Nearly 50 New Treats and Drinks Coming to Disney World This Fall

Foodie Guide By September 4, 2026 Tags: , , , , No Comments

Walt Disney World Resort is rolling out nearly 50 new snacks and sips this fall, and there’s something for everyone. Whether you’re after a new spin on the classic Mickey waffle, a churro mashup, or a specialty cocktail, you’ll find new options spread across the theme parks, water parks, resorts, and Disney Springs.

Because the full lineup covers so much ground, we’ve grouped everything below by category so you can find what you want and exactly where to get it.

Pancakes and Waffles

We didn’t know it was possible, but breakfast just got way more fun at Walt Disney World. Each new breakfast flavor comes in both a Mickey-shaped waffle and a pancake version, served with bacon and sausage, at the same resort location.

When Do These New Treats and Drinks Arrive?

Disney describes the lineup as a fall rollout, so most items should be available now or very soon. Two locations, Happy Landings at Typhoon Lagoon and an outdoor vending spot at Disney Springs, aren’t opening the new items until 2027.

Do I Need a Reservation to Try These?

Most of these treats and drinks come from quick-service counters and snack carts, so you can walk right up. A few, though, live at table-service restaurants and lounges that do take reservations, including Cinderella’s Royal Table, Be Our Guest Restaurant, Sci-Fi Dine-In Theater, Whispering Canyon Cafe, and The Hollywood Brown Derby Lounge. If any of those are on your list, set up MouseDining dining alerts so you don’t miss a same-day cancellation or a new booking window.

Are Any of These for Kids?

Yes. The waffles, pancakes, churros, and every drink listed as non-alcoholic are fine for guests of all ages. The cocktails and spiked slush, shake, and beverage versions are limited to guests 21 and older.

Menus and locations are always subject to change, so double-check current offerings in the My Disney Experience app before you head out. We’ll keep an eye on this lineup and update you as more of these treats make their way to the parks.

The Diamond Horseshoe Pop-Up Opens October 4: Full Menu

Foodie Guide By September 4, 2026 Tags: , , No Comments

Round up your crew, because a new limited-time pop-up is heading to The Diamond Horseshoe in Liberty Square at Magic Kingdom Park, and Disney just revealed the full menu ahead of opening day.

The pop-up opens on October 4, and reservations open on September 29. That five-day gap between booking and opening means this is one to watch closely if you want a table on day one.

What Is The Diamond Horseshoe Pop-Up?

The Diamond Horseshoe is trading its usual offerings for a limited-time, frontier-inspired comfort food and craft cocktail menu this fall. Expect shareable small plates alongside a lineup of specialty non-alcoholic drinks, cocktails, wine, and draft beer, all themed around the saloon setting Liberty Square is known for.

The Diamond Horseshoe Pop-Up Menu: Small Plates

  • Charcuterie: cured beef, candied bacon, smoked pork, green chile cheese, smoked cheddar, and pickles
  • Glazed Sticky Ribs with cowboy beans and jalapeño crisps

Wine and Draft Beer

The wine list stays simple with one option in each category: Nino Franco Rustico Prosecco for sparkling, Fess Parker Riesling for white, and MacMurray Estate Pinot Noir for red. On draft, look for Samuel Adams Boston Lager, Yuengling Traditional Lager, and Cigar City Jai Alai IPA. As always, check the Disney app for current pricing before you order.

How to Get a Reservation

Reservations for The Diamond Horseshoe pop-up open on September 29 for the October 4 debut, and a new, limited-time concept like this one tends to book up fast once the window opens. If you don’t get a reservation that morning, set a MouseDining dining alert so you get notified the moment a table becomes available.

Disney has also confirmed one scheduling detail worth planning around: the pop-up will not be available during Mickey’s Not-So-Scary Halloween Party, but it will return during Mickey’s Very Merry Christmas Party. If you are mapping out party nights alongside regular park days, our Disney World holidays 2026 guide has the full rundown of confirmed dates for both events.

If your trip lands around the holidays, The Diamond Horseshoe is not the only Liberty Square draw worth booking early. Liberty Tree Tavern, just steps away, still serves its Thanksgiving feast. Add both to your MouseDining dining alerts so neither one slips through the cracks.

Frequently Asked Questions About The Diamond Horseshoe Pop-Up

When does The Diamond Horseshoe pop-up open?

The pop-up opens on October 4 at The Diamond Horseshoe in Liberty Square at Magic Kingdom Park.

When can I book a reservation?

Reservations open on September 29, five days ahead of the October 4 opening.

Will The Diamond Horseshoe pop-up be open during Mickey’s Not-So-Scary Halloween Party?

Will it be open during Mickey’s Very Merry Christmas Party?

Hurly-Burly Menu at Disney’s BoardWalk Opening October 1

Foodie Guide By September 4, 2026 Tags: , No Comments

Disney’s BoardWalk is about to get a lot livelier. Hurly-Burly, the seaside theater lounge first announced back in June, opens on October 1, and Disney just shared a full first look at the menu ahead of opening day.

We covered the original announcement in our Disney BoardWalk changes guide, back when Disney confirmed Hurly-Burly but had not released a firm date. Now that the date is locked in, here is everything on the menu, plus what to expect when you walk through the door.

What Is Hurly-Burly?

Hurly-Burly takes over a theater space at Disney’s BoardWalk, themed as though it once hosted the district’s most celebrated vaudeville performers. The new concept leans into that storyline with a turn-of-the-century, nautical theme that runs through the food, drinks, and entertainment.

During the afternoon, expect family-friendly activities such as trivia and games. Then, starting at 9 p.m., the space shifts into a 21-and-older evening scene with live music. Because the vibe changes throughout the day, it is worth checking the Disney app for the current schedule before you head over.

