Disney’s Blizzard Beach Closing this Weekend Due to Cold Temps
Disney’s Blizzard Beach Water Park will be closing this weekend due to a poor weather forecast. The park will be closed on Saturday, February 17 and Sunday, February 18, 2024.
This isn’t the first time one of the water parks at Walt Disney World Resort has closed due to cold temperatures. This weekend the temperatures are forecasted to drop to the mid-50s and it is supposed to rain during the day.
Disney’s Blizzard Beach is currently the only Disney World water park open. Disney’s Typhoon Lagoon is closed for refurbishment and is set to reopen on March 17, 2024.

Victoria & Albert’s at Disney’s Grand Floridian Resort Earns Forbes Travel Guide Five-Star Rating for 2024
Victoria & Albert’s, a signature restaurant at Walt Disney World, has received a 5-star rating from the Forbes Travel Guide for 2024! This is the only restaurant in Central Florida to achieve this coveted rating for 2024.
“There is no shortage of upscale dining experiences at Walt Disney World Resorts, but when it comes to personalized service, theatricality and sheer luxury โ both in the room and on the plate โ Victoria & Albertโs reigns supreme.
This jewel box of a restaurant is nestled on the second floor of Disneyโs Grand Floridian Resort and Spa, which evokes Floridaโs seaside retreats during the Victorian era.
The property itself boasts more than 800 rooms, but Victoria & Albertโs welcomes a mere 50 guests for just one seating each evening. If you have your heart set on dining here, youโll need to plan ahead โ seats can fill up nearly six months in advance for the chance to try the exquisite modern American cuisine in elegant surroundings.”
The Forbes Travel Guide listed the following as highlights at Victoria & Albert’s:
Dinner is an extravagant affair where you can choose between a seven- and a 10-course chefโs tasting menu, as well as an optional wine pairing selected by the sommelier. More than 700 varietals from 35 regions are available by the bottle, all overseen by maรฎtre dโhotel Israel Pรฉrez, who also orchestrates the impeccable service.
The hushed and intimate Queen Victoriaโs Room accommodates just eight guests to partake in a 10-course meal featuring French trolley service with table-side preparation and wine pairings.
Enjoy an intimate behind-the-scenes look at the restaurantโs intricate culinary preparations when you book a seat at the chefโs table. This exclusive spot in the grand kitchen allows for an up-close view of the culinary team in action, a champagne toast with the chef and 10 courses expertly prepared just steps away.
With two members of the waitstaff solely dedicated to each table, you can expect your servers to know you as well as they know every detail of the menu.
Unforgettable extras include live music from a harpist, an upholstered footstool to hold each womanโs purse (as well as a pashmina to match her outfit, should she become chilly), different breads and butters between courses, a choice of treats from the resident chocolatier served in a customized wooden box and a personalized menu to take home.
