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 - The Weeknd After Hours Nightmare House

Weekly News Roundup - Using MagicBand+ for Star Wars: Batuu Bounty Hunters Game

  • The MagicBand+ is finally here! With all of the features of the regular MagicBand, MagicBand+ comes with enhanced features and interactive experiences. The new wristband has motion recognition, color-changing lights, vibrations and more. Guests will be able to interact with the 50th-anniversary golden character statues as part of the Disney Fab 50 Quest, collect virtual bounties as part of Star Wars: Batuu Bounty Hunters and experience the nighttime spectaculars with lights and vibrations in sync with the fireworks. We tested out the MagicBand+ on the very first day, and here's everything you need to know!
  • If you're hopping over to the EPCOT International Food and Wine Festival at any time during the event, we've got you covered! Check out our new downloadable menus, organized in walking order, along with recommendations for tadpole-friendly items and Frog Family favorites, as well as shoutouts to special dietary needs and items for Emile's Fromage Montage.

Weekly News Roundup - New BoardWalk Deli

  • Exciting Disney World dining news: Disney released a first look at the menu for the new BoardWalk Deli, opening in Disney’s BoardWalk at Disney World later this summer. The deli will offer breakfast, lunch, dinner and dessert items inspired by the delis of the Northeast. Start your day with an Everything Bagel Sandwich, fuel up with a signature Italian sub or indulge in a cannoli or New Jersey Crumb Cake. Also, the exquisite Victoria and Albert's has returned to Disney's Grand Floridian Resort & Spa!
