Pixar Place Hotel at Disneyland Resort now offers two new two-bedroom themed premium suites inspired by beloved Pixar films!

Inspired by Pixar Animation Studios’ “Coco,” this new two-bedroom themed premium suite at Pixar Place Hotel features Oaxacan-style architecture, terracotta tiling, Mexican artisan quilted and woven pieces, a fireplace, unique handcrafted wooden furniture, and thoughtful touches of hand-painted art. The Coco Suite pays homage to the film’s Rivera family hacienda with many family photos and mementos.

With a push of a button that says “Buenas Noches,” a carved alebrije of Dante brings the room alive with light and projected shadows blooming and dancing across the ceiling, bathing the space in the glow of celebration.

Inspired by Pixar Animation Studios’ “The Incredibles,” another new two-bedroom themed premium suite has a mid-century design with a “spy-fi” twist. This suite includes a primary bedroom for the Parr parents, with a connecting room for Edna Mode designed by Edna herself. Beginning with a hand-scanning prop at the entryway, guests will encounter super-inspired touches, special effects and other surprises. 

Both suites are now available for booking!

The Family Beach Cabanas at Disney Castaway Cay now have a new name – Sandcastle Cabanas! This name change adds even more magic and fun to the island experience for our guests. When booking a Sandcastle Cabana online under My Cruise Activities, guests will see the cabanas listed as follows:

• Castaway Cay – Sandcastle Cabana (cabana number) – Family

With this change, ‘Sandcastle Cabanas’ and ‘Mickey and Minnie Cove Cabanas’ can now be viewed on the new map of Disney Castaway Cay.

Please note, booking a cabana is based on availability. Cabanas can be pre-reserved online at www.disneycruise.com under My Cruise Activities. The cabanas can only be booked at a reservation level. When booking online, only guests in the reservation for which the cabana is being reserved should be selected to confirm the reservation. Additional Guests (up to 10) can be added to the cabana reservation onboard at the Port Adventures Desk or at Guest Services.

Later in the summer, “The Magic of Disney Animation” will open and invite us all inside the world of Walt Disney Animation Studios and its beloved, playful creations. Just like in the award-winning short “Once Upon a Studio,” animated characters come to life; characters will leap from their portraits, draw with us, and invite us into a “Drawn To Wonderland” playground inspired by Disney Legend Mary Blair’s original “Alice in Wonderland” concept art.

Over at Disney’s Hollywood Studios, “Disney Jr. Mickey Mouse Clubhouse Live!” will debut this summer packed with upbeat tunes. Guests will be dancing along with Mickey Mouse and Minnie Mouse as they embark on a road trip to find some of their best pals – Goofy, Daisy and Pluto, of course – for the party. Guests may have seen this show over at Disneyland Resort in California, and soon you’ll be able to join in on the fun in the newly reimagined Walt Disney Studios area at Walt Disney World.

Get ready to dance at GoofyCore in EPCOT, play games with favorite characters while out and about in the parks, and enjoy new and refreshed attractions this Cool KIDS’ SUMMER when even more family fun comes back to Walt Disney World in 2026!

Speaking of fresh air … fresh mountain air will be calling our names when Big Thunder Mountain Railroad reopens this spring at Magic Kingdom, with touches of new magic and a crevasse-deep to mountain-top refurbishment. Guests might remember that we shared details about beautiful – yet menacing – Rainbow Caverns deep in the heart of this mysterious mountain. We might find more trouble than gold in that thar wilderness!

Across Magic Kingdom in Tomorrowland, get ready to take on Evil Emperor Zurg with the help of updated ride vehicles, cool new handheld blasters, and interactive targets at Buzz Lightyear’s Space Ranger Spin … and guests of all ages won’t need to wait too long to try for that Galactic Hero rank, because the attraction reopens spring 2026!

The EPCOT International Flower & Garden Festival 2026 dates will run from March 4, 2026 to June 1, 2026.

Get ready to stroll past whimsical topiaries and lush gardens, savor mouthwatering bites at Outdoor Kitchens, and jam to live tunes during the Garden Rocks Concert Series.
