food IS a theme park
As Halloween activities have taken over Disney World, the parks have been getting busier and busier.
Halloween at Magic Kingdom
And that means that Halloween park passes have also been going fast for pretty much everyone!
Disney’s Fort Wilderness Resort and Campground is typically known for its fun Halloween activities.

Normally, there are elaborate decorations from campers, trick-or-treating, and other festivities that really bring this resort to life. However, this year, Halloween will be slightly different at the resort due to the coronavirus pandemic.
A lot changed after Disney World reopened this summer. We’ve seen several BIG events get canceled, while others, such as EPCOT’s International Food and Wine Festival, have been altered to account for new health and safety guidelines.
Christmas Tree in Epcot
We recently learned that EPCOT’s Festival of the Holidays is still very much a GO but, like the Food and Wine Fest, it’s going to be different from previous years. Don’t worry, though — the Holiday Cookie Stroll is still on! Whew! We shared a lot of new information regarding the Festival of the Holidays today, and some of it was pretty unexpected. Here’s what you might have missed…
One reason to really love Halloween season is all the great Haunted Mansion merchandise that turns up this time of year!
Haunted Mansion
Haunted Mansion isn’t seasonal, though — it’s to be celebrated the whole year round! And we’ll be sipping from our Madame Leota sipper and wearing our Haunted Mansion shirts well into next summer and fall!
It’s no secret that we love trying new things at DFB. And there’s nothing like a little heat to add extra flavor, right?

When it comes to heat, we’ve tried a variety of spicy foods at Disney World, from spicy steak bowls to spicy cheese sticks to spicy margaritas. So when Blaze Fast Fire’d Pizza announced its Blazin’ Hot Chicken Pizza, we knew it was calling our name!
Although Downtown Disney has reopened, the rest of Disneyland Resort remains closed, and could stay that way for some time.
The Disneyland Hotel
Previously, Disneyland Resort hotels were only accepting reservations starting on November 1st, but it seems that this date has changed again.
‘Tis the season for all things spooky at Disney World! And that even includes spooky Halloween popcorn buckets!
Orange Cauldron Popcorn Bucket
And we’ve been on a mission to find every single one in the parks that we can find. So far, we’ve seen Oogie Boogie, a Hitchhiking Ghost, and a creepy cauldron (among others).
A lot has changed at Disney World since its reopening. One of the biggest changes is that guests must now make advance park pass reservations, in addition to having a valid Disney World ticket, to visit a park on any given day.
Magic Kingdom
To do this, guests must go online and choose which park they plan on visiting for each day of their trip. And before now, this could only be done via the Disney World website.
We’ve been roaming all over the Disney World Resort area to fill you in on what’s new!
Disney’s Wilderness Lodge
Our journey recently took us to Disney’s Wilderness Lodge and Disney’s Fort Wilderness Resort & Campground. Here are all the latest updates since our last visit!
Holiday snacks and merchandise are starting to pop up in the Disney parks, and you know what that means — the festive season is coming!
Holiday Bag
We have spotted SO MUCH HOLIDAY MERCH recently! But one item seems to have come a long way to celebrate the holidays at Disney World!
Our handy (and portable!) ebook guides make sure you get the best deals and can plan a vacation of a lifetime.
