There are plenty of unique items that are NOT allowed in Disney World. Selfie sticks and large strollers are some common items that have over the years been banned from being brought into the parks. No Selfie Sticks! However, there are a few surprising items that absolutely ARE allowed in the parks! Service dogs are a common sight throughout the theme parks, but there’s another service animal that you may even know is allowed to enter Disney World. According to Disney, service animals include not only dogs, but MINIATURE HORSES as well! Disney’s official statement on service animals reads, “At Walt Disney World Resort, a service animal is a dog or miniature horse that is trained to do work or perform tasks for, and to assist, an individual with a disability.” Wait. Back up a sec. MINIATURE HORSES?! And no, we aren’t talking about those horses you see along Main Street, U.S.A.. Miniature horses are considered a legitimate service animal, and they are allowed inside Disney World! Let us repeat: (if you require a service animal) YOU CAN HAVE A TINY HORSE IN DISNEY WORLD. Main Street, U.S.A. Ok, did everyone fully process that? Yes, it’s unique and still kind of crazy-awesome at the same time. While these aren’t nearly as common a sight as service dogs, if you happen to spot a miniature (service!) horse in the parks, they are, surprisingly, A-OK! Imagine enjoying that Dole Whip, skipping around Magic Kingdom and you spot a Li’l Sebastian neighing around Adventureland!! We would drop our Dole Whips and start squealing. Since learning this, we are now on a MISSION to spot a mini horse in the parks. Someone please share a photo with us if you spot one! We need this in our lives in a BIG way. Walt Disney World Resort entrance Keep in mind that with any service animal, there are certain areas and attractions in the park that are off-limits. Make sure you take off-limit areas into account (it’s probably not ideal to attempt to take your mini horse on Splash Mountain!). Be sure to talk to a Cast Member if you wish to ride an attraction; they will either offer Rider Switch or have accommodations in place for your service animal such as a portable kennel. Read more about 10 items that are BANNED from Disney World! Service animals (including miniature horses ) may NOT ride the following: Magic Kingdom Park The Barnstormer Big Thunder Mountain Railroad Peter Pan’s Flight Seven Dwarfs Mine Train Space Mountain Splash Mountain Space Mountain EPCOT Mission: SPACE Soarin’ Test Track Test Track Disney’s Hollywood Studios Alien Swirling Saucers Millennium Falcon: Smugglers Run Rock ’n’ Roller Coaster Starring Aerosmith Slinky Dog Dash Star Tours – The Adventure Continues Star Wars: Rise of the Resistance The Twilight Zone Tower of Terror Rise of the Resistance at Hollywood Studios Disney’s Animal Kingdom Theme Park Affection Section at Rafiki’s Planet Watch Avatar Flight of Passage Expedition Everest – Legend of the Forbidden Mountain® DINOSAUR Kali River Rapids Maharajah Jungle Trek: Aviary Area Primeval Whirl Flight of Passage Ride Vehicle Service Animals Permitted with Caution There are some attractions, however, in which animals may be able to board on a case-by-case basis. Guests with service animals should check with a host for attraction and boarding information at the following attractions: Magic Kingdom Park Prince Charming Regal Carrousel (You could RIDE a horse WITH your horse!!) Prince Charming Regal Carrousel EPCOT Disney & Pixar Short Film Festival Spaceship Earth Omnimovers in Action on Spaceship Earth Disney’s Hollywood Studios Toy Story Mania! Toy Story Mania Disney’s Animal Kingdom Theme Park Gorilla Falls Exploration Trail It’s Tough To Be A Bug! Kilimanjaro Safaris Kilimanjaro Safaris Attractions not listed as limited of off-limits should be FINE to ride with your li’l mini horse. One day we’ll see a majestic mini horse riding The Many Adventures of Winnie the Pooh or Peter Pan’s Flight and our lives will be COMPLETE. Imagine you went to board Jungle Cruise and saw THIS: Not a REAL Mini Horse on Jungle Cruise. Only In Our Horse-Filled Dreams. We wouldn’t be able to keep it together. Keep in mind you will have to let your service mini horse (or dog) relieve itself when in the parks and Disney provides a detailed list of locations where this is permitted: Magic Kingdom Park Adventureland: adjacent to the Pirates of the Caribbean Frontierland: near the Big Thunder Mountain Railroad Liberty Square: behind the Liberty Tree Tavern Fantasyland: near the Walt Disney World Railroad Tomorrowland: By Space Mountain Restrooms Epcot Future World East: next to the restrooms behind MouseGear Future World West: next to the Imagination! restrooms United Kingdom: right of restrooms The space between the Outpost and Germany Pavilion Disney’s Hollywood Studios In the courtyard of First Aid Across from Baseline Tap House Toy Story Land: near Alien Swirling Saucers At the entrance to Toy Story Land Disney’s Animal Kingdom Theme Park Discovery Island: near First Aid DinoLand U.S.A.: next to the planter at the Restaurantosarus restrooms Asia: right of the planter at Maharajah Jungle Trek restrooms Rafiki’s Planet Watch: right of the planter at Conservation Station entrance Pandora: on path near the Satuʻli Canteen This may seem like a small detail to share but man, did it make our day. So if you’re in need of a service animal, maybe consider the regal, majestic, petite world of miniature horses. And — we’re not kidding — if you spot a mini horse in the wild in Disney World, we want PICS! If we receive any from readers, we’ll happily update this post, so check back! But in all seriousness, Disney World is happy to welcome service animals when required by guests and now we just so happen to have noticed that you have MORE than just canine options that qualify!

