List of opening attractions, shows and shops




Written by: James Williams 

Walt Disney World has given even more to look forward to once the parks reopen! 



Characters

While we know we won't be able to have our much loved Character Meet and Greets, we have received some good news.  We will still be able to see some of our favorite characters, and you might get to see them in a way you've never seen them before!  Here's the official statement from Disney:

If you’re hoping to see some familiar friends or take in the tunes of treasured performers, you’re in luck! Just as you may have seen recently at Disney Springs, our characters will appear in new and different ways that bring a smile to your face while also being mindful of physical distancing. From special cavalcades down the Magic Kingdom Park parade route and friends sailing the waterways of Disney’s Animal Kingdom Theme Park, to processions along the World Showcase promenade at EPCOT and motorcades on Disney’s Hollywood Studios’ Hollywood Boulevard, each area will come to life throughout the day. You never know when a party of your pals may come by, so be prepared for plenty of surprises!

Rise of the Resistance

  Written by: James Williams As we continue to get used to our "current normal", as I like to call it, at Walt Disney World there are still some questions about Rise of the Resistance.  Rise of the Resistance(RotR) is found at Disney's Hollywood Studio's in Galaxy's Edge.  If you have not experienced the virtual queue, or boarding pass, for RotR then this is a must read!
