After taking a break last week to celebrate Thanksgiving, we have two weeks of fun and news to catch up on! So, in case you missed it... Plans for a new Main Street Theater and a TRON lightcycle coaster were announced this summer at D23. These new attractions are planned for Magic Kingdom Park at Walt Disney World® and the building permits were filed this week. An exciting step forward! After a brief refurbishment, the new Ale and Compass Restaurant is now open at Disney's Ya

Much like Walt Disney World®'s FastPass+ system, the FASTPASS system at Disneyland® Park and Disneyland's California Adventure® Park is a free tool that you can use to help save time and do more in the parks. Who wouldn't want to take advantage of that? Disneyland's FASTPASS system is a kiosk system that can be accessed in the park during your visit. It is available for select attractions in both Disneyland® Park and Disneyland's California Adventure®. Here's how it works: 1.

The most magical time of year is even more magical when you spend it at a Disney Parks® destination. Walt Disney World® may have Mickey's Very Merry Christmas Party, but Disneyland® has its own special holiday celebration that should be at the top of your must do list when visiting Walt's original park. Disneyland Park® decks the halls from top to bottom, including special holiday overlays of "it's a small world" and the Haunted Mansion. In addition to the classic "it's a sma

Disneyland® is home to two amazing parks, each with distinct lands, attractions, entertainment, and dining options. Part I covered all of the history and nostalgia in Disneyland Park's eight lands. Part II is all about Disneyland’s California Adventure, where stories from Disney®, Pixar®, and Marvel® come to life through attractions, character greetings, entertainment, and more.

Walt Disney World® made several big holiday reveals this week as all four parks prepare to celebrate the most wonderful time of year in the most magical place on earth. Jingle Cruise, the holiday overlay

Rider Switch isn't a secret Disney Parks® service, but I have found that not many families know it exists or how to utilize it. If you look around you while at Walt Disney World® or Disneyland® you'll spot a familiar scene: little ones waiting with Mom or Dad at a ride exit while the other parent takes the older sibling on the ride. When the child and adult exit the ride, the group moves along to the next attraction or stop on their itinerary with one or more adults missing o

If you're traveling to Walt Disney World® or Disneyland® in the month of October, you'll want to check out the list below attractions temporarily closed for refurbishment and special events. Please note that the dates listed below are subject to change at any time. It is always best to pick up a Times Guide when you enter any park to confirm an attraction's operational hours for that day and special event times.

If your family is anything like mine, you are counting down the days until the next Disney movie release. I think the only films my husband and I have seen in the theater over the last 5 years have been from Walt Disney Studios and Disney-Pixar. This Oh My Disney quiz? Nailed it. Needless to say, we are all looking forward to Disney-Pixar's next movie, "Coco." I've been anxious to see how this movie will be incorporated into Walt Disney World® (Mexico pavilion maybe?), but un
