Boy has it been a SAGA getting tickets for BOO Bash in Magic Kingdom. Boo Bash ©Disney This Halloween After Hours event kicks off in August, and it’s PRICEY! But demand is still high — so high that the phone lines went down when tickets first went on sale. And now, we’ve got another BIG update if you’re hoping to attend. BOO Bash’s most popular (and expensive!) night is Halloween — as you could imagine! So it’s no shocker that the very first date to sell out is October 31st. The Disney World website now indicates that BOO Bash tickets are no longer available for that day. ©Disney As of right now, ONLY Disney World hotel guests are able to purchase tickets. Sales open for the general public on June 15th. This means that, unless Disney adds availability, those guests will be unable to attend the event on the 31st. We’ll let you know if that becomes the case. Mickey Pumpkin However, there are still PLENTY of dates with open availability! You can check out the full calendar (with prices) here.

The last time we saw Mike and Sulley from Monsters, Inc., we were transported to their time at Monsters University where they first learned all about the fine art of scaring children. ©Disney But as we know, at the end of the first Monsters movie, Monsters, Inc., Mike and Sulley discovered that the power of laughter was far better at powering their world than scares. But what happened after that? Well, we’re about to find out with the new Disney+ series Monsters At Work, which picks up after Monsters, Inc. as the company makes the transition from scaring children to making them laugh. And according to a new trailer, Mike and Sulley have their work cut out for them in training the new monsters on how things are going to work. Although there are some new faces joining Monsters, Inc., it’s nice to see some of our old favorites returning, too (oh, we love you, Roz!). So be sure to tune in to Monsters At Work when it premieres on Disney+ on July 7th.

So you’re planning a trip to the 2021 EPCOT Food and Wine Festival! EPCOT International Food and Wine Festival We’ve been giving you lots of updates on what food booths will be available, how you should budget your eats, and what entertainment will be offered. But one of your biggest concerns may be about WHEN you should visit. And today, we’re breaking that all down for ya! If You Want Low Crowds If you’re looking for lower crowds throughout your Festival experience, you’ll want to avoid weekends and evenings. These are popular times for locals to visit! By booking for weekdays or arriving in the morning, you’re more likely to avoid long waits at the booths and that awkward looking-around-for-an-empty-table situation. EPCOT Festival Crowds You’ll also want to avoid the Festival’s opening day. People get EXCITED for Food and Wine, and there are bound to be big crowds on July 15th! Similarly, you should stay away from any holidays, like Columbus Day (October 11th). Check Out the Most Crowded Park Days in 2021! If You Want to Try a Lot of Food Disney has confirmed 32 booths so far for the 2021 EPCOT Food and Wine Festival. That’s a LOT of options! Of those 32, 8 are brand-new and 9 will not open until October 1st. We’re here for ALL the eats! Now, the park is likely going to be crowded for the first few days of October due to Disney World’s 50th anniversary celebrations (and the grand opening of Remy’s Ratatouille Adventure!). So if you want to take advantage of ALL 32 options, book in mid-to-late October. You’ll avoid the biggest of the 50th anniversary crowds while getting to sample eats from Brazil, India, Kenya, and more. Check Out the Booths That Are Arriving on October 1st! If You Want to Avoid the Heat Disney World is located in Florida, and as you can expect, it gets HOT in the summer. If you don’t want to be sweating buckets while you browse the booths, don’t book a visit in July or August. EPCOT gets HOT in the summer! Instead, save your vacation until September, October, or even November and enjoy that cooler weather. The festival kicks off July 15th and you’ve got until November 20th, which is the last day of the Festival! Just remember: you may not want to book in those first few days of October when the anniversary celebrations are kicking off. Check Out Our Month-by-Month Guide to Visiting Disney World!

In 2020, 98 Disney ears were released(!!), and a whole BUNCH of new ones have already been released in 2021! Will MORE Than 98 Ears Be Released This Year? So far, we’ve seen mint ears, Loki ears, Star Wars ears, and much more! But now a special new pair of ears has joined the bunch. What makes these new ears so unique? Well, they’re actually part of Disney’s designer ears collection, and to get them you’ll need a secret code! That’s right — the Karlie Kloss Designer Disney Ears are NOW available! Karlie Kloss Designer Ears We shared a sneak peek at these ears yesterday, but now they’re up for grabs. You can find them at Ever After Jewelry Co. in Disney Springs and in The Disney Dress Shop in Downtown Disney. But if you want to get them, you’ll have to use the secret code — CODE KLOSS! Remember to say Code Kloss! The ears were designed by model Karlie Kloss and are inspired by the next generation of female coders. They have a light blue bow in the center and coding designs on the ears! Check out those details! These are designer ears, so they are definitely on the pricier side. One pair will set you back $98! That’s a LOT for ears made of plastic, but they do come with their own velvet bag… Velvet Bag …as well as a display box that stands up if you fold the lid, which is nice to help store these and keep them safe. Perfect for safekeeping! Disney’s designer ears can sell out VERY quickly — and when we stopped by today, Ever After Jewelry Co. was down to its LAST pair! We’ll keep an eye out for a restock, but you’ll want to act FAST if you want to get your hands on these. Wondering what souvenirs are WORTH the cost in Disney World? Check out our video below about the 30 things you won’t regret buying in Disney World. We’ll keep an eye out for more new ear designs and let you know what we find. Stay tuned to DFB!