Hurly-Burly Menu: Small Bites

The food menu sticks to shareable, boardwalk-style plates. Here is the full lineup:

  • Meatballs in Tomato Gravy: veal, pork, and beef meatballs with tomato gravy, stracciatella cheese, Pecorino Romano, and toasted focaccia (a plant-based option is available upon request)
  • Antipasto: sliced meats, burrata, Pecorino Romano, and marinated vegetables

  • Mini Pretzels with Bacon-Cheese Fondue
  • Tomato Pie: focaccia, tomato sauce, oregano, and Pecorino Romano (a plant-based option is available upon request)
  • Oven-Roasted Shrimp with garlic, herbs, and sweet pepper-onion relish

  • Roast Beef Sliders: shaved roast beef and horseradish-mustard sour cream on slider rolls
  • Theater Concessions: a trio of meatballs, a sugar cookie, and buttered popcorn
  • Mini Apple Cider Doughnuts with miso-caramel sauce

Hurly-Burly Menu: Non-Alcoholic Specialty Beverages

  • Overture in Orange: a frozen treat made with Minute Maid Orange Juice, topped with sweet cream
  • Caramel Corn Cold Brew: Joffrey’s Cold Brew Coffee topped with caramel sweet cream and caramel popcorn, also available at the walk-up window
  • Cherry Marquee: Minute Maid Premium Lemonade blended with Amarena cherries and garnished with a gourmet cherry, also available at the walk-up window

Hurly-Burly Menu: Cocktails

For guests 21 and older, the cocktail list is where Hurly-Burly really leans into its throwback theme:

  • Mertini: Plymouth Navy Strength Gin, Dolin Dry Vermouth de Chambéry, and Hella Cocktail Co. orange bitters
  • Overproof Amaretto Sour: Lazzaroni Amaretto Liqueur, Old Forester 1920 Prohibition Style Bourbon, and lemon juice
  • Caramel Corn Old Fashioned: Woodford Reserve Kentucky Straight Bourbon, caramel corn, and The Bitter Truth Decanter Bitters, also available at the walk-up window
  • Cherry-Vodka Limeade: Tito’s Handmade Vodka, Amarena cherry, and cold-pressed lime juice, also available at the walk-up window
  • The Atlantic Review: Hangar One Mandarin Blossom Vodka, Cointreau Liqueur, Minute Maid Orange Juice, and Sprite, also available at the walk-up window
  • Bubble Brava!: Chinola Passion Fruit Liqueur, Italian amaro, lemon juice, and Viarae Prosecco, also available at the walk-up window
  • La Taquilla Picante: Ghost Blanco Tequila, lime juice, orgeat, rose water, and a spiced nutmeg rim, also available at the walk-up window
  • Road to Fame: Michter’s Single Barrel Rye Whiskey, Laird’s Straight Applejack Brandy, and lemon juice
  • Off-Book Bramble: Fords Gin, Combier Crème de Mûre Liqueur, lemon juice, and blackberry, also available at the walk-up window
  • Quality EntertainMint: Diplomático Reserva Exclusiva Rum, demerara, lime juice, mint, and Angostura bitters, topped with Viarae Prosecco

If you would rather sip while you stroll, several of these cocktails, along with the Caramel Corn Cold Brew and Cherry Marquee, are also poured at the Hurly-Burly walk-up window.

Wine, Beer, and Hard Seltzer

Beyond the specialty drink menu, Hurly-Burly also stocks a rotating wine list, plus beer, hard cider, and hard seltzer options that lean into the BoardWalk’s East Coast setting. The wine selection covers sparkling, rosé, white, and red pours, while the beer list mixes local-feeling favorites like Dogfish Head 60 Minute IPA and Brooklyn Lager with classic domestic options and a non-alcoholic beer for guests who want to skip the alcohol without skipping the tap. For the current lineup and pricing, check the Disney app once you arrive, since draft and bottle selections can shift.

Hours, Reservations, and Getting In

Hurly-Burly does not take reservations. It runs on a walk-up basis only, so there is no need to book ahead through the Disney app or My Disney Experience for this particular spot.

That said, if Hurly-Burly is part of a bigger BoardWalk day that includes a table-service meal elsewhere in the district, that is exactly the kind of reservation worth locking down early. Set a MouseDining dining alert so you know the moment a hard-to-get BoardWalk table opens up, and let Hurly-Burly be the easy, no-reservation stop that rounds out the night.

Frequently Asked Questions About Hurly-Burly

Do I need a reservation for Hurly-Burly?

No. Hurly-Burly is walk-up only, and Disney has confirmed reservations are not required or available for this location.

What are the hours at Hurly-Burly?

Hurly-Burly offers family-friendly activities like trivia and games during the afternoon. Starting at 9 p.m., the venue shifts to a 21-and-older evening scene with live music. Check the Disney app for the most current hours before you visit.

Is Hurly-Burly open to guests of all ages?

During the day, yes. In the evening, once live music begins at 9 p.m., Hurly-Burly is limited to guests 21 and older.

Where is Hurly-Burly located?

Hurly-Burly sits inside a historic theater space at Disney’s BoardWalk, the resort district along Crescent Lake next to EPCOT.

When does Hurly-Burly open?

Hurly-Burly opens on October 1.

Stay Updated with MouseDining

Hurly-Burly opens at Disney’s BoardWalk on October 1, which is coming right up. Since it runs walk-up only, you can add it to your plans without worrying about a booking window. For everything else on your BoardWalk itinerary, from a sit-down dinner to a special-occasion table, set your MouseDining dining alerts. We will keep updating this guide as Disney shares more about the BoardWalk’s newest additions.

2026 EPCOT Food & Wine Festival – Everything You Need to Know

General, News, Special Events By August 24, 2026 Tags: , , No Comments

Updated August 19, 2026: If you have been dreaming of sipping your way around World Showcase while live music drifts through the warm Florida evening air, the wait is almost over. The 2026 EPCOT International Food & Wine Festival opens in just over a week, and we have the latest details to help you plan your visit.

First things first, the EPCOT Food & Wine Festival runs August 27-November 21, 2026. That is 87 days of global flavors, live entertainment, and unforgettable experiences. The late-summer-to-pre-holiday run is the event’s signature format and is nearly identical to last year’s festival window. And best yet, the entire festival is included with your standard EPCOT park ticket.

What Is the EPCOT Food & Wine Festival?

First celebrated in 1996 as a modest 30-day event, the EPCOT International Food & Wine Festival has grown into one of Walt Disney World’s most beloved annual traditions. Today it transforms EPCOT into a globe-trotting culinary adventure, with Global Marketplace booths scattered throughout the park offering dishes and drinks inspired by cultures across six continents.

