The enchantment of the already-gorgeous Grand Hall is elevated with beautiful garland ordained with pumpkins and fall florals.

But of course, the highlight of the décor is the all-new Pumpkin Tree. Every Disney Cruise Line ship features a signature Pumpkin Tree in its atrium with a unique look and personality, and the tree on the Disney Wish features lighter bark, graceful branches and a mystical face, setting it apart from the rest. As the tale would have it, this enchanted tree – named Boo! – grew perfect gourds with the help of a Wishing Star at night, producing the perfect pumpkin that became the coach that carried Cinderella to the Prince’s Ball.

Also new this season, we’re putting a spell on Disney Cruise Line guests with a wickedly fun character meet and greet opportunity. While all characters on board adorn Halloween costumes as part of the festivities, Minnie Mouse, Daisy Duck and Clarabelle Cow can be found running amuck on each ship as their favorite Halloween sisters, the Sandersons from the movie “Hocus Pocus.”

Halloween Candy Pizza Cookie from Hollywood Studios is Treat and a Trick

Pizza Cookie
Halloween Candy Pizza Cookie from Hollywood Studios is Treat and a Trick

Does the new Halloween Candy Cookie Pizza taste like a pizza, or a cookie? We had to find out. With that red sauce and white cheese-like topping we didn’t know what to expect. We at Chip & Company took it upon ourselves to head over to Hollywood Studios and do a little investigating for you.

This cookie might be a trick to your eyes but it’s a treat for the tastebuds. You may want to share this one though because it is very sweet.

Halloween Candy Pizza Cookie Flavors

One of the first surprises is the texture of the cookie. The sugar cookie underneath is soft, bordering a crumbly texture. The soft cookie is in contrast to the hard white melted chocolate on top which can make eating the cookie in one piece a bit more difficult. My one complaint is there is too much white chocolate making this pizza cookie overly sweet.

The red sauce you see below the white chocolate is a strawberry jam that I thought had a nice flavor and complimented the sugar cookie well.

The toppings, while adding to the already high sugar content, were fun and festive. Mini M&M’s, sprinkles, candy corn, pumpkins, and the occasional eyeball made me think of Rizzo and his rat friends in the back of the restaurant throwing these pizzas together.

Rizzo is a wisecracking streetsmart rat and a loveable character from The Muppet Show.

Halloween Candy Pizza Cookie Price & Location

You can get this Halloween Candy Pizza Cookie in Hollywood Studios at PizzeRizzo’s quick-service pizzeria just across from the Muppet Vision 3D show for $4.29.

All in all, I think this is a fun and tasty snack that’s best shared with someone due to it being so sweet. It will certainly help give you a quick energy boost!

The Emmy Award-winning RWS Entertainment Group will once again partner with Give Kids The World and Island H2O Water Park to produce

the event.

“It has been a privilege to welcome the public for a glimpse into our storybook Village during the holidays the past two years. However, in order to preserve the life-changing experience we provide to wish families as increased numbers of guests are able to visit, we have made the decision to move Night of a Million Lights off-site – and truly appreciate Island H2O Water Park’s generosity, hospitality, and support,” said Give Kids The World President & CEO Pamela Landwirth. “We look forward to joining with Island H2O, sponsors, volunteers and community members to celebrate the season of joy and giving while making an immeasurable impact on the families we serve.”

Final Disney World Railroad Tracks getting ready to be installed in the Magic Kingdom. We have been following the progress of the Walt Disney World Railroad contribution happening under the new Tron Lightcycle/ Run Coaster for months now, and we have been seeing some real advancement lately.

The tunnel that runs under Disney’s newest coaster is complete, with tracks finally laid in place, and now it looks like the construction crew is laying the rock stabilizers between the tracks. Furthermore, we can see the ground leading out of the tracks that will reconnect the whole system is done and ready for track placement.

The Cast Member walkway through the backstage area leading to the Tron ride has been finished. The only thing truly left to do is see how the Cast will cross the railroad tracks and if Disney will be installing gates in the pathway.

