Hello there and thank you so much for joining me today!!

In this episode, I discuss the permanent* dining options at Epcot. I do NOT discuss the individual booths for the festivals since they change so frequently. I discuss the snacks, quick service, table service and bars & lounges that are inside Epcot Center. For updated festival information, you can check the My Disney Experience App or Website. When you enter Epcot from either entrance, you can also pick up a Festival Passport for the current festival which will have an overview of the different food booths, merchandise and entertainment for that festival.

If you have not listened to my Epcot Overview episode or my Dining overview episodes, I do recommend listening them to those first before this one so you have a better background knowledge prior to listening.

Here is a link to the DINING PACKAGES. I do recommend checking them out if there is a band, performance or firework show that is a must-do for you. As discussed there are Festival Dining Packages where you get guaranteed and preferred seating to the concerts during the different festivals, and there are also Fireworks Dining Packages here at Epcot where you get food with a view of the fireworks.

While I do not want to be a Disney News source, in this episode I did talk about a few updates to attractions coming at the end of May 2026. If you want current news, here are some of my favorite creators and sources for that kind of Disney information:

-Living By Disney, Serena Lynn

-WDW News Today

-WDW Radio/Lou Mongello

-The Mouselets

-Disney Food Blog/ All Ears Net (same parent company)

Thank you so much for listening!

See ya real soon!

Hello there!

Thank you so much for joining me as I dissect my recent trip out west to California! If you didn't listen to my pre-trip report, you can listen to that here.

My family and I stayed at the Disneyland Hotel for three nights and did one park day at Disneyland park and one park day at California Adventure park. We did one park per day and added Lightning Lanes-both multi-pass and individual Lightning Lanes.

Again I successfully used the Stakeout App to snag a Goofy's Kitchen reservation. Apple app & Google App.

We rented a double stroller from Traveling Baby Co and had great success with that company.

To prep I really liked listening to Mix in Some Magic.

I also used three agents to help me. My friend Kerri (simplemagickerri@gmail.com) booked my travel, I asked my friend Amy (amy@simplyperfectvacations.com) tons of questions about dining recs and touring plans since she frequently goes to Disneyland and I asked my friend Kayla (kayla.read@amouseandabeach) for Lightning Lane strategy since she has younger kids like me! All of them would be happy to assist you in a planning a vacation.

Overall it was such a lovely trip! We had the best time! I cannot wait to go back!

Hello!

My husband, kids and I are headed out to California for my husband's 40th birthday this Spring Break! We will be in Palm Springs, but before heading there, we will be at the Disneyland Hotel in Anaheim, CA and will go to Disneyland Park and Disney's California Adventure Park. We are doing one park per day and we did purchase Lightning Lane Multipass with our tickets.

I am very new to Disneyland planning-I had very little background knowledge about planning trips to these parts so come along with me as I learn!