Whether this is your first visit or your 100th, there is always something new to discover alongside the fan-favorite dishes guests plan entire trips around. The magic here is not rides or characters. It is the cumulative experience of great food, great music, and World Showcase at its absolute best.

Mark Your Calendars

The festival runs August 27-November 21, 2026, giving you an 87-day window to plan around. The best part? No separate ticket is required. Access to every booth, every concert, all of it is covered by your standard EPCOT park admission.

Global Marketplaces: A World of Flavor Awaits

One of the best parts of the EPCOT International Food & Wine Festival is the chance to sample dishes and drinks inspired by cuisines from around the world. For 2026, Disney has released the complete Foodie Guide, giving us a look at the food and beverage offerings coming to EPCOT throughout the festival.

The 2026 festival also celebrates its 30th anniversary, with 30 dishes returning from previous years. We’ve noted those selections below, along with the new dishes and drinks joining the festival lineup this year.

You’ll notice that some booths are not open during the entire festival with some opening in September and October. If there’s a specific booth you’re coming for, make sure you check the date before planning your visit.

Live Music: The Eat to the Beat Concert Series Returns

The beloved Eat to the Beat Concert Series returns for 2026 at the America Gardens Theatre inside the American Adventure Pavilion, running nightly from August 27-November 16, 2026. That means the concert series wraps five days before the festival itself closes on November 21, so keep that in mind if you are planning a late-festival trip around a show. Shows typically run multiple times nightly, around 5:30 PM, 6:45 PM, and 8:00 PM.

Disney has released the full 2026 lineup, including three artists making their EPCOT debut this year: Lauren Alaina, Fitz and the Tantrums, and Grace Potter. They join returning favorites like Boyz II Men, Yellowcard, and The Beach Boys. For the complete artist list, showtimes, and Dining Package strategy, check out our full guide: Your Complete Guide to the 2026 Eat to the Beat Concert Series.

MouseDining Tip

Dining Packages for the Eat to the Beat Concert Series sell out quickly, but spots do open up. Set a MouseDining alert for participating restaurants so you are notified the moment a reservation becomes available.

For a complete breakdown of the concert series, showtimes, participating restaurants, and Dining Package strategy, see our full guide: Your Complete Guide to the 2026 Eat to the Beat Concert Series.

Family Fun: Remy’s Hide & Squeak and Emile’s Fromage Montage

The festival is not just for grown-up foodies, and Disney makes sure of it. Two beloved family activities are confirmed returning for 2026.

Remy’s Ratatouille Hide & Squeak

The festival’s signature scavenger hunt invites guests to track down hidden Remy figurines placed throughout World Showcase. Purchase a themed map and stickers, then track your progress as you find him in each pavilion. Spot Remy in every location and a special keepsake awaits. It is one of the best ways to keep younger guests engaged while the rest of the group explores the booths at a comfortable pace.

Emile’s Fromage Montage

For the cheese lovers in the group, this activity challenges guests to purchase five select cheese dishes from participating Global Marketplaces, collect a stamp in their Festival Passport for each one, and redeem the completed passport for a specialty prize. It adds a fun, structured element to booth-hopping and is highly recommended for anyone who takes their fromage seriously.

The participating dishes for 2026 are:

  • Belgian Waffle
  • Pão de Queijo
  • Fried Pickle Spears
  • Three-Cheese Macaroni and Cheese
  • Apple-Cinnamon and Caramel Mini Churros Sundae

New This Year: CommuniCore Hall’s Cheers to Cheese

Starting September 18, 2026, CommuniCore Hall trades its summer theme for an all-new interactive exhibit celebrating one of the world’s most beloved foods: cheese. You’ll find fun facts and the history of cheese around every corner of the space.

Keep in mind the exhibit opens three weeks into the festival, so if you’re visiting between August 27 and September 17, you’ll miss it. CommuniCore Hall is built to flex with whatever season EPCOT is celebrating, so expect it to look different again once Food & Wine wraps.

Disney PhotoPass Magic Shots

Disney PhotoPass photographers throughout EPCOT will be offering new and returning Magic Shots for the festival. New for 2026 is a Waiter Mickey Mouse Magic Shot appearing in select World Showcase pavilions, including Mexico, China, Italy, Japan, and France.

Returning favorites include a Giant Empanada, the Leaning Tower of Cheeza with Max Goof, a Swedish Chef Magic Shot, and Chef Figment. If you want to keep these photos long after your trip, consider adding a Memory Maker package to your vacation.

Food & Wine Merchandise

This year’s collection leans into playful color, with pieces like a festival tee, chef-themed ears with a moveable rolling pin and whisk, a cozy sweatshirt, and a baseball cap, plus fun extras like a wine glass and a churro-shaped tote bag. Check the Disney Parks shopping app or your nearest EPCOT shop for current availability and pricing.

Tips for Planning Your 2026 Food & Wine Visit

With 87 days on the calendar, you have real flexibility. But a little planning goes a long way. Here is what we tell every guest who asks how to get the most out of it:

  • Book dining reservations early. EPCOT’s table-service restaurants fill up fast during the festival, especially if you are eyeing an Eat to the Beat Dining Package. Disney’s reservation window opens 60 days before your arrival date. Be ready.
  • Visit on weekdays when possible. Crowds run lighter Tuesday through Thursday, and local entertainment takes the America Gardens Theatre stage on those nights for a relaxed, low-key evening.
  • Pace yourself across multiple visits. With 30+ booths, trying to cover everything in one day is not realistic and takes the enjoyment out of the experience. Spread your visits and actually savor each stop.
  • Download My Disney Experience before you arrive. Showtimes, booth locations, dining reservations, and park hours are all in one place. It is essential for navigating the festival.
  • Arrive early for popular concerts. Without a Dining Package, general seating is first-come, first-served. For headliners that draw large crowds, plan to be in place 30 to 40 minutes before showtime.

Stay Tuned — More Details Are Coming

Disney is still finalizing the complete Global Marketplace booth and menu list and the official Foodie Guide. The Eat to the Beat lineup and Dining Package details are both out now, so check our concert guide for the latest. We’ll keep updating this page as more announcements roll in, so bookmark it and check back often.

