Magic Kingdom!

There are major land expansions coming, rides closing permanently very soon, and so much more! While things are constantly changing, we are always watching for all of the news, big and small. Let’s chat about the three biggest Disney news stories from this week.

Planning guide for the ultimate Disney vacation

We’re going to dive right in with our news from this week from the latest drop! If you’re heading to Disney World soon, you might get to try some limited-time snacks and sweets while enjoying some special festivities. Disney World is bringing back its Easter celebrations with several desserts to enjoy during the holiday.

Not only will there be several snacks and sweets, but there will be a new adorable popcorn bucket and the return of the classic Easter Egg Displays at 4 of the Disney World resorts! We are suddenly craving chocolate, anyone else?

Next up, Disney gave us a behind-the-scenes look at some major ride updates coming! This year, we are expecting construction to start on the brand-new Cars land coming to Magic Kingdom! The new area will see Lightning McQueen, Mater, and their car friends leaving Radiator Springs to find new adventures and will bring 2 new attractions to Magic Kingdom.

Coming to Frontierland at Magic Kingdom, a new area themed to Pixar Animation Studios’ “Cars” will leave Radiator Springs and head to the wilderness with two new attractions including an off-road race.

This week, Disney shared some behind-the-scenes looks at the test track they’ve built for the attraction to begin testing the layout and terrain for the larger of the two attractions! They also shared the first looks at the vehicles for the attraction which is an off-road racing attraction.

We can’t wait to see more of this attraction which doesn’t have an expected opening date. Permits have been filed to begin work on the area, however, they haven’t broken ground just yet inside the park. That is expected to happen sometime in 2025!

Finally, we got another first look at one of the new parade floats coming to the brand-new Magic Kingdom nighttime parade! This summer, Disney Starlight – A Nighttime Parade is debuting in Magic Kingdom and we couldn’t be more excited. We’ve seen the concept art for several of the floats but now we got a glimpse at the Coco-inspired float and the official parade poster!

The poster features several of the parade’s characters like Elsa, Cinderella, Prince Charming, Miguel, Moana, Peter Pan, and the Blue Fairy. It also has stars falling down the poster which were cast by the Blue Fairy who will be bringing the parade to life each time it runs. Miguel is also the star of his own float which Disney also released.

The Coco float features Miguel, Dante, and Pepita! You can see them on the marigold bridge which leads to the land of the dead. The float will also feature mariachi music as they head down the parade route.
