I don’t know about you, but one of our favorite things to do at Disney is to collect popcorn buckets!

You’ve seen them. They come in all shapes and sizes. Some are practical and others are less so. With the year wrapping up, we thought we’d run down a list of the best of the best Disney popcorn buckets in 2024!
If you love Marvel AND Disney Parks, it’s a good time to be a fan of both.
We’ve been at D23: The Ultimate Disney Fan Event all weekend, which means we’ve seen some HUGE announcements revealed about new attractions and experiences coming to Disney Parks all over the world, new expansions for parks, new cruise ships, and more. We’ve learned that Avengers Campus in Disney California Adventure is about to double in size with two MORE attractions, but that’s not the only Marvel parks news we have. We also learned about a brand-new Spider-Man ride!
International travel is becoming widely popular again four years past the COVID-19 pandemic.
Castle of Magical Dreams at Hong Kong Disneyland
Disney has several international destinations including theme parks and cruise ports. Disneyland Paris, Tokyo Disney, Shanghai Disneyland, and Hong Kong Disneyland are all international theme parks you can visit, while you can cruise to The Bahamas at Castaway Cay or Lookout Cay at Lighthouse Point. But before you head to any of these international destinations, it’s important to do your research! We took a look at the latest travel advisories for each of the international Disney destinations, and we noted a few increased levels that we’re sharing with you.
Shanghai Disney Resort has kept itself pretty busy these last few years, and it looks like it has no intention of slowing down!

The park opened a new Zootopia-themed land in 2023, and another new theme park expansion may be in the works! Although not much information has been released about that teased expansion, new updates show that it might actually be coming to fruition at Shanghai Disneyland. Shanghai Disney Resort recently shared construction designs for the preliminary planning stages of a new theme park area, and the designs look promising.
It’s a very busy season for the international Disney parks!

Disney’s World of Frozen in Hong Kong brought us a whole new experience of interacting with the villagers inside Arendelle, creating a “living land.” Now, the brand new Zootopia land has opened at Shanghai Disney Resort and is giving us a glimpse into what it might be like to live in the mammalian city. And it turns out you can experience the citizens who live here, too!

Shanghai Disney Resort opened the new Zootopia land to guests on December 20th, 2023, and we’re having serious FOMO about it all! There’s a new attraction called Zootopia: Hot Pursuit, which features a trackless ride system and some interesting Imagineering technology. There are some wild new treats, a “one-of-a-kind atmosphere show,” a merchandise location, and more. But, the coolest thing about Disney’s New Zootopia land might be…the bathrooms?
Have you heard the HUGE Disney news from Shanghai Disney Resort!
