food IS a theme park
There has been so much great content streaming on Disney+ this month from Hamilton to Muppets Now coming soon!

And, Beyoncé fans are in for an even bigger treat when the new film Black Is King that’s being released at the end of the month made by Queen Bey herself!
Welcome back, DFB friends! We’re here again with another What’s New at Disney Springs!
Disney Springs
And, we’ve got plenty of merchandise and food to share with you, so let’s dive right on in!
Although the Fourth of July was the beginning of this month, we’ve been feeling extra patriotic watching Hamilton on repeat at home!
Magic Kingdom
While we’ve been toting around the Fourth of July Loungefly Backpack and wearing star spangled shirts, we can’t help but want to put on the newest pair of sparkly ears in Disney World!
Now that Disney World has re-opened, the parks are testing new health and safety guidelines and adjusting protocol around limited park capacity to ensure guest and Cast Member safety.
Magic Kingdom Balloons
While we’ve known that Disney would be implementing a mandatory mask requirement for everyone on property, we’ve also noticed that they are required at all times on attractions. The only place guests are able to take them off are when they are swimming, visiting a relaxation station, or dining.
It’s been quite the journey heading back to Disney World (especially since the Skippers aboard the Jungle Cruise keep taking us on wild adventures to the backside of water).

While we’ve already seen the Jungle Cruise Dress, Funko Pop, Backpack, and more, we’re taking you with us to spy shirts that are perfect for a trek through Adventureland!
If you’re spending a whole day in Disney World, using your phone all day long can drain your battery pretty quickly in the parks.
Cinderella Castle
Although you can bring your own portable charger from home, one of the best tools in the park is the FuelRod option for guests. The stations located all throughout the parks and resorts allow guests to purchase a portable charger and swap it out once it has been drained of power.
After a long day of snacking around the 2020 Epcot Food and Wine Festival, sometimes you can’t help but crave a healthy dish or two. (You’ve got to get those fruits and veggies in somehow!)
Earth Eats
And, it’s a good thing that Earth Eats is back with plant-based items that your whole group will enjoy. Oh, and did we mention that there are SO MANY featured eats and drinks brought back from the Flower and Garden Festival at the booth this year??
SURPRISE! The 2020 Epcot Food and Wine Festival, which is starting earlier than ever before, opened even EARLIER during Cast Member Previews (and we’re not even the slightest bit mad about it).
Germany Food Booth
While we’re gearing up to bring you the foodie news of your dreams with reviews of ALL the booths at the festival this year, we’re taking a trip around the World Showcase to the sweet corner of the Germany booth!
Although many of us were expecting the 2020 A Taste of EPCOT Food and Wine Festival to open on July 15th along with the rest of EPCOT, we were surprised to see so many of the booths pop up in the park during Cast Member Previews!
Canada
While there were new eats and treats around the World Showcase, we were happy to see some of our favorite returning booths make their way back to the festival. And, we’re taking you with us to check out all the items that are back at the Canada Food Booth this year!
Magic Kingdom has been looking just as beautiful as ever since we’ve returned back to Disney World (especially with the redesign of Cinderella Castle).
Magic Kingdom
Although we’ve been exploring everything happening in the parks since they’ve opened again, we have loved being able to pick up new merchandise, like the Together Again collection!
Our handy (and portable!) ebook guides make sure you get the best deals and can plan a vacation of a lifetime.
