food IS a theme park
Jambo, everyone (that means hello, if you didn’t know)!
Tree of Life in Animal Kingdom
We go to the Disney World parks every day, and today we’re bringing you latest updates in construction, merchandise, and food from Disney’s wildest theme park — Animal Kingdom!
It’s been 13 years since Avatar was released in theaters, earning over $2.8 billion, making it the highest grossing movie of all time. It inspired an entire area in Disney’s Animal Kingdom, Pandora — The World of Avatar (which is celebrating its 5th Anniversary soon, by the way), and since the initial movie’s release, many have been eagerly waiting for information about its sequel.
Pandora — the World of Avatar
We recently got to see the teaser trailer for the new movie, Avatar: The Way of Water, and when it is released, James Cameron is hoping to reintroduce a dying film medium: films in 3D.
Disney World’s 50th Anniversary isn’t the only celebration happening around the parks!
Pandora — the World of Avatar
A ton of celebrations will take place on May 27th too! While Guardians of the Galaxy: Cosmic Rewind will officially launch in EPCOT that day, an entirely different celebration will be taking place as well. That celebration is the 5-year anniversary of the opening of Pandora — The World of Avatar! And if you can’t visit Animal Kingdom to celebrate, no worries! You’re able to snag some celebratory merchandise from home!
Have you had the chance to check out Pandora: The World of Avatar at Disney’s Animal Kingdom?
Pandora: The World of Avatar
This remarkable and truly immersive area of the park is themed after the James Cameron movie Avatar, and May 27th marks the land’s five-year anniversary of being open in Animal Kingdom. And now — thirteen years later — the world is finally getting an Avatar sequel. Disney just shared a brand-new teaser trailer for the film and we’re sharing the details!
There’s a LOT going on in Disney World right now. The 50th Anniversary is still happening, and you can find treats and celebrations throughout the parks. EPCOT is going through a massive transformation with new restaurants, rides, and attractions all coming to the park. And part of that huge transformation is the opening of Guardians of the Galaxy: Cosmic Rewind! This coaster is officially opening to guests on May 27th, 2022. But that’s not the only exciting thing happening on that day!

Today, we’re bringing you what’s new in Animal Kingdom, so let’s jump right into it!

Pandora in Animal Kingdom
Let’s start off the week right by taking a look at what’s new in Animal Kingdom!
Disney doesn’t really have a hard time dominating the box office.
Avengers Photo Op
With properties like Pixar, Marvel, Star Wars, and more, many of the most successful movies at the box office have been Disney movies. Marvel and Sony’s Spider-Man: No Way Home has been doing incredibly well at the box office, and the movie just broke a major record that was previously held by another Disney property.
Do you know what we haven’t seen lately? A new banshee! Pandora, located in Disney’s Animal Kingdom, has so many neat souvenirs that you can’t find anywhere else. Remember back when those fancy Banshee puppet toys came out? People LOVED them! Now, Disney finally released a NEW take on the banshee toy, and this time it’s even MORE impressive!
What’s new at Windtraders?
Disney’s new merchandise is made for friends (you’ll see why in a second)! Come with us as we take a look at the NEW toy we found at the Windtraders store in Disney’s Animal Kingdom.
Have you ever ridden Avatar Flight of Passage in Disney’s Animal Kingdom? If so, you’ll probably know what we’re talking about.
Flight of Passage
If you’ve visited Pandora in Animal Kingdom or seen the movie Avatar, you might already know what a Banshee is. Basically, it’s a dragon-like creature that Avatar characters ride, and you get a chance to ride one yourself on the ride Flight of Passage. You can also “adopt” (aka purchase) your very own Banshee toy — and we have a bit of an update!
