food IS a theme park
Have you heard? Fireworks are returning to Disney World!
Holiday Projections (and brief surprise fireworks!) at Cinderella Castle
Starting July 1st, we’re seeing Happily Ever After come back to Magic Kingdom, along with EPCOT Forever in EPCOT. And people are clearly excited — Park Pass reservations are going FAST! But the return of these nighttime spectaculars brings up other questions…namely about the After Hours BOO Bash event debuting in August.
It’s no secret that Disney World has a LOT of merch up for grabs.
Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge
Some of it may not be worth it, while others certainly are (at least to us, anyway). But today, we’re traveling to a galaxy far, far away (aka Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge) to check out a particularly debated souvenir.
Disney World’s pretty famous for its mountains.
Big Thunder Mountain Railroad
Of course, we’ve got the 3 big mountains in Magic Kingdom — Space Mountain, Splash Mountain, and Big Thunder Mountain Railroad — but we can’t forget about Expedition Everest over in Disney’s Animal Kingdom! And while LOTS of people say these are some of the best rides in Disney World, we wondered which one would come out on top.
When it comes to eating in Disney World, there are SO many options to choose from!
Cinderella Castle
We’ve tried just about everything at Disney World, but we often wonder which restaurants are overrated and underrated according to our readers! Whether you are a fan of classic Disney restaurants like ‘Ohana, or newer restaurants like Topolino’s Terrace, we’re here to see if YOUR favorite restaurant is actually overrated!
When visiting the Magic Kingdom, you will have to make some hard choices!
Magic Kingdom
In every single land, it seems like there are decisions to be made! Should you ride Splash Mountain or Big Thunder Mountain Railroad? Should you buy a Disney World T-shirt or Minnie ears?!
Running short on time in Disney World?
Magic Kingdom
It’s really hard to do everything in Disney. And sometimes, a tight schedule means you only have half a day to spend in a park! Now, each of the 4 parks has its own must-dos — and you could make an argument for spending a full day (or more!) in any of ’em. But how do YOU decide which park should be YOUR half-day?
Even though it’s not opening until next year, we’re getting excited for Star Wars: Galactic Starcruiser!

This “hotel” is actually more of a 2-night experience, and it will throw guests straight into the middle of their very own Star Wars adventure. There will be cool restaurants, a lightsaber training experience, and SO much more. And it all sounds like a ton of fun!
It seems like Disney World is FILLED with tough choices.
Will you drop into The Twilight Zone?
You’ve got to pick which snacks you want to try, which rides you want to wait in line for, and how you’ll spend that souvenir budget. And sometimes, those decisions can be TRICKY!
Since the parks reopened last year, there have been quite a few changes.
Mickey and Minnie’s Runaway Railway
To name just a few, Annual Pass sales have been suspended and many locations around property remain closed (although several are reopening!). And of course, FastPass+ is still temporarily unavailable.
Earlier this week, Disney World announced that they began testing a new facial recognition technology for park entry.
Cinderella Castle
It’s just another way the Disney park experience seems to be going hands-free, in the wake of the new MagicMobile service, and My Disney Experience updates that enable Mobile Order, digital merchandise check out, and more. But this tech-y new feature seems like a BIG step into the future…and a big change overall.
