Walt Disney World has scheduled its first “Good-to-Go Days” for Annual Passholders following the Easter holiday period, with April 14 and 15, 2026, confirmed as reservation-free dates. These are the first such dates offered after the peak spring holiday season. Easter...
With the grand opening of a new adults-only lounge in EPCOT called GEO-82 just a day away, Disney has quietly removed two large trees from Dreamers Point—an area previously celebrated for its contemplative tribute to Walt Disney. The removal has sparked renewed scrutiny of EPCOT’s ongoing transformation, with critics accusing Disney of further sidelining families in favor of catering to childless adult travelers and upscale drinking experiences.
June has arrived, and with it comes the return of Disney’s annual PRIDE celebration at Walt Disney World. Guests visiting Magic Kingdom, EPCOT, Hollywood Studios, and Animal Kingdom will immediately notice rainbow-colored touches across the resort—from photo backdrops to updated murals and limited-time offerings.
Walt Disney World has launched a new marketing push called "Cool Kid Summer" that is mostly a gimmick of highlighted air conditioning experiences guests can enjoy (character meet and greets, the two "new" shows at Hollywood Studios). But there are a few perks and...
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.
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.
EPCOT’s newest premium upcharge has arrived, and once again, it’s not for the families who built the brand. Hot on the heels of the controversial announcement of the adults-only Spaceship Earth Lounge GEO-82, Walt Disney World has announced a new “Enchanting Extra”.
According to theme park news site Blog Mickey, the experience includes prime window seating for “Luminous: The Symphony of Us,” sommelier-selected bubbly, themed cocktails, and light fare. The cost? $179 per adult, plus tax and gratuity—and that’s excluding the park admission.
Walt Disney World's latest round of special discounts and promotions for Spring through Fall 2025 paints a clear picture: the House of Mouse is feeling pressure. Typically cautious with discounting strategies, Disney World’s announcement of a deeply discounted 3-Day,...
A massive fire broke out this evening behind EPCOT’s France Pavilion, sending thick black smoke billowing into the sky and rattling guests throughout the park. The smoke could be seen clearly from various vantage points around EPCOT, with sirens blaring as fire trucks raced to the scene.
It seems like Disney is once again turning its back on the families who built its empire in favor of the DINK (Dual Income No Kids) crowd and so-called Disney Adults. The latest evidence? EPCOT’s brand-new GEO-82 Spaceship Earth lounge, which is making headlines not for family-friendly offerings, but for being an exclusive, adults-only experience.
I’ve spent the last hour or so listening to some wonderful music from the past—not the Mozart kind of past, but the EPCOT past, and it made me think more than just warm, nostalgic, and happy thoughts of good times back in those yester-decades called the 1980’s which, I know, many of you were not blessed to be around in.
February 25th was the first day that Disney decided to have Tiana's Bayou Adventure function without a virtual queue, going to a normal line for the attraction, and boy did it not go well! For the first time ever, the Splash Mountain replacement was revealed to not be...
Disney has announced that the remaining attractions using its controversial Virtual Queue system, Guardians of the Galaxy: Cosmic Rewind at EPCOT and Tiana’s Bayou Adventure at Magic Kingdom, will transition to standby lines starting February 25, 2025.
