food IS a theme park
Disney World is always full of fun surprises, and part of the fun is when something unexpected pops up!
Haunted Mansion
And we just found the most fun and BEST refurbishment sign we’ve ever seen in the parks!
There are several construction projects going on around Disney World that we’ve been keeping an eye on.
TRON Construction
Over at Magic Kingdom, we’ve got the TRON construction in progress. Plus, there’s some construction going on at Remy’s Ratatouille Adventure and Guardians of the Galaxy: Cosmic Rewind in EPCOT, as well as the Star Wars hotel elsewhere on property. Recently, we added another project to our watch list — the Magic Kingdom entry sign paint job.
Don’t get us wrong, Disney World has some pretty cool water slides. But it also has one that haunts our dreams. Yep, we’re talking about the Keister Coaster. You either love it…or you’re absolutely terrified of it.
Disney’s BoardWalk Inn Pool
This watery deluge ramp of circus-based nightmares is the main feature of Luna Park Pool at Disney’s BoardWalk Inn. To be fair, it’s a pretty great pool (and slide!). But if you happen to be scared of clowns, it might not be your favorite. Whether you love it or hate it, Luna Park Pool is getting some TLC — and we have pics!
Yesterday, we got the chance to sing along with all of our Frozen friends at the newly reopened For the First Time in Forever: A Frozen Sing-Along Celebration in Disney’s Hollywood Studios!
Frozen Show
This is one of the few spots you can see the Frozen sisters these days — the others being the Frozen Promenade cavalcade and the Frozen Ever After ride, both of which are in EPCOT. If you’re headed to Disney World in early November, however, you’ll have one less spot to catch up with your pals from Arendelle.
A prime spot at Disney’s Beach Club has been closed lately.
Beach Club Marketplace
Beach Club Marketplace has been getting some nondescript renovations for the past few weeks. In the meantime, we’ve been getting our souvenirs and snacks fix elsewhere in the resort, including with temporary offerings in the Solarium. Now, Beach Club Marketplace is BACK and we’re taking a look at the changes.
In case you missed it, Disney’s Polynesian Village Resort is set to going under a MAJOR refurbishment this year and next year!
Disney’s Polynesian Village Resort
The Monorail loop resort near the Magic Kingdom had its reopening for non-DVC guests delayed until mid-2021 so that guest rooms could get a Moana-themed makeover!
Disney World is in a constant state of change.
Liberty Square Riverboat
Sometimes, those changes boil down to refurbishments on beloved and long-standing attractions. We’ve seen permits that might point to some upcoming refurbs in Magic Kingdom and now, Disney has announced that TWO Magic Kingdom attractions will be closing for lengthy refurbishments.
The next few months are going to be an exciting time on the Disney World monorail loop!
Disney’s Polynesian Village Resort
Recently, Disney announced that Disney’s Polynesian Village Resort will not be reopening until the summer of 2021. This is because the resort will undergo a substantial refurbishment.
This refurb will include new Moana-inspired elements in locations like the Great Ceremonial House and the Guest rooms. Now, Disney Imagineers have shared even MORE details about this refurbishment — including concept art!
Just a few weeks ago, we shared with you that Disney’s Polynesian Village Resort will not be reopening until the summer of 2021 to finish some refurbishment work, including a Moana-inspired look for the Resort’s guest rooms.
Disney’s Polynesian Village Resort
The refurbishment work is set to begin in October, and now we’ve got a few updates on how that construction could impact your stay at Disney’s Polynesian Villas and Bungalows or simply a trip to dine at the resort.
We’ve had many delicious snacks on Disney’s BoardWalk recently.
Disney’s BoardWalk
If you’re staying at Disney’s BoardWalk Villas, we hope you’ve been taking advantage of all the yummy treats nearby! After you’ve filled up on all your favorite snacks, what’s better than a nice nap by the pool? Well, if you’re headed for a stay at the BoardWalk in October, the pool area may look a bit different while you’re there.