The 2026 EPCOT International Food & Wine Festival opens on August 27, 2026. Start planning your trip now, and when you are ready to lock in dining, visit MouseDining.com to set alerts and secure the reservations that make your festival truly exceptional.

D23 2026 Disney Announcements: Every U.S. Park Update

News By August 17, 2026 Tags: , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , 1 Comment

D23: The Ultimate Disney Fan Event took place in Anaheim on August 14-16, 2026, and Saturday night’s Disney Experiences Showcase brought a ton of news for both coasts. We learned new details and got a few surprises too.

We’ve put together every Disneyland and Walt Disney World theme park announcement in one place, so you don’t have to scroll for hours. You’ll find all the official details and dates that have been released, and we’re calling out which parts are new versus which projects you’ve already heard about.

Walt Disney World

All four Walt Disney World parks got news at D23 this year. Magic Kingdom, EPCOT, Animal Kingdom, and Hollywood Studios each had at least one update, ranging from brand new project reveals to fresh details on lands that have been under construction for a while.

Magic Kingdom

  • Villains Land has been in the works since 2024, but D23 is where it actually became real. Disney confirmed the official name, ah-hem… Villains Land and gave us our first look at the two headline attractions. First is a roller coaster starring Maleficent, and the second is a dark ride hosted by the Evil Queen’s Magic Mirror. The Evil Queen, Cruella de Vil, and Dr. Facilier each get their own space inside the land. Disney has not announced an opening date. Based on the permits filed so far, most fan trackers are guessing somewhere between late 2027 and 2030.

  • Piston Peak National Park, the Cars-themed land replacing Rivers of America, is also a known project. What’s new: both rides finally have names. Cars Ridge Run Rally is the thrill ride, sending guests up a mountain and through a geyser field. Miss Fritter’s Daredevil Spin-Along is the family-friendly one, a demolition derby starring a school-bus-sized Miss Fritter animatronic. Disney has not set an opening date.

  • Carousel of Progress was already closed for its overhaul before D23, and we already knew it was getting a new 1980s scene with a target reopening of late spring 2027. What we DIDN’T know: Jamie Lee Curtis and Bryan Cranston are voicing Mother and Father. Can you imagine a more iconic duo? We can’t.

EPCOT

  • Spaceship Earth is all new news. Disney announced its first major story change in nearly 20 years, shifting the ride’s focus from communication to human connection while keeping the same trip through history. Disney has not shared closure or reopening dates yet.

  • Journey Into Imagination with Figment is also a fresh announcement. Disney confirmed the ride is being reimagined and that Dreamfinder is officially coming back. That’s all Disney shared. There is no concept art, no timeline, and no word yet on what happens to the current ride in the meantime.

Disney’s Animal Kingdom

  • Tropical Americas, the land replacing the old DinoLand, U.S.A., has been in the pipeline since 2024. D23 filled in the blanks: all three attractions now have official names and story details. Indiana Jones and the Myth of the Jade Serpent will feature an Audio-Animatronics figure modeled after Harrison Ford himself. Antonio’s Fiesta de Encanto, a ride through dark attraction, and El Carrusel de los Animalitos, a family-friendly carousel, round out the land. It’s still on track for 2027.

Indiana Jones Artist Rendering Photo Credit: Disney Parks Blog

  • Expedition Everest’s Yeti is a surprise addition to the list. The massive animatronic has run in “B-mode,” using a strobe effect instead of full motion, for close to 20 years. Disney confirmed at D23 that it’s finally being repaired, though no timeline was given.

Disney’s Hollywood Studios

  • Monstropolis, the Monsters, Inc. land taking over the old Muppets Courtyard, is another project we already knew about. New at D23: parts of the land will start opening in 2027, ahead of its headliner. The suspended door-chase coaster will not be ready when the rest of the land opens, and Disney hasn’t set a date for it. What is coming in 2027: Harryhausen’s restaurant, the Glob Theater (with a brand new Disney Legend Randy Newman song called “Welcome to Monstropolis”), and the Scareporium gift shop.

Disneyland Resort

Disneyland Resort’s D23 news leaned more on updates than reveals. Most of what came out was new detail layered onto projects Disney had already confirmed, plus the one surprise fans had been hoping for: official word that Tomorrowland is finally getting reimagined.

Disneyland Park

  • Tomorrowland is getting a full reimagining. This one’s new. Disney promised more attractions and more open space, but this was more of an “it’s happening” reveal than a details reveal. Disney has not announced a timeline, but we’re hoping Tomorrowland is more like tomorrow and less like years away…

Disneyland Tomorrowland Artist Rendering Photo Credit: Disney Parks Blog

  • Remember… Dreams Come True, the nighttime fireworks spectacular, is coming back with refreshed projections starting in February 2027. That date is new.
  • Magic Happens, the daytime parade, is returning to Disneyland Park as part of a new “Calling All Dreamers” celebration. Disney has not attached a specific return date. We’re thrilled to see this fan favorite parade return.

Disney California Adventure Park

  • Coco, the boat ride, has been a known project since it was first announced. What’s new is the story detail: it’s set a year after the movie, the entrance features Miguel’s great-great-grandfather Hector Rivera, and boats carry guests through the Land of the Dead. There’s no height requirement. Disney has not announced an opening date for this ride either.

Coco Artist Rendering Photo Credit: Disney Parks Blog

  • The Avatar experience is still on the books. Disney has not canceled it, despite rumors going into D23, and showed a new model of the boat ride on the show floor, confirming the project for Hollywood Land is still moving forward. What’s new is the timeline. Disney is shifting the project’s priority to focus resources on the new Tomorrowland project at Disneyland Park first, which pushes Avatar’s own opening further out. That delay has an upside for guests: Disney has pushed back the closure of Monsters, Inc. Mike & Sulley to the Rescue!, the ride Avatar will eventually replace, again. Disney has not announced a new closure date.
  • Avengers Campus doubling in size isn’t new, but the timeline is. Two new attractions, Avengers: Infinity Defense and Stark Flight Lab, are now confirmed for 2028. Robert Downey Jr., Chris Hemsworth, Jeremy Renner, Anthony Mackie, and Brie Larson are all reprising their roles.

