The next season of this Marvel series will hit Disney+ on October 6th and we have a feeling lots of fans are eagerly awaiting its arrival. The last season left us with so many questions and some pretty high stakes for our favorite characters, so where will Season 2 take them? Well, now we’ve got some clues!
Picture it: Lunchtime has arrived in Magic Kingdom and you can feel your stomach grumbling. ? It’s time to eat and you’re looking for something quick, delicious, filling, and worth your cash. Where do you go?
Pecos Bill Tall Tale Inn and Cafe
Once upon a time, the answer might have been Pecos Bill Tall Tale Inn and Cafe. Back in the day, it had a reputation for being one of the BEST quick spots to grab a burger in the Most Magical Place on Earth. These days, the menu has changed to feature more Mexican fare (though there is still a burger on the menu) and it might not always be a spot on people’s radars. But…should it be? Frankly, Pecos Bill has changed and it’s not all for the best…
Disney is involved in a variety of lawsuits right now — on everything from Park Passes to the Reedy Creek Improvement District — but we’ve got a big update on one important one.
Reedy Creek Improvement District
A lawsuit was previously filed by the Central Florida Tourism Oversight District (the new name for the Reedy Creek Improvement District) against Disney in state court in Florida. This lawsuit claims that certain agreements Disney entered into with the old Board (which the new Board claims stripped them of their power) are null and void. The Board is suing to ask the Court to declare the old agreements invalid. Disney previously filed a motion to dismiss this lawsuit (essentially get it thrown out of court) for a variety of reasons and now we’ve got an update as to what will happen next.

Tiana’s Palace is currently under construction and set to open at Disneyland Park later in 2023. It will feature authentic New Orleans flavors in a Quick Service style restaurant. It is replacing the former French Market Restaurant. We previously got a peek at one of the signs for this new spot, but now something else has arrived!
Price increases seem to be the name of the game at Disney World, but some DEVASTATING ones have hit the parks in 2023.
Magic Kingdom
Reports previously indicated that current Disney CEO Bob Iger was “alarmed by increases in prices at Disney theme parks,” which former CEO Bob Chapek felt would “boost revenue and limit overcrowding.” Though that may be the case, and Iger has brought back some FREE perks to Disney World — like free overnight parking for guests at Disney World hotels — that doesn’t mean all price increases have stopped…
Something NEW is coming to the Haunted Mansion in Disney World and now we’ve got more details about it!
The Haunted Mansion
Back in September of 2022, Disney announced that the ICONIC Hatbox Ghost would be making his way over to Disney World’s version of the Haunted Mansion ride. Since then, we’ve been waiting for more details…and now we FINALLY have some!
Not all dishes at the 2023 EPCOT International Food & Wine Festival are created equal.
Food and Wine Festival
Some are new, while others are old. Some may BLOW you away, while others won’t impress you at all (or worse, are just plain bad). So how do you know where to start and what to get when there are TONS of booths and menu items to pick from? We’re here to help!
Important changes are being made at the former Reedy Creek Improvement District (now called the Central Florida Tourism Oversight District).
Reedy Creek Improvement District
The Board of Supervisors for the District is now made of Governor DeSantis’ appointees, and within just a few months, they have declared some of Disney’s agreements with the old board to be invalid, initiated a lawsuit against Disney in state court, heard some complaints and fears from Disney Springs restaurant operators, and more. And now more changes have been revealed.
Things are CHANGING in Disneyland!
