Mary Poppins attraction coming to the UK Pavilion in Epcot !

Epcot is opening Disney World’s very first Mary Poppins attraction, and it’s going to be supercalifragilisticexpialidocious!

Dick Van Dyke himself took the stage at Disney’s D23 Expo fan convention over the weekend to reveal the news, which came as an utter surprise to theme park fans.

Epcot will also expand upon the beloved film’s charming setting as Epcot’s United Kingdom pavilion opens its own version of Cherry Tree Lane, allowing guests to walk its iconic cobblestone street like Jane and Michael Banks.

No details were provided as to what the first Mary Poppins attraction will entail and whether it will be a show or a ride , but we can only assume it will be practically perfect in every way.

Epcot is undergoing a massive transformation that will see a retheming of the entire park beyond World Showcase, and the addition of Mary Poppins marks the move toward adding a cinematic tie-in to each of the 11 featured countries.

Similar to how Epcot’s Norway pavilion embraced “Frozen” theming with experiences including a shop, princess-meet-and-greet, and Frozen Ever After ride, the United Kingdom pavilion, which currently hosts a Mary Poppins meet-and-greet, is likely to retain its historical nods while embracing storylines and characters from the films.

The France pavilion will honor “Beauty and the Beast” in a new sing-along show debuting in January, as well as “Ratatouille” with a ride opening summer 2020.

Meanwhile, a live puppet show, interactive exhibit, and marketplace stalls honor Pixar’s “Coco” in Mexico, showing how Epcot is incorporating box office hits more and more within its attractions.

A “Moana” warrior princess and “Guardians of the Galaxy” superhero squad will be part of the park’s future as well, but the addition of Mary Poppins is nothing short of historic.

This newly announced attraction will be the very first permanent ode to the Julie Andrews film which debuted in 1964 and saw a resurgence with last year’s Emily Blunt-helmed “Mary Poppins Returns.”

A stunning new poster featuring the whimsical nanny floating above Cherry Tree Lane and the London skyline also debuted at Disney’s D23 Expo fan convention over the weekend.

Disney World Skyliner Ride set to open September 29th 2019!

The Disney Skyliner is set to officially open on September 29th 2019 ! And seeing testing of the ride/gondolas, is almost daily at this point .

This means we are just about 2 months away from taking a flight in these gondolas around the Walt Disney World Resort.

Anticipation of a soft opening from several Skyliner Stations is kinda expected later this month .

Blue, yellow, and red signage is on the entrance to the bridge from the Pop Century side of the Station.

So you know what that means, it’s getting closer to finally ride & experience traveling around on Disney’s newest transportation service and ride !

Something that still has guests scratching their heads . Will be this interesting “Passive Ventilation Technology” and how it will hold up to no air conditioning in the Gondolas !

Disney icons such as Mickey, Minnie, Pluto, Goofy and Chip & Dale will be featured on the gondolas, along with some others .

So will you be climbing aboard one of these once it’s officially open ? Or keeping yourself and your feet firmly on the ground ?

Make sure to take a look at how the “Skyliner Route” will be laid out, and see if your next trip , you’ll be staying along the route to see the Skyliner in action throughout your stay !

Universal Orlando Announces New Theme Park – “Epic Universe”

Universal’s Epic Universe will offer an entirely new level of experiences that will forever redefine theme park entertainment.

Disney Freebies for birthdays, anniversaries and other special Event’s!

Will you (or someone in your group) be celebrating a birthday, engagement, anniversary or other special event during your trip to Disney World? 

If so, you’re bound to get some Disney freebies & extra pixie dust !

Here’s a little list of things you can get for “for free”, for those special times while at Disney World :

1.) Celebration buttons !

Get these at your resort front desk or any of the Guest Relations desks in the parks ! They are free, and can be for birthdays, first visits , anniversaries or a special accomplishment !

“Just let them know what your celebrating, so they can write your name on the correct button”!

2.) free “Icee” (your choice of flavor) at “Club Cool” in Epcot at the counter ! If it’s your birthday, let them know (they may ask for your ID) and they will tell you the Icee Flavors they have to choose from and you’ll be able to enjoy that yummy & refreshing freebie !

3.) Also while at “Club Cool” in Epcot, go enjoy all the free sodas from Countries around the world ! So many to try out and don’t forget to try the infamous “Beverly” flavor from Italy !

4.) Don’t be surprised how many times you may hear “congratulations or happy birthday/anniversary” while you have your free celebration buttons on !

“Enjoy it, it’s your special day“!

As well, Cast Members (employees) offer freebies to some people at random, so don’t be surprised if one stops you when they notice your celebration button for a surprise or treat !

Some of the things we’ve be given so far for our birthdays and anniversary have been things such as, free pins from Pin trading stations, being pulled to front of the lines on rides . As well, free chocolates, cupcakes , candy & other goodies !

5.) Have a Restaurant reservation ? Well, once again the cast members are quite the magical people !

And if they spot your celebration buttons you may find yourself getting a free dessert or a special card signed by characters .

Or you may even find cast members singing happy birthday to you !

6.) Heading to Disney Springs ? Many of the Sweet Shops give out samples/goodies (and not just for celebration folks) !

Make sure to check out , Ghirardelli Chocolate shop, Goofy’s Candy Company and the Ganachery to get some freebies to enjoy .

7.) Free Starbucks? If it’s your birthday, yep ! Sign up for “Starbucks Gold Rewards” prior to your trip and make sure you have the Starbucks app downloaded on your phone.

I wouldn’t wait to do this, since Disney Wi-Fi can be spotty and you likely won’t get your birthday reward in time.

With your reward ready, head to Starbucks in Epcot, Magic Kingdom or Disney Springs to pick any drink of your choosing !

Hey it’s your birthday , so try something wild on the menu. You can even pick a “secret menu” drink , so the sky’s the limit!

8.) Get “Pixie dusted” to celebrate your special event !

Head straight through the Castle and back to the “Castle Couture” shop !

Find any cast member in there and let them know about your special day or celebration, and ask to be “Pixie Dusted” !

Why not sparkle through the parks to make your event even more magical !

So don’t forget to enjoy these freebies & celebration freebies during your next stay in Walt Disney World!