Avengers Campus Artist Rendering Photo Credit: Disney Parks Blog

  • World of Color isn’t getting a new name. Disney is retiring the current “World of Color – One” and bringing back the original “World of Color” title with an updated take, featuring new segments from films like The Little Mermaid, The Lion King, Finding Nemo, and Toy Story. It returns in February 2027.

That’s every theme park update Disney confirmed at D23 2026 for Disneyland and Walt Disney World. A lot of these are still years out, so treat the “no date yet” items as things to keep an eye on rather than trip-planning details for now. Once dining reservations open for new spots like Harryhausen’s, set a free dining alert at MouseDining.com so you don’t miss your shot at a table.

Disney Equipment Rentals Made Easier: Why We Recommend Cloud of Goods for Your Next Disney Vacation

General By August 17, 2026 Tags: , , , , , , , No Comments

Disney Equipment Rentals Made Easier: Why We Recommend Cloud of Goods for Your Next Disney Vacation

From mobility scooters and wheelchairs to strollers, cribs, car seats and cruise-day gear, the right rental can make a Disney trip easier from arrival to the final park day.

Sponsored content disclosure: Cloud of Goods partnered with us to create this article. Cloud of Goods operates as an independent third-party rental marketplace, and The Walt Disney Company does not affiliate with or endorse it.

The easiest vacation problems to solve are the ones you handle before you arrive. We think about dining reservations before the trip. We plan park days before the trip. So if someone in your family will need a mobility scooter, wheelchair, stroller, crib, car seat or other travel gear, it makes sense to plan that before the trip, too.

That is why Cloud of Goods is worth knowing about for Disney travelers. The service lets guests reserve equipment ahead of time and coordinate local delivery for Walt Disney World, Disneyland Resort, nearby hotels and vacation rentals, and Disney Cruise Line trips. That way, the gear can fit the vacation instead of the vacation having to fit the rental counter.

Why renting before you arrive can be easier than renting inside the park

Disney offers its own mobility devices and strollers, and for some guests those rentals are exactly what they need. However, in-park equipment comes with location and availability rules that matter on a multi-day trip.

At Walt Disney World, Disney currently lists ECV rentals at $65 per day. Disney does not accept reservations for these, and it limits quantities. Plus, you cannot remove the ECV from the destination where you rented it. If you park hop, you can present your receipt at the next location and get another ECV only if one is available.

Heavy Duty Mobility Scooter Cloud of Goods Photo Credit: Cloud of Goods

Manual wheelchairs at Walt Disney World currently run $12 per day, or $10 per day for a multi-day theme-park rental. These are also first-come, first-served, and you must return them when you leave the rental location. Disney strollers cost $15 per day for a single and $31 per day for a double, with multi-day rates of $13 and $27. You cannot remove those strollers from the parks, either.

Disneyland works a little differently. Disneyland currently lists ECVs at $60 per day plus tax and manual wheelchairs at $15 per day. Disney does not accept reservations for these either, and they run limited, first-come, first-served. You can use rented ECVs and wheelchairs in Disneyland Park, Disney California Adventure and the Downtown Disney District. Disneyland strollers currently cost $18 per day for a single and $36 per day for a double, and you can use them in both theme parks.

The Cloud of Goods advantage is not simply price. It comes down to reservation certainty and continuity. You reserve the equipment for your trip, get comfortable with the same scooter, wheelchair or stroller, and can use it everywhere your itinerary takes it: your resort, multiple parks, Disney Springs or Downtown Disney, nearby attractions, and other stops along the way.

For mobility scooters in particular, the price difference can also be meaningful. A current Cloud of Goods Orlando example shows the Heavy Duty and Lightweight Mobility Scooters running about $37.67 per day on a three-day rental, compared with Disney World’s current $65 daily ECV rate. On the other hand, Disney’s manual wheelchair can cost less than a third-party wheelchair. We like that distinction because the real decision isn’t simply “Which daily rate is lower?” It’s “Which option works best for the way we are actually traveling?”

The part we especially like: a white-glove Disney handoff

For Disney reservations, Cloud of Goods builds its delivery experience around a local fulfillment concierge. After you place the booking, the concierge reaches out to plan the handoff around your itinerary.

Cloud of Goods frequently delivers directly to guests visiting Disney parks. For a park delivery, the concierge can meet you in person at the designated pickup and drop-off location outside the park entrance. The same kind of coordinated handoff works at a Disney resort or hotel, another local accommodation, or a cruise terminal, and you’ll plan the exact meeting point and timing together.

For a mobility scooter or other equipment that may be unfamiliar, the handoff means more than simply passing over the item. Your concierge can walk you through how the equipment operates so you feel comfortable before you begin the day.

There is also a very Disney-vacation-friendly bonus. The people delivering the equipment are local, and they know the destination. So go ahead and ask them practical questions. Where is a good breakfast near the hotel? What is worth doing on a non-park day? Where can the family grab dinner nearby? Which local experiences are easy to add without overcomplicating the itinerary? You get the equipment you rented, and you also meet someone who knows the area.

What we would rent for a Disney vacation

Cloud of Goods has a broad rental catalog, but a handful of products make especially good sense for Disney trips. The price examples below show representative Orlando rates on Cloud of Goods as of August 17, 2026. Keep in mind that pricing varies by destination, dates, duration, availability and delivery location, and Anaheim and cruise-port pricing may differ.

1. Heavy Duty Mobility Scooter: our pick for long park days

Heavy Duty Mobility Scooter is the option we would look at first for a guest planning full park days. Cloud of Goods lists the Orlando model with roughly a 10-12 mile cruising range and a higher weight capacity than the basic lightweight model, which makes it a strong choice when endurance and comfort matter more than minimum size.

Representative Orlando price: about $37.67/day on a 3-day rental. Best for: long days, guests who want more range, and travelers who would rather have one scooter for the trip than start over at a rental counter each morning.

2. Lightweight Mobility Scooter: our pick for park hoppers

Lightweight Mobility Scooter is easier to break down and transport in a vehicle, so it can be a better fit for families moving between hotels, parks and other attractions. The tradeoff: it has a shorter range, so charging during breaks can matter on very long park days.

Representative Orlando price: about $37.67/day on a 3-day rental. Best for: park hopping, resort hopping, rental-car users and travelers prioritizing portability.

