Star Wars 2020

Star Wars Celebration 2020 Tickets Now On Sale

As the press release puts it, “There has never been a more exciting time to be a Star Wars fan.” That may be true as Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker is set to arrive this December 20th to both close out the Skywalker Saga so far and, presumably, usher in the new wave of Star Wars stories. Fans will also have TV series like The Mandalorian and Star Wars Resistance to look forward to later this year, as well as the release of the video game Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order. Yeah, there’s a lot to be excited about.

Dole Whip

New Dole Whip Float Collectible Cup

In addition to the Tiki Juice Bar in Disneyland Park, guests can now pick up the pineapple refreshment of dreams at various outlets throughout the park including Tangaroa Terrace Tropical Bar & Grill and Trader Sam’s Enchanted Tiki Bar plus poolside at the Disneyland Hotel.

Additionally, at hotel locations, guests can also add a splash of rum to their Dole Whip Float for that authentic Jack Sparrow experience. 

Hopefully these will soon appear in Orlando and quench our thirst and collecting needs!

SeaWorld

SeaWorld's New Perk a game changer

SeaWorld have been having a terrible time lately with stock values plummeting, attendance figures down to early 90's numbers and revenues down 85%!; It's a desperate time for Orlando's third park.

Over the last couple of years it seems that the public have rapidly lost it's appetite for giant marine animals performing tricks in small pools, meanwhile SeaWorld has been desperately running PR to try to convince everyone that they are really lovely (with little success).

IAAPA

A sneak peak of rides to come...

The wonderful Tim Tracker recently visited IAAPA 2015. IAAPA is basically the 'Ideal Home Show' for rollercoaster manufacturers, it's an amazing way to see what we'll soon be riding in our favourite them parks a few years from now.

Though the video as Tim explored the show, you'll see glimpses of rides and ride systems which we recently mentioned in our 'Top Forthcoming Attractions' feature, especially for the Universal and Busch Gardens parks.

Take a look and see for yourself :)

Skyplex

Skyplex, world's tallest roller coaster, a step closer for Orlando.

Orlando's hope of having the world's tallest roller coaster is one step closer to becoming reality.

Orange County's board of commissioners granted zoning approval Tuesday night for the $500 million Skyplex Orlando project. The unanimous vote means that developer Joshua Wallack and his family can move to the planning and construction phase on their project to build the 570-foot "Skyscraper" coaster and surrounding entertainment complex on Orlando's International Drive.

Duffy

Duffy the Disney Bear leaving EPCOT

Duffy has never really hit it off with Walt Disney World guests and so he's going to be replaced by Daisy Duck. The last day that the Duffy character will have meet and greet duties at his World Showcase stop will be Oct. 3.

The change is part of Disney World's regular review of its entertainment options, a spokeswoman said Thursday. Duffy-related merchandise, including stuffed bears, will continue to be sold at various locations at Disney World, she said.

New “Disney After Hours” tickets on sale

Anyone who has ever stayed at a Disney resort hotel, you'll be familiar with the extra benefits that come with doing being a resort guest, such as having access to Extra Magic Hours. Extra Magic Hours allow a Disney Resort guest into the park for an additional extended time before or after other guests staying offsite, making it an added free bonus to staying onsite when you visit Walt Disney World.

However, Disney has just changed the game with an announcement that a new paid after hours event called “Disney After Hours” will be available for purchase.
