Happy June! If you're headed to the Walt Disney World Resort this month get ready for some retail therapy thanks to a full slate of merchandise events at the theme parks and new stores at Disney Springs.
The Jungle Book: Alive with Magic is now showing nightly at Disney's Animal Kingdom on the Discovery River. The limited-engagement show was announced earlier this spring after Disney pushed back the opening date for the planned River of Light show.
In just a few weeks guests can take a flight around the world on Soarin' Around the World at Epcot's The Land pavilion. Right now though, fans have one more chance to enjoy the "classic" version of Soarin' before it is gone forever on June 16.
Disney's Animal Kingdom has officially become a new hot spot at the Walt Disney World Resort thanks to the brand-new nighttime experiences starting this weekend and the grand opening of Tiffins and the Nomad Lounge!
The newest live stage show at the Magic Kingdom is set to debut on June 17 at Cinderella Castle Forecourt Stage. Mickey's Royal Friendship Faire stars Mickey Mouse, his "troupe of Merry Makers," and friends from other lands.
This weekend is the official start of summer and at the Walt Disney World Resort that means it is time to "Awaken Summer." Each of the four theme parks, and one of the water parks, is celebrating summer with new experiences.
Disney Springs is adding another restaurant to its lineup with the grand opening of STK Orlando today! This signature dining restaurant officially opens at 5 p.m. ET, but the restaurant gave a sneak peek during a preview event on May 24.
Disney's Hollywood Studios is the destination for Star Wars fans this summer. Guests can already enjoy the Star Wars Launch Bay, the Star Wars: A Galaxy Far, Far Away stage show, and the daily march of Captain Phasma and her First Order Stormtroopers. And in just a few weeks a new fireworks spectacular begins.
Disney's Animal Kingdom is set to become a nighttime destination for the first time ever starting Friday, May 27. That's when guests will finally have a chance to experience the park's attractions at night in addition to brand-new nighttime events.
Disney Springs welcomed another new food kiosk over the weekend. AristoCrepes joins B.B. Wolf's Sausage Co., The Daily Poutine, YeSake, and others as new spots to get some great food at the re-imagined shopping, dining, and entertainment district.
