I launched my blog, DisneywithIzzy, on December 1, 2018. Two years ago! I started writing articles for my blog in October 2018 but I didn’t launch my blog until December 1, 2018.
The great view of Space Mountain, my favorite ride in Magic Kingdom, from The Contemporary Resort!

Thank you guys so much!!
I would like to also thank Disney World for being the place where dreams come true.
If you like my blog than you should definitely go to my DisneywithIzzy YouTube channel! I post videos from Disney World so even if you are not in Disney World you can feel like you are there.
Every year at Disney Resorts you can see amazing gingerbread displays but this year you will not be able to see those displays. In Epcot, the famous Candlelight Processional will be canceled this year. A celebrity would host the event and tell the Christmas story with a choir and fifty piece orchestra.
The Candlelight Processional.
Here is a list of all the modified Christmas plans from now until December 30, 2020.
All over the Walt Disney World Resort you can see some festive decorations, themed merchandise, seasonal food, drinks, and entertainment. Each Disney park and Disney Springs are all focusing on the holidays. Santa Clause is also having special appearances.
At night, Cinderella’s Castle in Magic Kingdom has projection effects. Cinderella’s Castle changes into different designs that are rotating such as a Christmas sweater and gold, red, and green ornamentation.
Not everything is canceled. Epcot’s International Festival of the Holidays and Disney Springs’ Christmas Tree display are coming back! Epcot’s International Festival of the Holidays is coming back on November 27, 2020. Joyful! inside World ShowPlace and Voices of Liberty at the American Gardens Theater Stage will be returning.
Even though Mickey’s Very Merry Christmas Party is not happening this year, at least you can enjoy the Christmas decorations and more at Disney World!
At the end of last year, The Muppets Present Great Moments of History show was closed. The Muppets came back earlier this year for President’s Day Weekend and they are now back again for Christmas!
The Muppets Present Great Moments of History was a show in Liberty Square where the Muppets would sing songs and sign The Declaration of Independence.
This time, instead of singing songs about Independence, the Muppets are singing “Jingle Bell Rock”. Gonzo and his chickens are now shaking jingle bells. The paneling below The Muppets is red, green, and decorated with candy canes and Christmas trees. I think this is a great idea to bring back the Muppets because they were such an important part of Liberty Square.
Be sure to see the Muppets while they are in Liberty Square and take a lot of pictures!
For the first time, Mars Wringly is virtually doing trick-or-treating with there app called Treat Town app. When you download this app you will be able to create a virtual door and sign up to be either a candy giver or a trick-or-treater. Candy givers can buy candy credits and let anyone including friends or family in The United States virtually trick-or-treat at their house.
This is the app.
Pretty cool right?
If you would rather be a trick-or-treater then you can virtually visit friends’ houses and receive candy. You can then redeem this candy to get ACTUAL candy.
This app will also let you be able to go trick-or-treating at The Haunted Mansion!
Now until October 31, 2020 you can virtually visit The Haunted Mansion while you are at home. You can look at characters from the ride and unlock Disney costumes. New costumes are unlocked every day so you will want to keep on the look out!
You can also virtually visit other places like M&M’s New York, M&M’s Racing, the Snickers House, and Skittles Rainbow.
I think this is a great way to enjoy Halloween without leaving your house! Happy Halloween!!
This blog post is a part of the My Top Five Favorite Things series and since I haven’t eaten at Tomorrowland or visited the shops I will just be telling you my favorite rides and shows.
5. My fifth favorite show is Monsters, Inc. Laugh Floor. On this show the characters from Monsters, Inc. are trying to give their city electricity from your laughter. I like this show because it is very funny!
4. Buzz Lightyear Space Ranger Spin is a ride were you and Buzz Lightyear are trying to defeat the evil emperor Zurg. This ride is like Toy Story Mania but not as good in my opinion. It’s just hard to tell if you have shot the aliens or not.
3. The Carousel of Progress is an indoor ride that anyone can do that teaches you about how technology has changed since the early 1900s. This may seem boring but it actually isn’t.
2. Tomorrowland Transit Authority PeopleMover is a relaxing ride where you get a tour of all of Tomorrowland. If you want to get away from the crowds than this is your ride!
If you have been reading my blog for a long time than you know that I love Space Mountain! This ride is amazing and I always love it! If you are afraid of roller coasters then DO NOT DO THIS RIDE! If you love roller coasters then this ride is perfect for you!
Have fun trying these rides and shows in Tomorrowland!
Fantasyland is probably my favorite land in Magic Kingdom because you can do so much in it even if it is raining.
5. My fifth favorite thing to do is watch the show Mickey’s PhilarMagic. This show is indoors and Donald Duck steals Mickey Mouse’s hat and is suddenly in other Disney movies! When the show is over you don’t have to go back outside because there is a gift shop.
4. My fourth favorite is The Many Adventures Of Winnie The Pooh. In this ride you get to visit Winnie the Pooh and friends! This ride is great to do while it is raining because when you are done there is also a Winnie and the Pooh themed gift shop.
3. Under The Sea: Journey Of The Little Mermaid is a ride that tells you the story of the Little Mermaid. I really enjoy this ride and even better, it is INDOORS!!