Disney has had a long-standing partnership with students. ©Disney Recently, we’ve seen the Disney College Program return, and 4th-graders created new ice cream flavors in Downtown Disney! And now, Disney’s introducing a new opportunity: Disney Imagination Campus. Disney Imagination Campus will be a “comprehensive collection of workshops,” designed in collaboration with Walt Disney Imagineering, for students in Arts and Humanities, Science and Technology, and Leadership and Innovation. The program will launch in January 2022, and there will be campuses in both Florida and California. ©Disney Maryann Smith, Vice President of Sales, Services & Events at The Walt Disney Company, explained that Imagineers helped “create new educational experiences to challenge students to use their imagination, all within our real-world learning laboratories and performance venues across our theme parks.” ©Disney Additionally, we’re seeing the return of Performing Arts workshops, which have been a component of the Disney Parks for over 40 years. Those will kick off in 2021. And a new collaboration with Kahoot! will allow students to participate in “interactive, self-guided challenges” while inside the Disney Parks or while participating in these various workshops. ©Disney This all sounds pretty exciting, doesn’t it?!

If you’ve planned a magical vacation that you’ve been waiting months for, the last thing you want to do is get kicked out of the parks! You paid for the vacation, so don’t end it early! There are a lot of ways to break the rules in Disney World and Cast Members have seen a wide variety of “creative” ways that guests try to push the limits. But recently, there have been some new policies and procedures put in place at Disney World — meaning that there are 5 NEW ways you could get kicked out of the parks! Refusing to Wear Your Face Covering Where Required As part of the health and safety policies for Walt Disney World’s reopening, guests ages 2 and up are required to wear a face-covering while indoors, in queues for rides, and at attractions. Guests are only allowed to remove their face covering when eating or drinking while stationary, while outdoors, while taking a photograph while stationary, or at a restaurant. Keep that mask on! When you book your Disney Park Pass reservation to visit, you sign a waiver stating that you agree to follow these terms. Therefore, if you refuse to wear your mask properly in the parks, then you run the risk of being asked to leave. Usually, Cast Members will issue warnings to guests if it’s a one-time thing, but if you continue to disobey, you might be kicked out. Click Here for More Details on Disney World’s Mask Policy for Photos! Presenting A Fake Boarding Pass One of Disney World’s newest and most popular rides is Star Wars: Rise of the Resistance in Disney’s Hollywood Studios. Ever since its opening in December of 2019, the ride has been operating on a boarding pass system. Guests are required to secure a boarding group in the My Disney Experience app in order to ride and even over a year later, it’s still REALLY tough to ensure you get one on any given day day. Some guests have been trying to skirt those rules with some predictable results. You won’t be fooling Disney! Many websites, ours included, have shared screenshots of boarding passes over time. Some guests have been showing screenshots from the internet and trying to pass them off as their own. Don’t be quick to think you can show a screenshot to a Cast Member at the ride and magically be whisked into the queue. Sorry guys, don’t even try it! Sorry guys but, as you might suspect…that it doesn’t work. When you go to board the attraction, Cast Members will scan your ticket or MagicBand and they’ll be able to tell if you ever had a boarding pass to begin with. Not only that but Cast Members can look you up on their end if need be and see if you actually got that boarding pass in the first place. You might think you’re slick, but Disney is slicker. Don’t try these shenanigans or you risk getting thrown out! Click Here for Everything You Need to Know About Rise of the Resistance! Using Others’ MagicBands/Tickets This one is kinda in the same vein as the boarding group one. You may think that just because Disney World isn’t requiring guests to do the finger scan at the park entrances right now that it would be easy to use someone else’s ticket…but that’s simply not true! Even though there aren’t any finger scans, Disney is still monitoring who is using what ticket. Just use your own ticket! If you try to use another guest’s ticket or MagicBand, you will likely be denied entry and face consequences from security. Don’t think you can outsmart Mickey Mouse! He has eyes everywhere. This isn’t one you want to find out the hard way (as you’re escorted off property). At this time, Disney is testing possible replacements for the biometric finger scan, including the option of facial recognition. We’re excited to see what tech they come up with next! Here’s More Info on the Facial Recognition Technology! Directing Profanity at Cast Members This one is currently a bigger deal at the Disneyland Resort but it’s possible that we could see it come to Walt Disney World in the future (plus it’s just…you know…a bad thing to do!). Language was recently added to the Disneyland Resort website to note that guests who use vulgar and derogatory words and phrases toward Cast Members may be kicked out of the park. Could we see this new policy at Disney World as well? Your mom’s old “if you can’t say something nice, don’t say anything at all” applies at Disney parks too. While this isn’t the official case in Disney World, many guests have been removed from the parks over the years for causing a scene. Screaming at Cast Members or other guests is generally a bad idea, plus it’s not a very nice thing to do. We’ve said it a thousand times but Cast Members are the REAL magic makers in Disney parks so don’t take out your frustrations on them. They’re just doing their job. You don’t want to be that guest! Click Here for Our Readers’ Favorite Cast Member Experiences! There you have it, 4 NEW ways to get kicked out of Disney World!

Disney World has seen quite a few price increases lately. France Pavilion Recently, the costs of the lightsaber experience at Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge, MagicBands, and even a meal at Chefs de France have gone up. And now, another restaurant in EPCOT’s France Pavilion is seeing its prices change. If you’re visiting L’Artisan des Glaces anytime soon, heads up!
