food IS a theme park
Now here’s a challenge that’s BRAND-NEW for the DFB squad.
Rapunzel’s Royal Table
Today, we’re ranking ALL the Disney Cruise Line restaurants to show you which ships have the best food, the best theming, and the best bang for your all-inclusive buck.
Gearing up for a 2024 Disney World vacation? Ooooh, golly, then you’ll definitely want to know about some BIG changes that have hit the scene this year…
“I’M GOING TO DISNEY WORLD!”
One of the absolute biggest updates is the return of the Disney Dining Plan, which had been suspended since the Resort reopened in 2020 following its temporary closure. (Similar to some of the other changes — like those coming to Park Pass reservations — this change took effect for stays starting January 9, 2024.) So we thought we’d take the time now to discuss why you should not buy the Disney Dining Plan. [Read more…]
Looking to stay in Disney World for CHEAPER?
Disney Springs
Hotels in Disney World are expensive, so why not stay at a good neighbor hotel instead? These are hotels that are located on Disney World property but aren’t owned by Disney (so they’re generally cheaper). Sometimes those can get a little pricy as well, especially during busy times like summer break, but one hotel is now offering a discount for a limited time!
For many families, summer is the most logical time to go on vacation. School’s out, the weather is nice, and those holiday weekends make it easier to take off work. Often, Disney World sees a spike in park attendance come summer, so it’s no surprise that many families plan to visit Orlando between June and August.
EPCOT
Although summer is a popular time of year for Disney World, some may be questioning their summer plans in the parks this year. Let’s talk about it.
Get ready — the NEW Haunted Mansion movie is on its way and we’ve got a major update.
D23 Expo (2022)
The movie will be released on July 28th and features all kinds of celebrities like Tiffany Haddish, Owen Wilson, Danny DeVito, Rosario Dawson, Jaime Lee Curtis, and even Jared Leto as The Hatbox Ghost. We’ve shared a teaser trailer of the film before, but now a FULL, OFFICIAL trailer has arrived!
Sometimes you just need a little pick-me-up!
A sweet treat? Yes, please!
If you’re on a Disney trip, those can include some long days, and you might need a bite of a sweet snack or a caffeinated beverage to make it through. We recently tried a snack over in Magic Kingdom that we wanted to share with you!
The EPCOT Food & Wine Festival gets all of the attention.
WELCOME to the Disney California Adventure Food and Wine Festival!
But there’s also a Food & Wine Festival on the West Coast, in Disney California Adventure, and you don’t want to sleep on this feisty little festival!
We like to think that we have few weaknesses in life, but Disney merchandise and our favorite park snacks will land on that list every time.
Food is better when it’s Mickey-shaped!
The ultimate weakness, though, is when Disney combines the two things to create seemingly irresistible pieces of merchandise that LOOK like our favorite snacks. (Bonus points for the things that even SMELL like our favorite snacks.) If you’re in the same boat, shopDisney is offering a sneak peek of a merchandise item that we have a feeling Disney snack lovers might not be able to resist.
It’s time for more Disney 100th Anniversary news!
100th Anniversary
Disney is releasing a new “decade” collection for each decade the company has existed. The new collection — the ’50s collection — dropped today, and we suggest you grab these new items before they’re gone!
Few franchises have taken the world by storm like Avatar.
Pandora — The World of Avatar at Disney’s Animal Kingdom
The story that inspired an entire land at Disney’s Animal Kingdom is only getting started, with the latest installment, Avatar: The Way of Water, breaking box office records. If you didn’t get the chance to see the movie when it was in theaters, you’re in luck, because we just learned when it will be released on Disney+!
