food IS a theme park
Hi there, DFB friends! We’re back with more of what’s new at Disney’s Hollywood Studios!
Tower of Terror
There’s some food and construction news as well as Star Wars: Rise of the Resistance news, so let’s get into it!
If there’s anything Disney World guests are good at it, it’s standing in line. ?
Line for Space Mountain
Let’s face it — you have to stand in line for everything at Disney World: for transportation, for rides, for food, for shopping, and for pretty much everything else. But not every line is created equal…
Have you ever been on a Disney World attraction and hear a familiar voice or see a familiar face that you just KNOW from somewhere?
Pirates of the Caribbean
Like maybe it was at Magic Kingdom on Pirates of the Caribbean or maybe you were at EPCOT watching Canada Far and Wide. Or maybe some of those characters on the Dinosaur video at Disney’s Animal Kingdom look familiar.
Summer is officially here, the EPCOT International Food & Wine Festival has begun, fireworks are back, and more changes are on the way soon for Disney World.
EPCOT
As you might expect, summer vacation and special events like the start of a festival can draw in more crowds. What did the average wait times in Disney World look like this past week? Today we’re taking a look and sharing all the details with you.
When visiting Disney World, one thing you definitely want to be aware of is wait times!
Line starts here!
We’re constantly on the My Disney Experience app to check the stand-by wait times for rides (we need to know the SECOND Splash Mountain drops under 30 minutes!), especially because there still aren’t any Fast Passes in Disney World! There are attractions that almost always have really long waits, like Flight of Passage and Slinky Dog Dash, and those that you can usually walk on, like the Swiss Family Robinson Treehouse. Let’s take a look at all the average wait times around Disney World this week!
Here at DFB, we’ve been lucky enough to spot quite a few celebrities in the parks!
Magic Kingdom
Just like us, they like to visit Disney World with their families and enjoy a little magic from time to time. Whether they’re there for work or pleasure, it can be a little challenging to spot them if you’re not looking in the right places — the parks are pretty big, and usually, these people are just trying to blend into the crowd. But don’t worry, if you’re looking to find some famous people, there are a few places where you can always find them in the Disney World parks!
It’s already been a BIG morning, friends!
Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge
It’s May the 4th, and Disney’s been celebrating by giving us lots more details on the Star Wars: Galactic Starcruiser hotel, which is opening in 2022! We’ve learned what kind of dining we can expect, and even gotten a peek at the REAL lightsaber that will debut with the hotel. But we’re kickin’ off the holiday in other ways, too…including with some brand-new Star Wars merch!
Disney is OBSESSED with details.
Mickey and Minnie’s Runaway Railway
They’ll go the extra mile to add in a secret or two when it comes to constructing a park, theming a new attraction, or creating a new experience. And, a lot of it is so secretive that the average park-goer will completely miss it. From nods to history to secret levels in rides and loads of other cool things only Disney can do — we’re letting you in on all the secrets that Disney packed into Hollywood Studios to make the park extra special for new and long-time visitors.
Disney’s Hollywood Studios is FULL of fan-favorite rides and attractions.
Disney’s Hollywood Studios
But have you ever stopped to think about which ones YOU think are underrated or overrated? We asked our readers to rank ALL of the rides in Hollywood Studios one by one. Some of the answers were a little surprising, and others were very much expected, but let’s see what you said!
One thing we’ve noticed in all our years going to Disney World is that not all seat rides are good ones.
Welcome to Disney’s Hollywood Studios!
We’ve told you the best seats in the house in Magic Kingdom and EPCOT, now we’re moving on to TinselTown! We’ve already told you about everything you shouldn’t miss at Disney’s Hollywood Studios, but now we’re going to let you know which seats on rides are the absolute best and worst there!