3. Ultra Light Standard Wheelchair: a portable manual option

Ultra Light Standard Wheelchair is a good manual option when you do not need an ECV. Cloud of Goods lists the chair at about 25 pounds with a folding frame, so it’s easier to transport than a heavier standard chair.

Representative Orlando price: about $26.67/day on a 3-day rental. Best for: guests who need periodic mobility support and families who want a lightweight chair available outside a single park rental location.

4. Double Stroller: useful even when your children are not twins

Double Stroller can be a smart choice for siblings of different ages, or simply for a family that knows a long Disney day can turn an independent walker into a very tired passenger by evening. The extra room also keeps the day feeling less cramped as jackets, water bottles and park-day essentials pile up. Use the stroller’s approved storage areas, and always follow the manufacturer’s passenger and weight limits.

Representative Orlando price: about $26.67/day on a 3-day rental. Best for: two children, siblings with different stamina levels, and families who want more flexibility during a long park day.

5. Jogging Stroller: our pick for maneuverability

Jogging Stroller is worth considering when easy steering and a smoother push are priorities. Cloud of Goods describes the Orlando version as lightweight and foldable, with adjustable suspension, and it can accommodate Disney stroller specifications.

Representative Orlando price: about $28.33/day on a 3-day rental. Best for: parents who value maneuverability in crowds and a smoother ride over a full day.

6. Cribs, high chairs, car seats and the gear that makes the hotel room easier

The parks are only part of a family vacation. Cloud of Goods also offers baby gear in Orlando, including a Full-size Crib with Linens, High Chair, and a range of car seats including a Rear-facing Infant Car Seat. So for families flying to Disney, renting these items locally can mean fewer bulky pieces to check at the airport and a more functional hotel or vacation-rental setup once you arrive.

Representative Orlando crib price: about $25/day on a 4-day rental. Cloud of Goods currently advertises the High Chair from $14/day and the Rear-facing Infant Car Seat from $19/day on 5-day examples. For shorter stays, the public product pages direct you to checkout for the exact date-specific rate. For car seats, parents or guardians should install the seat themselves according to the manufacturer and vehicle instructions.

*Pricing note: These are representative base rental examples, not guaranteed quotes. Pricing depends on duration, destination, dates, availability and delivery location, and it does not include the Optional Damage Waiver or applicable sales taxes; checkout calculates those separately. You’ll also see delivery and/or platform fees, where applicable, during booking.

Why the same rental matters beyond the park gates

The biggest practical difference shows up when your Disney day does not begin and end at one gate. Maybe you start at Magic Kingdom, return to the resort for a break, head to Disney Springs for dinner, and visit another park the next morning. Or maybe your Disneyland trip includes both theme parks, Downtown Disney, your Anaheim hotel and other Southern California stops.

With Cloud of Goods, you rent for the itinerary rather than just for the hours you spend inside one Disney rental location. That continuity can be especially valuable for someone who has learned the controls of a particular scooter, a child who feels comfortable in a specific stroller, or a family that simply does not want to repeat the rental process every time the destination changes.

Disney Cruise travelers: arrange mobility equipment before embarkation day

Disney Cruise Line tells guests who require a wheelchair or other mobility aid that they need to arrange the rental, delivery and pickup of the device themselves. That makes advance planning especially important, so Cloud of Goods built a dedicated Disney Cruise Line rental page covering mobility scooters, wheelchairs, strollers and other gear for major embarkation ports and nearby hotels.

For a Disney cruise delivery, the local fulfillment concierge can coordinate an in-person meeting at the cruise terminal or another agreed-upon location based on the itinerary and port procedures. Cloud of Goods serves Port Canaveral, one of the major Disney cruise departure points. Either way, always check Disney Cruise Line’s current mobility-device size, storage and special-services requirements before sailing.

A local resource for the rest of your trip

Once you handle the equipment, the fun part is deciding what else to do with the time you have. Cloud of Goods also publishes self-guided local experience ideas that can be useful for building a lighter non-park day or finding something nearby after your Disney plans.

So, should you rent from Disney or Cloud of Goods?

If you need a manual wheelchair for a few hours inside one park, Disney’s own rental may be the simplest and least expensive answer. We would not pretend otherwise.

But if your trip runs multi-day, you want to reserve equipment before arrival, you need a scooter or stroller at your resort as well as the parks, you plan to visit multiple destinations, or you are combining Disney with a cruise or other local attractions, Cloud of Goods becomes a very compelling option.

Key reasons to consider Cloud of Goods:

Reserve before the trip. You are not relying solely on first-come, first-served availability after reaching the park.

Keep the same equipment. Use one familiar scooter, wheelchair or stroller for as much of the trip as the rules allow.

Coordinate delivery around your itinerary. A local fulfillment concierge contacts you after booking to plan the handoff.

Meet a real person. For Disney deliveries, Cloud of Goods arranges a white-glove, in-person handoff at the appropriate meeting point. This includes designated passenger pickup/drop-off locations outside parks, resorts or hotels, and cruise terminals.

Get help learning the equipment. Your concierge can show you the basics before you head into the park.

Tap into local knowledge. The person delivering your gear is also a local who can offer practical destination insight.

Rent more than mobility equipment. Strollers, cribs, high chairs, car seats and other baby gear can make the entire stay easier, not just the park day.

Disney vacations should be about the experiences you came for, not wondering whether the ECV you need will still be available when you reach the gate, or dragging a crib and double stroller through baggage claim.

Our advice: plan the gear the same way you plan the dining reservations. Before the trip.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is Cloud of Goods affiliated with Disney?

No. Cloud of Goods operates as an independent third-party rental marketplace, and Disney does not affiliate with or endorse it. In fact, Disney itself notes that guests may bring their own mobility devices and may rent from third-party companies.

Can Cloud of Goods deliver to Disney theme parks?

Yes. Cloud of Goods frequently coordinates deliveries for Disney park visitors. After booking, a local fulfillment concierge contacts you to arrange the handoff. For park deliveries, the concierge can meet you in person at a designated pickup and drop-off area outside the park entrance, and you’ll coordinate the exact location and time together.

Can Cloud of Goods deliver to a Disney resort or hotel?

