So many festivals, not enough time!

While the EPCOT International Festival of the Arts has just begun, there are more celebrations on the way! We have news to share about the 2024 EPCOT International Flower & Garden Festival, as well as more news on Disney California Adventure’s plans for the Lunar New Year celebration, and we’ll even discuss the plans for the Universal Mardi Gras: International Flavors of Carnaval starting soon in Orlando!

Disney Imagineer Lanny Smoot will be inducted into the National Inventors Hall of Fame, and Disney took the opportunity to highlight one of his latest projects, the HoloTile Floor, which could be the next step in bringing VR experiences to the parks and beyond! Our panel will speculate about its possible uses.

Meanwhile, more news has come out about Tiana’s Bayou Adventure. According to a new report, the animatronics in the attraction will have the advanced physical faces that we’ve seen at World of Frozen in Hong Kong. And, even more areas close as construction picks up on this project at Walt Disney World.

We will also have our “It Came from the Parks” segment, featuring 3 bizarre tales from the week in Disney Parks news, as well as updates on DVC, Valentine’s Day offerings, and a look at new limited-time changes for the Tower of Terror in Japan.