New Marvel Experiences coming to Disney Parks & Cruise Line

With Super Hero offerings now at Disney Parks in Anaheim, Orlando, Hong Kong, Paris and Shanghai, and on multiple ships across the Disney Cruise Line fleet, panelists had so much to discuss about the interconnected storytelling that brings fans into the action and allows them to join the next generation of Super Hero recruits. Whether it’s introducing new characters or opening new lands, one thing is certain from the panel: these heroic experiences are just getting started.

Since the opening of Avengers Campus at Disney California Adventure park, the roster of heroes guests can encounter has continued to grow with each new film or Disney+ series, from Shang-Chi to America Chavez, Loki, Moon Knight, Ms. Marvel and so many more. With the Nov. 11 release of “Black Panther: Wakanda Forever,” guests will soon discover even more at the Disneyland Resort. Check out the teaser below.

M’Baku, one of Wakanda’s greatest warriors and chieftain of the Jabari Clan, will soon make the journey to Avengers Campus at Disney California Adventure. Stay tuned for more announcements coming later this month on what’s to come for Avengers Campus at Disneyland Resort in celebration of “Black Panther: Wakanda Forever.”

And also joining the Wakandan action just in time for the new film is Disneyland Paris! More details are coming soon on how the resort is celebrating the next chapter in the Black Panther story.

New Marvel Experiences coming to Disney Parks & Cruise Line

Disney Cruise Line guests can summon their inner Super Hero during an unforgettable day aboard the Disney Dream during select sailings from Miami in early 2023.

Occurring on one action-packed day during Marvel Day at Sea sailings, Super Heroes assemble aboard the ship in a full-scale takeover. The event includes all-day entertainment, encounters with Super Heroes and Villains, themed youth activities, an adults-only Ravagers party in the nightclub, special merchandise, unique food and beverage offerings and more. The event culminates with “Heroes Unite,” an action-packed show where the largest collection of Super Heroes and Villains face off in an exciting battle at sea — featuring incredible stunts, special effects, pyrotechnics and music taking over the upper decks of the ship.

As the Marvel Cinematic Universe has expanded, so has the roster of characters and stories we can bring to life on board, and it was announced during the panel that next year’s Marvel Day at Sea event will feature new characters and new entertainment inspired by recent films and television series. It’ll be everything our guests have loved about this event and more. If you love Super Heroes — and you want the perfect excuse to escape the winter and have an amazing tropical vacation — this is the cruise for you. More details about the new experiences coming to Marvel Day at Sea will be announced soon.

New Marvel Experiences coming to Disney Parks & Cruise Line

Announced earlier this year, Guardians of the Galaxy: Cosmic Rewind at EPCOT at Walt Disney World Resort will receive a special holiday remix just in time for the holidays. The Guardians will trade their classic hits playlist for a new holiday song for a limited time this holiday season. Guests will get the chance to help save the galaxy on the attraction they know and love all while rocking out to a mash-up of classic holiday tunes.

New Marvel Experiences coming to Disney Parks & Cruise Line

The panel may be over, but New York Comic Con attendees can still explore the Wonders of Xandar outpost. Following the successful opening of the Wonders of Xandar Pavilion at Walt Disney World Resort, Xandarians have traveled to New York to continue their mission of learning more about Terra (or as we call it, “Earth”). They’re trading Galactic Units in exchange for Terran artifacts or knowledge, and as it so happens, they also have a Zarg Nuts vending machine on site that accepts Galactic Units. Come meet the Xandarian Ambassadors, learn more about our shared galaxy and try Drax the Destroyer’s favorite snack for yourself!

The Wonders of Xandar outpost is inspired by Guardians of the Galaxy: Cosmic Rewind, an all new thrill-coaster at EPCOT in Florida. We know you’ll leave the space hungry for more…and luckily, Walt Disney World Resort is only a quick Terran flight away.
