food IS a theme park
The 2021 EPCOT Food and Wine Festival has given us so much new merchandise!
EPCOT Food and Wine Festival Passport
We went over all the Food and Wine merchandise that could be found in EPCOT at the opening of the festival on July 15th, and today we found a NEW limited edition item that’s surely going to go fast.
It’s officially well into summer, and Disney World is hopping!
Wow, that’s busy!
We’ve seen pretty steady crowds with hoards of vacationers visiting while school is out, and as capacity slowly increases, the parks get busier. That means that you need to book your Disney Park Passes NOW if you plan to visit soon. And now, they just got restocked for July!
Now that Disneyland has reopened and Avengers Campus has made its debut, the next big question when it comes to Disneyland is this — when will Disney announce its new membership program for guests? As of now, no new information about the new program has been announced.
When will Disneyland announce its new membership program?
Months ago, Disneyland announced it would discontinue its Annual Passholder program and moved existing Passholders into a group it refers to as “Legacy Passholders.” And until a new program is announced, Legacy Passholders have continued to get some benefits.
Well, what a week it has been!!
Guests Don’t Have to Wear Masks Outdoors
In the early evening last Friday Disney announced a MAJOR change to their mask rules. Over the past few days, we’ve also seen changes made to social distancing, the early phasing out of temperature checks, the reopening of several restaurants, and more big news. Today we’re breaking down ALL the Disney news from this past week that you need to know!
Earlier this year, Disney World discontinued FREE MagicBands for guests at its resort hotels.
There Are Lots of MagicBand Designs to Choose From
Annual Passholders could still grab a free MagicBand with Annual Pass purchases (not currently available except in certain specific cases) and renewals. Soon, however, that will all be changing.
At the beginning of 2021, free MagicBands were discontinued for Disney World Resort guests.
There’s a MagicBand, too!
MagicBands are still very much around, even with the introduction of MagicMobile (which allows your phone to be your MagicBand), and Disney keeps introducing new designs! Now, one of the newest MagicBands is available at a discount for certain guests!
Although MagicBands are no longer offered for free to select Disney World guests, they are still readily available in the parks and online!
MagicBands EVERYWHERE
And there are TONS of designs to choose from to represent your favorite Disney things: from the Muppets to Mickey-shaped food to favorite attractions and more! And select Disney guests — Disney Resort Guests and Annual Passholders — can nab some of these special designs at a discount!
Orange Bird is so much fun, and we love seeing him around Disney World!
Orange Bird Mural
From sippers to spirit jerseys to Mickey ears, and more — Orange Bird is in SO many places! And we were SUPER excited when Disney World announced that the next Annual Passholder freebie, a magnet, would be Orange Bird-themed!
We get it — Disney World is expensive. That’s why we always try to share our best tips and tricks on how to save money at the parks!
Don’t be afraid to ask for free water!
From telling you about free water (yes, we’ll mention it every chance we can get) to how to save on portable chargers to trip discounts, we’ll let you know when we spot great deals and ways to save a few bucks. And yes, we’ll even tell you how to save on food!
Disneyland shared a ton of valuable information today to those hoping to visit the parks following their historic year-long closure. Among the information shared included dates on when tickets will go on sale, as well as when guests can begin to make those required park reservations.

If you’re a Disneyland Legacy Passholder, you’re probably wondering what this means for your ability to visit the parks once they reopen. We wish we had great news to share with you, but it looks like things could get a bit bumpy over the next couple of weeks.
Our handy (and portable!) ebook guides make sure you get the best deals and can plan a vacation of a lifetime.
