Universal’s been busy bees lately, building multiple theme parks, hotels, and more all around the same time. As Epic Universe’s construction has come to a close and welcomed in its first public visitors before its official opening day, Universal seems to be turning its focus to its other theme park projects and how much more they can expand on existing plans.
Is this real life or just a glitch in the Matrix? Nope, it’s real — and it’s actually a huge Disney deal.
Animal Kingdom Lodge
One of Disney World’s most iconic and expensive resorts — Disney’s Animal Kingdom Lodge — is suddenly way more affordable than usual. We’re talking prices so low, they made us double-check the math. And yes, it involves those Savanna View rooms. Let’s talk about what’s going on, who qualifies, and why this deal is blowing up right now.
Who wants to go to Disney World? Have you been considering a trip to Florida? Have you been waiting for the perfect deal to come along? You’re in luck! Disney just announced a NEW deal for Disney fans from the UK and Ireland, and (spoiler alert) it involves FREE dining.

As anyone who’s been to Walt Disney World knows, there are literally thousands of souvenirs you can bring back from the resort on any given visit. Some of the most interesting can be found in EPCOT’s World Showcase, where each of the international pavilions features goods from the country they represent.
Universal has been making great progress on their new Epic Universe theme park which is expected to open in Orlando in 2025. Lots of rides have been testing and we have gotten LOTS of details about what to expect in each of the themed lands.

Universal Studios has been the talk of the town recently.
Universal Orlando
News of the newest Universal Orlando theme park, Epic Universe, has gone viral. 5 new themed lands along with new rides, restaurants, and shops will be opening up sometime in 2025. But Epic Universe isn’t the only new Universal theme park we need to be on the lookout for. A possible Universal destination could be in the works in the UK, and now, they have the backing of the local government.
Sure, EPCOT has a lot of fun rides, but do we really go to EPCOT JUST for the rides?
World Showcase is BEAUTIFUL
We also go for the food (obviously), mostly because we can literally eat and drink our way around the World (Showcase) in a single day! But within each World Showcase country pavilion are Cast Members FROM that country, and some of these international Cast Members recently shared some… interesting facts with us about where they’re from.
