Tinker Bell’s New Meet-and-Greet Location at the Magic Kingdom

Tinker Bell has a new place to call home at the Magic Kingdom.

Everyone's favorite pixie is now greeting guests inside Tinker Bell's Magical Nook on Main Street, U.S.A., and there is some Disney magic at work during the meet-and-greet.

As guests enter the Garden Theater in the Town Square Theater they are magically "shrunk" down to fairy size so they can fit inside Tink's home.

Doughnut Sundae at the Main Street Plaza Ice Cream Parlor

You've made it to rope drop at the Magic Kingdom and now you need a little something to eat. Who says you can't have ice cream for breakfast? It's totally in the realm of possibility at Walt Disney World. No? How about we add a doughnut into the mix! That's breakfast food if I've ever heard of it.

Disney Parks & Movies Connection: Follow Me Boys

The last film that Walt Disney lived to see through its completion was Follow Me Boys, a live-action film that tells a love story that centers on a man who settles down in a small town and forms a Boy Scout troop. Just as the world lost Walt Disney 50 years ago this year, Follow Me Boys, in turn, celebrates its 50th anniversary this month. Although the film is largely forgotten except among dedicated Disney fans, it is significant in Disney history for its characterization of Walt Disney's brand of storytelling.

The Magic Kingdom's Festival of Fantasy Parade

Over the years I haven't been known to be much of a parade fan. However, on my last trip to Walt Disney World's Magic Kingdom I was absolutely blown away by my first viewing of the Disney Festival of Fantasy Parade. Just a little over a year old (it debuted February 10th, 2014) this is a production on a grand scale and kicks off in the afternoon to continue the Disney tradition of classic parades in the Magic Kingdom.

The Top 10 Things We Love Most about the Magic Kingdom

For many people when they hear the words "I'm going to Disney World" the first image that comes to mind is Cinderella Castle at the Magic Kingdom. As the original theme park at Walt Disney World Resort the Magic Kingdom is pretty much synonymous with the words 'Walt Disney World.'

The Magic Kingdom is home to a variety of great counter service locations and no matter what you're craving, you're sure to find that perfect place.

In The Utilidors: Disney Underground

Every night, the fireworks explode above Cinderella Castle and the guests watching in awe might easily forget that they are actually standing on the second floor of the Magic Kingdom. Below their feet, a small city is hard at work making Disney Magic possible. The entrances to the utilidors are all around us as we travel through Magic Kingdom, but because we have no need to locate them, the doors blend seamlessly into the scenery.
