There has been yet another fire-related incident inside EPCOT—this time not behind the scenes, but in a popcorn cart right in the middle of a guest area. Onlookers watched as flames visibly erupted from the popping chamber with smoke pouring into the air. This monorail-themed popcorn cart was stationed in World Celebration, dangerously close to the Imagination! Pavilion.
One of the things we've been paying attention to since the Disney Earnings Call last week is whether or not Disney is counting their after-hours ticketed events as attendance. They're clearly very popular, and they're clearly a locals-driven sell-out machine in...
There’s a video making the rounds on TikTok right now that perfectly captures everything wrong with what EPCOT has become. Nine full-grown adults, drinks in hand, shouting the Star-Spangled Banner in front of the American Adventure pavilion as though they were frat boys on a bender—culminating in one of them leaping into the decorative fountain and sloshing around like it’s a Vegas pool party.
Has President Trump come to Disneyland?
A new artistic decision at Disneyland is raising eyebrows—and more than a few chuckles—as fans react to a revamped silhouette of Walt Disney installed as part of the resort’s 70th anniversary esplanade display. But it’s not the pose or Mickey Mouse that’s catching attention. It’s the hair.

The Magic Kingdom is getting a new lounge—a Pirates Bar. Disney is calling it a “unique new experience” for fans of Pirates of the Caribbean.

The iconic Parisian landmark, featured in Soarin’ Around the World, has long appeared unnaturally curved when viewed from the sides of the theater. Now, Disney has finally decided to straighten things out—literally.

In one of the most stunning displays of trying to have your cake and eat it too, Disney touted both its new Abu Dhabi theme park and Disneyland’s Pride Night event on the same day.
The Walt Disney Company made waves this week with its announcement of a brand-new theme park and resort coming to Abu Dhabi in the United Aram Emirates. While the project marks Disney’s seventh global theme park destination, it also marks a new chapter in the company’s corporate strategy: doing business in regions that impose significant restrictions on personal freedoms, expression, and dissent.
The Walt Disney Company just made a major announcement—but it’s not one that will cost them much upfront. Disney is expanding its theme park footprint to the Middle East, teaming up with Miral to bring a brand-new park and resort to Yas Island in Abu Dhabi. This marks Disney’s seventh global theme park resort, but unlike the company’s $60 billion investment plan for its other parks, this one is being built entirely on someone else’s dime.
