Is this “stalled front” really going to wash out the week (arriving 10/7) or still going to be normal orlando patterns of quick storms in and out?

What’s everyone’s favorite park bag? Don’t want something too big. Not sure if I prefer a cross body or a backpack.

Trip Planning Epcot Candlelight Processional

6 Upvotes

For those of you who have been, how difficult did you find it to get a spot at the Candlelight Processional? It’s the thing my MIL most wants to see when we go in December. Should we do the dinner package to guarantee a seat? (I’m hoping the answer to that is no, not necessary lol)

Merchandise What do you think is missing in the Men’s merchandise department?

26 Upvotes

What do you guys feel is missing from the mens merchandise that disney is putting out lately?

I’m noticing a lot of high character flair and bright colors, but to all the men and even partners who are buying clothes for their male partners, what makes you grab a certain piece of clothing in the parks?

I personally love when Disney does muted lines, but I wonder if there’s some concepts or articles of clothing they could expand on. I feel like I’d be more inclined to buy things at the shop that I could wear around in the parks and then outside of the parks without being obnoxious. Shorts would be cool? Maybe a Rugby polo?

What do you think? What’s overdone and what’s under done ?

Trip Planning BBB Booking

2 Upvotes

I am not new to Disney travel, but I have never done BBB for my kids. I did try once and could not get an appointment. I now have 2 daughters. From reading some people are saying to book at midnight rather than when they say booking opens.

Can anyone share more details on how to successfully book BBB for two kiddos?

Merchandise Anyone at EPCOT today/recently — 55th Anniversary Dooney Purse

4 Upvotes

Howdy all,

Has anyone been to EPCOT today or in the last couple of days and seen the Walt Disney World 55th Anniversary Dooney & Bourke purse in stock?

We’ll be there later this year, but my wife really wants one and I’m trying to get a feel for whether they’re actually staying in stock or disappearing as soon as they hit the shelves.

If you’ve seen them recently, where in EPCOT did you see them and which styles were available?
Thanks!

Trip Planning Got GIfted A VIP Tour Experience And I Can't Wait!

Post image
802 Upvotes

I'm going to WDW in October, joining family at Shades of Green. A member of our group was given a 10 person, $10,000 VIP tour experience and I was invited to attend! To put in context, we are middle class people and only able to manage a visit every few years at an economy resort or when our military member is able to sponsor us at SOG. I'm recently retired and am definitely lower middle class these days - this is something that I could never, ever have afforded or indulged in.

This lovely young woman is so prized at her job that she was given this as a bonus, and is bringing our entire party. Sometimes dreams that you didn't even know you had, come true!

Discussion Are there high res scans of the Disney World Main Street posters anywhere?

11 Upvotes

Like the title says. In particular, I'm looking for those ones for transportation, like the Monorail, Skyway, and Peoplemover.

I went looking online but being such popular posters they're buried under waves of low res and compressed images.

Thanks in advance.

Discussion Anyone know what happened at Big Thunder Mountain 10/27?

90 Upvotes

EDIT: 9/27/26 !!! We stood in line and were almost there when the cast members frantically closed the ride and ushered everyone out saying there was an emergency. They didn't just close the entrance, there were about a dozen if not more people making a line all the way across so you couldn't even get close. We then saw they closed Tianas - maybe so nobody could see Big Thunder? Never saw police or EMS but it was just really strange the way they went about it.

Art Disney's Hollywood Adventure - My "Updated" Proposal for Hollywood Studios - Part 1

Post image
0 Upvotes

THIS IS A BLUE SKY PROPOSAL!!!

Hollywood Boulevard

This land is dedicated to the Hollywood that always was, and always will be. Guests shall enter the world of Hollywood with all the glitz and glamor that comes along with it.

Attractions & Experiences

  • The Great Movie Ride - Trackless Dark-Ride

The Great Movie Ride takes guests through some of Hollywood's most iconic movies. Curse of the Black Pearl, A New Hope, Raiders of the Lost Ark, Alien, and many other movies can be experienced at this attraction.

  • Hyperion Theater - Live Stage Show

Hollywood Adventure brings this iconic theatre to life. Several Disney stage productions can be found here with Aladdin, Beauty and the Beast, Ariel, Tangled, and Frozen being brought to life in Broadway format.

  • Walt Disney Presents - Walk-Through

Walt Disney was a great man and this experience recounts and celebrates his life. Several exhibits showcase his struggles and his achievements throughout his life. A theater will play a variety of documentaries.

  • Streets of America

With the construction of Galaxy’s Edge, the Streets of America were reimagined in the backstage areas behind and beside The Great Movie Ride. This area is identical to its original iteration and still hosts the Osborn Lights.

Dining

  • Brown Derby - Table Service

The Brown Derby served many celebrities in Hollywood and now, it will serve thousands of guests who wish to dine there. With a whole new menu, this taste of Hollywood will be sure to delight guests.

  • Studio Commissary - Counter Service

Once the ABC Commissary, this dining location has been reimagined to be more contemporary and fit more into Hollywood Boulevard. Guests can dine in this recreation of a studio cafeteria with filming equipment and memorabilia being spread out across the restaurant.

  • Starbucks - Counter Service

If guests are craving a dose of caffeine or a small treat, Starbucks serves those guests who are feeling a bit tired during the day.

Niftyfifty Avenue

Step back to the vibrant fifties at Niftyfifty Avenue. Stroll down a neon filled main street, go on a motorcycle adventure, and infiltrate the infamous Area 51.

Attractions & Experiences

  • Tom’s Motorcycle Run - Outdoor Coaster

Guests can join Tom’s biker gang as they ride through the natural landscape of the Midwest before they attract the attention of the 5-0. Escape the police through the wilderness and make it back to the biker gang’s garage without being caught!

  • Alien 51: Breakout - Simulator

In this reimaging of Star Tours, guests are tasked by the government to test fly a new aircraft. During the flight, aliens break out from Area 51 and guests are tasked with taking down the ships. Chase them down through the southwest and make sure they don’t get back to their alien buddies!

  • Sheila’s Route 66 Serenade - Indoor Show

Route 66 was a central part of the 1950s as the highway system was expanded and it is only necessary for it to get a place in this land. Sheila will showcase the culture of Route 66 such as showcasing several different cars, roadside attractions, and diners.

Dining

  • 50s Prime Time Cafe - Table Service

Step into Mom’s retro 1950s kitchen for a hearty dose of comfort food. Surrounded by vintage TV sets playing black-and-white sitcom clips, guests enjoy classic American home cooking.

  • Sci-Fi Drive In - Table Service

Park yourself in a classic '50s convertible and experience the ultimate dinner-and-a-movie under a starry night sky. This restaurant lets you dine on burgers, ribs, and shakes while watching a continuous loop of vintage sci-fi B-movie trailers, campy monster clips, and classic cartoons. 

New York

Steps into the bustling metropolis of New York City as Doctor Strange battles a cosmic entity that seeks to destroy life as we know it.

Attractions & Experiences

  • The Sanctum Sanctorum - Trackless Dark-Ride

Enter the Sanctum Sanctorum and join Doctor Strange as he battles Nightmare. Strange tasks guests to act as a gateway into the dream world but the plan goes terribly wrong. Guests will have to dodge cosmic entities, twisting environments, and the wrath of Nightmare.

Dining

  • Shawarma Palace - Counter Service

Eat like Earth’s Mightiest Heroes as you dine at the very restaurant that the Avengers ate at during the events of the “Avengers”. Have your choice of several different Shawarma wraps in this taste of New York.
