food IS a theme park
We’re BACK in Downtown Disney!
Downtown Disney
And, boy, do we have some news! We spotted some exciting changes as Downtown Disney gets ready for the opening of Buena Vista Street, plus a TON of new merch. So, here’s everything new in construction and merchandise!
It’s no secret that the holidays have officially arrived at Disney.
California Adventure Christmas decor
We’ve seen decor all over Disney World, and even spotted some holiday spirit in a closed Disney California Adventure theme park. And with festive decor comes holiday merchandise! While we’ve seen a LOT of merch around Disney, this item we found is pretty unique.
Disneyland Resort is still mostly closed, but Downtown Disney is open for business, and soon, California Adventure’s Buena Vista Street will open with limited shopping and dining.
Downtown Disney
We’ve been keeping track of everything new going on at Disneyland — especially with shopping — and we just found TONS of new holiday and Marvel face masks there!
If you’re looking for a souvenir that’s fun AND functional, a water bottle is a great option!
Food and Wine Festival Water Bottles
We’ve seen several cute water bottles pop up in Downtown Disney at Disneyland Resort lately. From classic characters to 65th Anniversary designs, there are tons of options to choose from! But are you ready for this monstrous new addition??
We here at DFB, along with all of our West Coast friends, have been getting geared up and VERY excited for the opening of Buena Vista Street!
Disney California Adventure Park
Last month, Disney announced that the Buena Vista Street area of Disney California Adventure would be reopening for shopping and dining purposes as an extension of Downtown Disney. This news has been very exciting, as this is the first time in eight months that guests will be able to step into a Disneyland Resort park! In preparation for the opening of this area on November 19th, we’ve been anxiously watching the area for updates, and today we spotted Christmas decor!
Halloween may be over, but you can always keep the spooky spirit alive in your heart!
Jack Pin
Recently, we’ve spotted a number of new pins themed to Tim Burton’s The Nightmare Before Christmas and even some amazing new Nightmare Before Christmas purses, some of which sold out SUPER quickly! But, if you’re still looking to grab that EPIC Nightmare Before Christmas tote bag from Harveys, we found a spot where you can snatch it up!
Very soon, we’ll be stepping into Disney California Adventure Park to shop and dine on Buena Vista Street!
Red Car Trolley behind the Gates at Disney California Adventure Park
But, until then, we’re doing quite a bit of shopping at Downtown Disney’s World of Disney store! Today, we found a bunch of awesome sweatshirts that will make sure you’re warm, cozy, and cute throughout the winter season!
We’re checking out the latest in Downtown Disney and have some good finds!
World of Disney
World of Disney in Downtown Disney usually has some pretty spiffy merchandise for us to take buy. Now, we’ve found THREE of our favorite new pairs of ears from Disney World on the West Coast!
Although most of Disneyland Resort remains closed for the time being, Downtown Disney reopened for business this summer.
World of Disney at Downtown Disney
Downtown Disney stays pretty busy on weekends, weekdays tend to be quieter — except for today, when we noticed weekend-level crowds there.
Good news pumpkin fans, the fall flavors aren’t finished just yet!
Salted Caramel Pumpkin Pie Shake
We’ve already seen Christmas-themed treats start making their way into both Disney World and Disneyland this year. But if you’re still in the mood for some fall flavors, we have great news!
Our handy (and portable!) ebook guides make sure you get the best deals and can plan a vacation of a lifetime.