Yes. Disney resort and hotel deliveries are a common use case. The local concierge will contact you after booking and coordinate the appropriate in-person handoff based on the property, your arrival plans and current access procedures.

Can Cloud of Goods meet Disney Cruise passengers at the terminal?

Yes. Cloud of Goods serves Disney Cruise Line passengers at major embarkation ports and can coordinate terminal or nearby-hotel handoffs. Since exact arrangements depend on the port and itinerary, include your sailing and preferred timing when you reserve.

Is Cloud of Goods always cheaper than renting at Disney?

No. For example, Disney World’s manual wheelchair can cost less. Still, the strongest Cloud of Goods advantages are advance reservation, multi-day continuity, the ability to have equipment with you beyond one park rental location, and the local white-glove delivery experience. Mobility scooters can also compare favorably on multi-day pricing.

What should I put in my reservation notes?

Include your hotel or resort name, reservation name, preferred handoff timing, park or cruise plans that affect the meeting location, and any special equipment requirements. That way, the local concierge has what they need to coordinate a smooth delivery.

Swan & Dolphin Food & Wine Classic 2026 Guide

Foodie Guide By August 16, 2026 Tags: , , , No Comments

Swan & Dolphin Food & Wine Classic 2026: Your Complete Guide

The Swan & Dolphin Food & Wine Classic is back November 20-21, 2026, from 5-9pm both nights. This one’s for the crowd that wants an intimate, chef-focused evening with room to actually savor the food.

November 21 is also the last day of the EPCOT International Food & Wine Festival, and the Swan and Dolphin hotels are a short walk or boat ride from World Showcase. That means you can hit EPCOT during the day and walk over to the causeway for dinner. This pairing works out nicely if you’re already in town for both events.

What Is the Swan & Dolphin Food & Wine Classic?

It’s an annual event hosted by the Walt Disney World Swan and Dolphin Resorts, which are located on Disney property, but are not owned or operated by Disney Parks. Each fall, the causeway connecting the two hotels turns into an outdoor food festival for two nights, with dishes from the resort’s 23 restaurants and lounges. The event started in 2010, and 2026 marks its 17th year.

The event also partners with a charity each year. Wounded Warrior Project was the beneficiary in both 2024 and 2025, though the Swan and Dolphin hasn’t announced the 2026 charity partner yet. We’ll update this article once that’s confirmed.

The vibe is different from EPCOT’s festival. You get one causeway, a lineup of the resort’s own chefs, and four relaxed hours to make your way through it at your own pace.

2026 Event Details

When: Friday, November 20 & Saturday, November 21, 2026, 5-9pm both nights

Where: The Causeway at Walt Disney World Swan and Dolphin Resort

Ticket Price: $234.90 per person for one night, or save 10% with a two-night bundle

What’s Included: Your ticket covers unlimited tastings for the full four hours, and that includes the food and the drinks. Wine, beer, and spirits are part of the ticket price, not an add-on. Over 170 beverage selections are on the menu alongside the food.

Chef-Led Tasting Experiences (New for 2026)

If you want something more structured than working the causeway station by station, the Chef Todd English Experience and Chef Michael Mina Experience are new this year. Both are sit-down, multi-course meals with wine pairings, led by the chefs themselves. You can find details on both experiences here.

Getting Your Event Tickets

This event tends to sell out, so don’t wait too long if you want tickets. You can grab them here. Sign up for the mailing list too if you want to hear about updates as they happen, and lock in the rest of your Walt Disney World dining plans through MouseDining so nothing gets in the way of a great trip.

Frequently Asked Questions

Are drinks included with the Swan & Dolphin Food & Wine Classic ticket?

Yes. Wine, beer, and spirits are part of the same ticket as the food, so there’s nothing extra to pay for once you’re inside. Over 170 beverage selections are included alongside the food.

Do kids need a ticket for the Swan & Dolphin Food & Wine Classic?

Kids under 5 get in free with a paying adult. Kids age 6 and up need their own ticket which is the same price as an adult ticket.

Are Swan & Dolphin Food & Wine Classic tickets refundable?

No, tickets are non-refundable, so make sure your dates are firm before you buy.

Do you have to be a Swan and Dolphin hotel guest to attend?

No. The Swan & Dolphin Food & Wine Classic is open to the public. You don’t have to be staying at the resort to buy a ticket.

Is parking included with your Swan & Dolphin Food & Wine Classic ticket?

No. Parking at the resort runs about $30-40 a night plus tax for self-parking, and that applies whether you’re a hotel guest or just coming for the event.

What happens if it rains during the Swan & Dolphin Food & Wine Classic?

The event runs rain or shine. If the weather gets bad enough, it moves indoors.

Does the Swan & Dolphin Food & Wine Classic accommodate food allergies or dietary restrictions?

Yes. In past years, the menu has labeled each dish for gluten-free, dairy-free, vegetarian, vegan, shellfish, and nut content, and some items are prepared gluten-free upon request. Check the posted menu for this year’s specific labels, and if you have a serious allergy, it’s worth asking staff directly at each station before you order.

How many nights of the Swan & Dolphin Food & Wine Classic should you attend?

One ticket is enough if you’re okay picking your top 10 or 15 dishes and calling it a night. Some items are Friday-only or Saturday-only, so if you want to try everything, you’ll need both nights.

Can you combine the Swan & Dolphin Food & Wine Classic with EPCOT Food & Wine?

Yes, and plenty of people do both in the same day. Spend the afternoon working through Global Marketplace booths at EPCOT, then walk or take the boat over to the Swan and Dolphin by 5. It’s a full, food-filled day for anyone up for it. Wear shoes you can actually stand in for hours.

Halloween Foodie Guide to Disney Springs 2026: Every Treat and Where to Find It

Halloween has officially arrived at Disney Springs. Disney Eats revealed the full 2026 lineup, and it’s one of the biggest seasonal food rollouts we’ve ever seen from the district. Dozens of restaurants, bakeries, bars, and quick-service spots are debuting pumpkin desserts, spooky cocktails, and over-the-top savory bites, and most of it runs through early November.

There is a lot to cover, so we broke it down by location. Grab a coffyn from Six Ravens on your way in and let’s get into it.

