food IS a theme park
If you are a massive Disney fan, it’s likely you know all about Destination D23, a Disney fan event led by the official Disney fan club.

Last year’s event was postponed due to the global health crisis, but Destination D23 is back this year!
The time has come! It’s out with the old and in with the new.
Happily Ever After
The fan-favorite fireworks show Happily Ever After has officially played its last performance! Although Disney fans will miss this heartwarming show, Disney Enchantment is about to make its debut in the park. We’ve been getting pumped with a look at the new music and sneak peek at the show, but in the meantime let’s watch Happily Ever After for the last time!
It’s almost here — Disney World’s 50th Anniversary Celebration kicks off NEXT WEEK!
Happily Ever After
There’s SO much new stuff to look forward to at the parks, including new merchandise, the gold character statues, the opening of Remy’s Ratatouille Adventure, and two NEW nighttime fireworks shows! Want to watch Disney Enchantment (Magic Kingdom’s new show) and Harmonious (EPCOT’s new fireworks show), but you won’t be in the Disney theme parks next week? No problem!
Oh, Disney…you really know how to pull us in!
Mickey Mouse
The company knows how to play with our emotions. Disney can make us cry nostalgia-induced tears by playing “When You Wish Upon a Star” in a TV commercial, or they can make us almost pass out from excitement when they announce dozens of new Disney+ shows at once. We thought something similar was going to happen yesterday when Disney promoted a livestream on Twitter for an event. We, of course, tuned in, because usually, we get some big announcements from these sort of things. But, that is NOT what happened, not even close.
Avengers Campus is opening NEXT WEEK!
Avengers Campus
We’re getting excited (and we’re sure you are, too!). There will be tons of new eats, exciting merch, and character encounters to explore, and we can’t wait to be inside doing it all. But while we wait for June 4th, we can tune into a Disney event that will give us a peek inside.
It’s been a HUGE week for Disney World!
Celebration of The Festival of The Lion King
Although much of Disney World’s entertainment was suspended when the parks reopened, we’re starting to see some shows return to the parks. And one of the most popular shows at Disney World, a modified version of Festival of the Lion King at Disney’s Animal Kingdom, soft opened this past week!
Maybe it’s because 2020 is the Year of the Rat or maybe it’s because the Remy’s Ratatouille Adventure attraction opens next year at Disney World, but the world has become obsessed with Ratatouille recently!
Remy’s Ratatoutille Adventure Sign
It all started with a few videos on TikTok about a Ratatouille musical. Then there were more videos. Then Disney Parks posted its own video with Zombies actor Milo Manheim rapping about Remy and his adventures.
Disney World is always changing, evolving, and growing — even more so lately due to the global health crisis. Although we’ve seen some of our favorite attractions and entertainment returning, some are going away forever.
The Disney Society Orchestra and Friends
Live entertainment has also changed throughout the Disney World resort, and we recently learned we’ll soon have to say goodbye to Disney’s Grand Floridian Society Orchestra.