Lucky Brand All of the windows and doors were covered in black drapes, although the distancing markers were still on the ground.

Even though Disneyland and Disney’s California Adventure remain closed at this time, there are plenty of fall goodies to find in Downtown Disney! We’ve already taken a bite out of the Ursula Caramel Apple and the Magic Mirror Rice Krispie Treat at Marceline’s Confectionary, both part of the seasonal treats to arrive at the Anaheim resort this month. Ursula Caramel Apple With Halloween just a couple of days away, even MORE limited-time snacks have arrived, and much to our delight, this one is a DFB favorite meets all things Pumpkin Spice! Disneyland’s Churro Toffee is one of our must-have west coast-exclusive snacks, so when we heard that a Pumpkin Spice version of the classic toffee treat was debuting at Marceline’s, we knew we had to get our hands on it! Pumpkin Spice Churro Toffee We’re no strangers to Pumpkin Spice specials at Downtown Disney. We loved the Pumpkin Spice Churro over at California Churro Co., but Pumpkin Spice in TOFFEE form?! Stop. The. Presses. Pumpkin Spice Churro Toffee So what exactly happens when the classic Disneyland Toffee collides with the beloved Pumpkin Spice? We step into a fall wonderland! Pumpkin Spice Churro Toffee The Pumpkin-Spiced Toffee is the classic toffee that we all know and love, covered in white chocolate, pumpkin spice, and orange-colored sugar! The orange sugar added an extra bit of sweetness that you don’t notice as easily in the Disneyland’s Churro Toffee, so if you have a sweet tooth, this is the snack for YOU! Pumpkin Spice aficionados may be let down by the subtle flavor, however. Pumpkin Spice Churro Toffee While we wish this snack could hang around forever, the Pumpkin-Spiced Toffee is only around through October 31st, so be sure to grab one if you’re in Downtown Disney over the next couple of days! They’re available ONLY at Marceline’s Confectionary for $6.49. Click here to find out which FIVE fall treats we would trade our Pumpkin Spice Latte for in Disney World!

Since the reopening of Disney World, character meet and greets have looked a little bit different. Joy Strikes a Pose! You can spot your favorites in the character cavalcades at each park, or even frolicking in the grass at EPCOT. Recently, we saw Anna and Elsa greet guests from a distance and now, another crowd-favorite is returning to the meet and greet scene!

With Halloween approaching frightfully fast, we are bringing some ghoulish Disney Cruise Line fun to you at home. During our Halloween on the High Seas cruises, every Disney ship boasts its own signature Pumpkin Tree in the atrium lobby. Now, you can create your own pumpkin tree book nook at home using our DIY template. Disney Cruise Line Pumpkin Trees are inspired by Ray Bradbury’s classic tale about the traditions of Halloween, “The Halloween Tree.” The trees magically transform from eerie and barren into the life of the party, with sprouting Jack-O-Lanterns, flickering lights and a booming voice. Each Pumpkin Tree is unique and tended to by a mysterious caretaker, who tells stories of the haunted holiday. Before you get started making your own, gather your family to watch this video and learn more about the eerie legend of the Pumpkin Tree! Happy Halloween! http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/DisneyParks/~4/Z0uHAX00090View the full article

We’ve been keeping an eye on all of the construction going on at the France pavilion in EPCOT for the area that will become home to Remy’s Ratatouille Adventure, as well as La Crêperie de Paris! France Pavilion Construction Recently, we got a sneak peek at the attraction marquee coming to the ride building, and today we saw that had already been INSTALLED! That’s right — we’re one step closer to Remy’s Ratatouille Adventure being ready to open! The attraction marquee has been installed and is already in place and ready for guests to admire. We got the chance to see it today (from afar) as we zoomed past in the Disney Skyliner. Remy’s Ratatouille Adventure Marquee Installed Here’s a bit of a closer look at the sign. You can see it’s got Remy on top surrounded by lots of gold features, has the name of the attraction in the center, and has two spoons crossing each other on the bottom. Remy’s Ratatouille Adventure Marquee Installed The blue and gold in the sign really pop against the colors of the surrounding buildings.

