I visited the Magic Kingdom on a few evenings this week and found a few newsworthy items to share, so let’s take a look around the park (and a nearby resort):

Starting at the Grand Floridian, the carpet in the lobby was replaced recently

While there isn’t as much resort specific merchandise here as there was before, there is a new luggage tag and key chain

They also have a dVC 25th anniversary t-shirt for sale

On to the Magic Kingdom

The stage is being built for Mickey’s Royal Friendship Faire

A lot of facade work happening in Liberty Square

New Darth Vader MagicBand available

Some new phone case designs can be found in Tomorrowland

The Wondground Gallery art is gone from this location, but the Space Mountain merchandise moved to this wall now

New Mickey balloon pin

Some work happening on the exterior of Carousel of Progress, looks like they are just replacing lights though

Some of the monorails are getting new vents that are black instead of the old grey

Finally found the Star Wars attraction poster shirts in the Emporium

TIE Fighter popcorn bucket now available in Tomorrowland, but it’s cheaper now

The Beef Stew is gone from Gaston’s Tavern

A ham and cheese stuffed pretzel is available now

It wasn’t awful, but it kind of tasted like a Hot Pocket…

Prairie Outpost and Supply in Frontierland was closed recently, a product of budget cuts

This store sold candy, baked goods, and bottled drinks for the most part

Golden Oak Outpost is now selling the souvenir Country Bear Jug

Some new luggage tags on sale at the Emporium
