Disney has been bringing us a TON of news lately.

Genie+ is the PAID FastPass+ replacement service that can help you skip the lines at some of your favorite rides throughout the parks. We’ve already shared a comprehensive guide to Genie+ and a look at how the service is different in Disney World vs. Disneyland, but now something is changing for Genie+ users on the west coast.
Did you know that today, September 19th, is actually a holiday? Yep, it’s International Talk Like a Pirate Day.
Pirates of the Caribbean
Disney is celebrating this holiday too! You can ride Pirates of the Caribbean like every day in Disney World, or celebrate from afar with all sorts of Pirates merch. But, if you’re heading to Disney World, you can also take advantage of two PhotoPass Magic Shots that are available for today only!
It is Halloween Time at Disneyland Resort!