2. Big Top Souvenirs is a ginormous store that sells Story Book mercandise. Even if you don’t want to buy anything you can still look inside of the store and you will be dry!
If you have been reading my blog for a while then you know that I love Be Our Guest. At this restaurant you eat at Beauty and The Beast’s castle. You can choose from three themed rooms and it is a great way to stay indoors while it rains in Fantasyland.
I hope you enjoyed my list and I hope it helps you while it rains in Fantasyland!
It used to be that you could only wear a costume if you are under the age of 14. If you are 14 or older though you are still not allowed to wear a costume mask. You are still required to wear a face covering.
Disney also announced that from September 15-October 31, 2020 fall decorations and Halloween festivals will return. Mickey, Minnie, and friends will be wearing Halloween costumes, Chip N Dale will be in costumes in Frontierland, and other Disney characters will be dressed up while riding horse drawn trolleys down Main Street U.S.A.
There will also be themed treats, themed photos, and more!
Fantasyland is in Magic Kingdom and is home to one of my favorite restaurants in Disney World! Fantasyland also has two different areas located inside, one is called Storybook Circus and the other one is called the Enchanted Forest.
Rides: The rides located in Storybook Circus are The Barnstormer and Dumbo The Flying Elephant.
The Barnstormer is a roller coaster made for kids because the drop isn’t that high. I really like this ride though my only complaint is that this ride is really short. (Less than a minute!) Dumbo The Flying Elephant is a fun ride where you get to ride Dumbo high in the sky and you get a great view of Magic Kingdom!
The ride in the Enchanted Forest is Under the Sea: Journey of the Little Mermaid. This ride tells you the story of the Little Mermaid.
The other rides in Fantasyland are It’s A Small World, Mad Tea Party, Peter Pan’s Flight, Prince Charming Regal Carousel, Seven Dwarfs Mine Train, and Winnie the Pooh.
On “It’s A Small World” you ride in a boat and dolls all around you sing “It’s A Small World”. The coolest part is that all the dolls are from around the world and sing in their language. Warning: This song WILL get stuck in your head!
Mad Tea Party is a ride where you sit in a large teacup and spin around and around. I have never done this ride because I don’t want to get sick.
On Peter Pan’s Flight you get to fly in the sky and fly past mermaids, London, and an epic battle between Peter Pan and Captain Hook.
Prince Charming Regal Carousel is a Cinderella themed carousel. Seven Dwarfs Mine Train is a roller coaster and it is really fun!
The Many Adventures Of Winnie The Pooh is a ride where you meet everyone from the Hundred Acre Woods and learn the wonderful thing about Tigger.
Entertainment: Enchanted Tales With Belle is in the Enchanted Forest and you can take part in the show! You can play the characters from the movie Beauty and the Beast. Mickey’s PhilharMagic is a show where Donald Duck steals Mickey Mouse’s hat and winds up in other Disney movies!
Food: Cinderella’s Royal Table is a restaurant located inside Cinderella’s castle. While you eat, you meet Disney princesses.
Be Our Guest is one of my favorite restaurants in Disney World! Located in the Enchanted Forest, you get to eat inside Beauty and the Beast’s castle and the food is really good! (You can read my review of Be Our Guest here!)
The ballroom in Beauty and the Beast’s castle.
Gaston’s Tavern in the Enchanted Forest serves Warm Cinnamon Rolls, Roasted Pork Shank, Chocolate Croissants, and many other snacks! The inside of Gaston’s Tavern is created to look just like the tavern in the movie.
Pinocchio Village Haus has seating with a view of “It’s A Small World” and through out the restaurant there are murals from Pinocchio.
Inside of Pinocchio Village Haus.
Storybook Treats serves ice cream, milkshakes, and sundaes. Cheshire Cafe also serves snacks like the Cheshire Cat Tail. The Friar’s Nook serves macaroni and cheese and hot dogs.
Shopping: Bibbidi Bobbidi Boutique is a shop where if you are a girl between the ages of 3 and 12 you can dress up as your favorite princess. Boys can be dressed up as knights. Big Top Souvenirs is where you will find Storybook Circus merchandise. I have been inside this store and it is huge!
Bonjour! Village Gifts in the Enchanted Forest sells Beauty and the Beast merchandise. Fantasy Faire is located next to Mickeys PhilharMagic and they have a big selection of Minnie Ears. Hundred Acre Woods sells Winnie The Pooh merchandise. Sir Mickey’s sells hats and snow globes. Tinker Bell’s Treasures sells princess merchandise.
Now you know about what rides, entertainment, food, and shopping are in Fantasyland!
If you have already bought a ticket for Mickey’s Not So Scary Halloween Party you can get a refund. Disney H2O Glow Nights is an event at Disney’s Typhoon Lagoon that will also be canceled. You can also get a refund for that event as well.
Disney has said that changes are coming to the 2020 Epcot’s Food And Wine Festival as well as Mickey’s Very Merry Christmas. I will tell you about those changes in different blog posts so keep on the look out!
Magic Kingdom and Animal Kingdom will be opening on July 11 while Hollywood Studios and Epcot will open on July 15. Below I will be telling you about the rides and shows that will be reopening at Magic Kingdom. I will do separate articles on the other three parks.