Earlier today, the U.S. Air Force Air Demonstration Squadron – “The Thunderbirds” – flew over Walt Disney World Resort to kick off November’s National Veterans and Military Families Month and honor current, past and fallen military heroes. The Thunderbirds’ flyover took place almost a decade to the day after their last visit to Walt Disney World, on Oct. 27, 2010. This time, “America’s Ambassadors in Blue” performed two passes above Spaceship Earth at EPCOT, including the famous “Delta Break” maneuver. The flyover was both sentimental and meaningful for Walt Disney World, which has long celebrated members of the United States military. Fittingly, The Walt Disney Company founders, Walt and Roy Disney, both served the United States in uniform during World War I. The Walt Disney Company has also been a leading proponent of hiring, training and supporting military veterans with the Heroes Work Here initiative, the Heroes Supply Here program and Disney Veterans Institute. Footage of the flyover will also be included in this year’s virtual Snowball Express conference hosted by the Gary Sinise Foundation, which serves the children of fallen military heroes, their surviving parents and guardians, and Gold Star families. http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/DisneyParks/~4/DXl_jxLoox0View the full article

Holidays are looking PRETTY different in Disney World this year! Fantasy in the Sky Fireworks We’ve seen how the global health crisis has affected Halloween and Christmas in Disney World, but how might it affect New Year’s Eve? Here are the most surprising things about the last day of 2020 at Disney World! It might be the least crowded New Year’s Eve in the parks EVER. Even though Park Passes are filling up for Magic Kingdom and Hollywood Studios, we’re still not likely to see crowds ANYTHING like past years in the parks this year. Even if Disney Park Passes are unavailable, keep in mind that capacity is DRASTICALLY reduced right now. Heavy Fireworks Crowds – 2019 According to Bob Chapek, the parks are operating at 25% capacity. Even if this capacity is expanded by New Year’s Eve (which it may not be), it will be a big difference from the New Year’s Eves that have sometimes reached MAX capacity. Crowded Magic Kingdom So a big change is that day OR night, you won’t see typical crowds in the parks this year. It might feel pretty weird to have some elbow room while strolling around Magic Kingdom on the last day of the year! Click here to learn more about Disney Park Passes on New Year’s Eve! You CAN’T stay until midnight. Probably the MOST typical activity for any New Year’s Eve is the countdown to midnight, and that’s been an option in many of the Disney parks for years. This year, however, ALL of the parks are set to close WAY earlier than 12AM unless we see an hour change. Park Hours Magic Kingdom is set to close at 7PM, EPCOT will close at 8PM, Hollywood Studios will close at 7PM, and Animal Kingdom will close at 5PM. New Years Ears So, it looks like your countdown might have to take place back at your resort hotel this year. Of course, New Year’s Eve hours are subject to change so keep an eye on DFB to make sure you’re in the loop on all the changes. You can read about more potential options here. Click here to see HOW BUSY New Year’s Eve has been in the past. There might not be fireworks…but that could change. Obviously, fireworks are a pretty big part of many New Year celebrations. As of right now, fireworks remain suspended in Disney World and we’re not sure when they’ll return. That could mean a pyrotechnics-free New Year’s Eve. Fantasy in the Sky Fireworks In fact, New Year’s Eve fireworks are being canceled around the world, so at this time, we expect that fireworks will NOT be a part of this year’s New Year’s Eve in Disney World. Magic Kingdom fireworks Of course, Disney has specifically canceled some holiday-time events including Mickey’s Very Merry Christmas Party and Candlelight Processional. These were canceled to help minimize crowds, a similar reason for the canceled fireworks. So, if that reasoning stands fireworks will likely be a no-go. Fantasy in the Sky Fireworks at the Magic Kingdom Still, all is not lost. We DO know that Cinderella Castle will come to life with special projections. And Disney has announced the return of some familiar and new holiday entertainment offerings. Perhaps something like this will extend to New Year’s Eve! Click here to learn more about suspended fireworks in Disney World. Of course, all of this is subject to change. It’s entirely possible that a major change in the global health crisis will bring raised capacities, lengthened park hours, and fireworks. But at this time, it seems that New Year’s Eve will feel closer to a plain old Thursday in Magic Kingdom. New Years Glasses Keep an eye on DFB as we get closer to New Year’s to make sure that you know EVERYTHING you can expect for the holiday — whether it’s a change of plans or totally new announcements.