What’s New at Disney Springs for Halloween 2026

A few stops are worth building your whole visit around. Jock Lindsey’s Hangar Bar brings back its full Halloween overlay, complete with a Temple of Doom Margarita and Candelabra Eggs. Amorette’s Patisserie rolled out three new éclairs alongside a black velvet Candle Petit Cake. And Everglazed Donuts is serving a vegan “Haunted Mansion” donut topped with an edible clock that we can’t stop looking at. And that’s just the beginning! Here is the full Disney Springs Halloween Foodie Guide:

The Halloween overlay is back, and the menu leans savory. Try the Candelabra Eggs (deviled eggs with crispy fried chicken and aji amarillo custard), the Alien Invader Sliders (Nashville hot chicken on a cheddar-chive biscuit), or the Skull of the Dead Dip (barbacoa beef with cheddar sauce and plantain chips). On the drink side, the glitter-topped Midnight Relic and the blackberry Temple of Doom Margarita lead a lineup of ten-plus specialty cocktails. The non-alcoholic Viper’s Nest is a great pick if you’re skipping the booze.

Pair it with a Burnt Sugar Old-Fashioned or a bourbon Pumpkin Cream Coffee.

Tips for Your Halloween Food Crawl

With this many menus running at once, you won’t hit every stop in one visit. Pick two or three must-try items instead of trying to do it all. The Ganachery’s chocolate collection, Amorette’s new éclairs, and the coffyns at Six Ravens next door are all worth slowing down for rather than rushing through.

Prices haven’t been published for every item, and they can shift once the season gets going. Check the My Disney Experience app for current pricing before you order, and use mobile order at busy spots like Jock Lindsey’s Hangar Bar to skip the line.

Frequently Asked Questions

When does Halloween season start at Disney Springs?

World Princess Week 2026 Treats: Full Disney World Guide

Foodie Guide By August 1, 2026 Tags: , , , , No Comments

World Princess Week 2026: Every Treat and Where to Find It

World Princess Week returns to Walt Disney World from August 16-22, 2026. Disney Eats just revealed this year’s royal lineup, and it is a big one. In total, you can track down a dozen princess-inspired treats across the parks and resort hotels.

Three of them are brand-new for 2026. The rest are returning favorites and year-round staples, all dressed up for the celebration.

These treats are spread all over the property. So a little planning goes a long way. Below, you will find every item and exactly where to grab it.

The 3 New World Princess Week Treats for 2026

First, let’s start with the fresh arrivals. Disney Eats confirmed three new desserts this year. Each one is packed with detail and sure to be as delicious as it is beautiful.

  • Princess of the Bayou at Amorette’s Patisserie in Disney Springs: vanilla chiffon, pistachio-praline crunch, orange pate de fruit, and pistachio mousse. The green-and-yellow dessert nods to Tiana’s bayou transformation. Chocolate leaves and a water lily topper finish it off.

  • Tiana’s Caramel Eclair at Disney’s Port Orleans Resort: honey cremeux, caramel, and spiced pecans in a green eclair shell, topped with a chocolate lotus. Look for it at Riverside Mill Food Court and Sassagoula Floatworks and Food Factory.

  • Lemon Blueberry Entremet at Le Petit Cafe in Disney’s Riviera Resort: blueberry mousse, lemon chiffon cake, lemon curd, and blueberry compote. Golden frosting styled like Rapunzel’s braid tops the glossy purple dessert.

Returning World Princess Week Treats by Location

Next, here are the returning bites and beverages. Many are available at other times of year. Still, Disney groups them under the Princess Week banner. So they are easy to collect on one trip.

Magic Kingdom

  • Aurora Cone at Storybook Treats: strawberry DOLE Whip and blue soft-serve in a blue sugar cone, topped with white chocolate crispy pearls
  • Tiana’s Famous Beignets at Golden Oak Outpost: light, fluffy beignets dusted with powdered sugar and drizzled with honey

EPCOT

  • The Royal Chef’s Dessert Plate at Akershus Royal Banquet Hall in the Norway pavilion: an assortment of Norwegian-inspired desserts served during the Disney Princess dining experience

Akershus is a table-service restaurant, and it books up fast during Princess Week. So you will want a reservation before you go. To catch an opening, set your MouseDining dining alerts, and let us watch the availability for you.

How Much Do the Treats Cost?

Disney has not shared full pricing yet. Prices can also shift closer to the event. For the current cost on any treat, check the Walt Disney World app or My Disney Experience before you order. That way, there are no surprises at the register.

Tips for Your World Princess Week Snack Crawl

The lineup stretches across four parks, Disney Springs, and several resort hotels. So you will not knock it all out in one day. Instead, pick the parks on your itinerary first. Then build a short list of treats you can reach without backtracking.

If desserts are your priority, Disney Springs is an easy stop. You can grab the Princess of the Bayou and the Mermaid Caramel Ganache Pop within a short walk of each other. Plus, no park ticket is required.

For the resort treats, plan a monorail or Skyliner detour. The Polynesian, Grand Floridian, Riviera, and Port Orleans options each pair well with a meal or a break between park days.

Frequently Asked Questions

When is World Princess Week 2026?

World Princess Week runs from August 16-22, 2026, at Walt Disney World. Still, several treats are available for a wider window in August. So you may spot some of them before the week officially begins.

What are the new World Princess Week treats this year?

This year, Disney Eats added three new desserts. The Princess of the Bayou is at Amorette’s Patisserie. Tiana’s Caramel Eclair is at Disney’s Port Orleans Resort. The Lemon Blueberry Entremet is at Le Petit Cafe. Each one draws from a different princess story.

Where can you find World Princess Week treats?

You can find the treats across all four theme parks, in Disney Springs, and at several resort hotels. Each park carries at least one item. The Polynesian, Grand Floridian, Riviera, and Port Orleans resorts round out the list.

Do you need a reservation for Akershus Royal Banquet Hall?

Yes. Akershus is a table-service restaurant, so you will need a dining reservation for The Royal Chef’s Dessert Plate. These tables go quickly during Princess Week. To get one, set your MouseDining dining alerts, and we will notify you the moment a spot opens.

How much do World Princess Week treats cost?

Disney has not published prices for every item, and costs can change. So the best move is simple. Check the Walt Disney World app or My Disney Experience for current pricing before you order.
