Are you planning a trip to Walt Disney World? Or just want to learn more about the parks and don't know where to start? Disney Darling breaks down the basics for you! Disneyland vs. Walt Disney World Disneyland and Disney World are two different parks, located on opposite sides of the country. As mentioned in this post , it is a common misconception that Disneyland and Disney World are the same thing. Disneyland is the first Disney theme park ever, opening in 1955. It is located in Anaheim, California, near Los Angeles. Disneyland has two different parks: Disneyland Park (with the castle), and Disney's California Adventure (or DCA). Disneyland also has three hotels and the Downtown Disney shopping district. Walt Disney World is located in Bay Lake, Florida, near Orlando. It opened in 1971, after Walt's passing.

Epcot had a big year in 2016 as it debuted two new rides, Frozen Ever After and Soarin' Around the World. This year there will be no new rides, but some exciting Festivals. Of course, Disney Parks are always changing. Keep your eye out for some new additions and updates.
The year starts off with a brand new festival, the International Festival of the Arts. It will be held on weekends starting January 13 through February 20, 2017. If it is a hit, we can expect the Festival to be annual.
International Flower and Garden Festival will take place March 1 through May 29, 2017. This year there will be some new topiaries, including those with detailed facial features and a giant Figment. There will also be an interactive play garden that features Cars.
And everyone's favorite, The International Food and Wine Festival will run August 31 through November 13, 2017. This is 2 weeks longer than last year's Festival.
And for those already looking forward to Christmas, Holidays Around the World at EPCOT will begin on November 24 this year.
Unfortunately, Aurora will not be meeting in EPCOT in 2017. She has been moved to the Princess Fairytale Hall in Fantasyland. Hopefully she will be back to the France Pavilion in 2018! Belle, however, will continue to meet in France.
Also, Aladdin is no longer meeting with Jasmine in Morocco. It will just be Princess Jasmine in her new costume that is a lot more conservative.
Baymax, Joy and Sadness will still be meeting in Future World across from Character Spot. It is not known how long they will stay here.
The Frozen Ever After ride will still be as popular as ever in 2017 as it is still fairly new. Same with the new Soarin' Around the World. It is recommended that you book FastPasses for these rides during your 2017 visit.
