Hi there! Welcome to our weekly roundup of the most interesting theme park news around the Walt Disney World Resort, the Universal Orlando Resort, SeaWorld Orlando and other theme parks.

Here Are This Week’s Theme Park Highlights:

Weekly News Roundup - New "Moana" Room at Disney's Polynesian Village Resort

  • You know what's calling me? The reimagined "Moana"-themed rooms at Disney's Polynesian Village Resort! The Disney Deluxe Resort hotel fully reopened July 19 with a brand-new look. The guest rooms feature a new color palette inspired by the Pacific Ocean and its islands, as well as details, patterns and textures from "Moana." You may even spot some characters if you look closely! Fan-favorite tiki bar, Trader Sam's Grog Grotto, also reopened, but the porte-cochère and monorail station still remain under construction.
  • ICYMI: More entertainment and attractions are returning to Walt Disney World Resort! At Disney's Hollywood Studios, the nighttime projection show, "Wonderful World of Animation," will light up the night sky starting Aug. 1, and "Beauty and the Beast — Live on Stage" comes back Aug. 15. Visit the monsters of comedy at Monsters, Inc. Laugh Floor, beginning Aug. 8 at Magic Kingdom, and get your questions ready before Turtle Talk with Crush reopens Aug. 21 at EPCOT. Additionally, the Hall of Presidents will return sometime in August with the addition of President Joe Biden.

Weekly News Roundup – First Look at Decor at Orlando Int'l Airport

  • Last week, we reported that a reimagined Jungle Cruise reopened at Disneyland Park (watch Tad's video above to hop aboard!). It hoppens to be just in time for the world premiere of the new "Jungle Cruise" movie! The red carpet event will be hosted at Disneyland Park on July 24. You can be a part of the celebration, as Disney Parks Blog will live stream the premiere on the blog, Facebook and Twitter. "Jungle Cruise" will officially debut June 30 in theaters and Disney+ with Premier Access.

That’s it for the theme park news this week! Have a great weekend.

Hoppy planning!

Keep hopping, Mommy Frog!
