Another week and Disney just cannot stay out of the headlines. First up is the news that has theme park fans buzzing — Disneyland Resort rolled out its annual October price hikes. Ticket prices for nearly all tiers jumped, with the highest single-day ticket option now an eye-watering 224 dollars. Even Magic Key annual passes at the top tiers spiked, with the Inspire pass now costing 1,899 dollars. According to Chip and Co, the lowest entry point holds at 104 dollars, but expect sticker shock for pretty much everything else, especially for weekends or special add-ons.
Not to be outdone, Walt Disney World also made news, but this time with a viral storm of misleading headlines declaring attendance at “historic lows.” MickeyBlog set the record straight, explaining that while crowds thin out every September — because school is back in session — reports of catastrophic attendance drops are exaggerated and timed to rattle the stock price. Actual tourism numbers for Florida are up so far this year, with Disney Experiences seeing an eight percent operating income bump in the last reported quarter.
Still, not everything in the parks is rosy. Passholders are grumbling more than usual, according to Inside the Magic and Allears, with rising costs, fewer perks, and abrupt closures all adding to the chatter. The looming shutdowns in Animal Kingdom have tempers flaring. Two restaurants, Trilo-Bites and Dino-Bite Snacks, are closing permanently this month as part of the big transformation of DinoLand USA into the new “Tropical Americas” zone, which promises “Encanto” and “Indiana Jones” attractions. Harambe Market will also close temporarily to pivot its menu, and fans are speculating online about what new foods and experiences will come next.
Meanwhile, Disney announced that the beloved “Vacation Fun” animated short attraction in Hollywood Studios will shutter for refurbishment beginning October 20 with no solid reopening date, according to DisneyFanatic. Social media is full of nostalgic posts as families rush to snap last-minute photos in the themed Mickey Shorts Theater before it goes dark for updates.
On the business side, Disney’s CEO Bob Iger continues a high-stakes balancing act. While the rest of Hollywood rushes out of linear television, Disney remains the last big player committed to broadcast, but likely not for long. MickeyBlog reports Iger’s successor has not been chosen yet, and all signs point to the company finally severing ties with unprofitable TV assets after his departure in less than 15 months. All eyes are on the November earnings report for hints about Disney’s next move in the marketplace — especially with over 183 million subscribers now funneling into the newly unified Disney Plus and Hulu streaming ecosystem.
And yes, in international streaming news, this week marks the end of the Star brand overseas. Hulu is now replacing Star in many countries, a move meant to simplify global branding and strengthen the Disney Plus content library. In the US, Hulu as a standalone app is on borrowed time, with its full absorption into Disney Plus pegged for 2026, per the company’s own timeline.
All told, Disney’s week was a wild mix of price increases, food closure drama, theme park transformations, streaming consolidation, and relentless speculation about its corporate future. As always, the Mouse knows how to keep itself at the center of the conversation, whether it wants to or not.
