALLOWEEN is here!
Mickey’s Not-So-Scary Halloween Party is a fun and spooky hard-ticketed event (that means you need to purchase a separate ticket to attend). The party includes rare character meet and greets, awesome party treats, stellar Halloween entertainment, and candy (lots and lots of candy!). There are also some exclusive treats, so come along with us to try another one of them out!
August marks the last days before school starts, back-to-school shopping, soaking in those last few moments of summer vacation, and trips to the pool and beach — you guessed it, Halloween at Disney World. So, crank up your AC, grab a cozy sweater, something pumpkin-spiced, and come along with us to explore the return of Mickey’s Not-So-Scary Halloween Party!

We HAD to be at the first party, and we’re so glad you’re coming along with us to scope out all of the spooky parades, characters, treats, snacks, and fireworks that take on a certain not-so-scary vibe.
Though Thackery Binx had to wait 300 years for the right person to light a candle (Hocus Pocus reference anyone? Did you get it? Phew…we knew you were our people!), we only had to wait about a year for the Halloween snacks to reappear once again in Disney World for the fall season!
It’s TIME
We are officially in spooky season and Mickey’s Not-So-Scary Halloween Party is kicking off in Disney World! But you don’t have to go to the party to try some of the spooky treats. We stopped by Magic Kingdom during its regular hours today to grab a Halloween-specific snack, but it’s one that you might feel very conflicted about.
Our handy (and portable!) ebook guides make sure you get the best deals and can plan a vacation of a lifetime.
