Eeeekkssss…. there is so much going on at Walt Disney World!! We can’t wait to share it with you!!
My family and I just returned from an amazing, fun filled couple of days at WDW and I cannot wait to return this fall- it truly might be the best time ever to visit. From now until the end of the year Disney is offering something for everyone - from night time parties, the food and wine festival, rides on the new Skyliner and not to mention GALAXY'S EDGE GRAND OPENING!
ITS FINALLY HERE! Galaxy's Edge is opening August 29, 2019. The new land inside Disney's Hollywood Studios is set to open with one of its two rides, Millennium Falcon: Smugglers Run as well as dining and unique merchandise for purchase. The other headlining attraction, Star Wars: Rise of the Resistance, is set to open Dec. 5, 2019.
PRO TIP: Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge will offer Extra, Extra Magic Hours from 6 a.m - 9 a.m until Nov. 2 for guests staying at any Disney Resort hotels and other good neighbor resorts. From what I have heard from my inside connections the experience is unlike anything else available at any theme park out there.
How will you get to The Studios? The Skyliner of course!
The Skyliner takes flight on September 29th! It will connect both Hollywood Studios and Epcot to Disney resorts that include Riviera, Caribbean Beach, Pop Century and Art of Animation. Disney’s Caribbean Beach Resort station will be the hub of activity for The Disney Skyliner. At this station, you will be able to transfer gondola routes to reach their destination, or are invited to sit and admire the waterfront resort setting that embodies the beauty of the tropics! This will be a fun, quick way to get from park to park or back to your resort (if you are staying at one of the ones connected) in a jif!
Luxe + Wander + Magic’s favorite fall events: Mickey's Not So Scary Halloween Party and The Food and Wine Festival!
Mickey's Not So Scary is a separate ticketed event at the Magic Kingdom. The party hours are 7PM to 12AM, but party guests can arrive as early as 4PM. The last show is at 12AM, and you can hang around and shop for a bit after that. It is the one time a year that Disney encourages adults and kids to dress up is their best halloween gear and celebrate with wonderful character interactions, LOTS of candy, unreal fireworks and a very special parade! This super fun event should definitely be experienced at least once! Let's talk if you want to attend- there are certain nights each week that we can help you secure. Pro Tip: The Boo to You Parade during the party is the best Disney parade all year long - this event is a MUST DO and fills up fast - contact us today to get your party tickets!
The Food and Wine Festival is another event not to be missed in 2019.
There will be over 30 marketplace booths set up throughout the World showcase in Epcot for your dining pleasure. Make sure you come hungry to this event that come with your park admission ticket to Epcot. The unique food and wine offerings cater to every palate, sample small plates and cocktails from each booth! PRO TIP: You can use your Disney Dining Plan snack credits for small plates around the World Showcase. Our very own founder doesn’t miss a Food and Wine Festival in Disney and you shouldn’t either - perfect for a quick adult-only getaway! What goes along with great food and cocktails - a kick butt, star-studded entertainment schedule on the Epcot Stage every evening!
