When the sun sets, the moon’s silvery light can create the most enchanting – and breathtaking – views at our Disney parks and resorts!  Whether it’s moonbeams illuminating Spaceship Earth at EPCOT or framing up a tropical paradise at Aulani – a Disney Resort, each destination offers its own inspiration.    

Tonight, our friends from across the globe are sharing some favorite Disney spooky moonrises to end your day.  Take a look at some Monday night “moon” magic: 

Our special look at moonrises begins at the Walt Disney World Resort where a beautifully rounded moon delivers a bewitching glow to Spaceship Earth at EPCOT.  

At Disney’s Vero Beach Resort, the water seems to dance in the moonlight during a starry night at the Disney Vacation Club location.  

High above paradise, the moon shines brightly during a not-so-spooky night at Aulani – a Disney Resort. 

At Disneyland Paris, the moon ushers in festive lights with decorations from Main Street U.S.A., to Sleeping Beauty Castle during the Halloween season. 

A spooktacular moon is majestically mirrored in the water at another Disney Vacation Club location – Disney’s Hilton Head Island Resort.

At Disneyland Resort, beams of moonlight were captured adding a magical glow to surroundings. 

And some not-so-spooky Halloween surprises were spotted during a moonlit night aboard a Disney Cruise Line ship.

We hope you enjoyed this special series of spooky moonrise views to end your day.  Be sure to check back for more Disney Halloween surprises by visiting our new “Everything Halloween” page.

Since the dawn of the millennium, we’ve gathered together to celebrate the magic of Disney pin trading.

Honoring the past 20 years, pin traders will have the chance to discover and purchase from a unique collection of pins created for this event, including over two dozen new products! This assortment includes items featuring classic Disney characters, our spookiest favorites, and Disney Parks around the world, just to name a few…

Admission to the Celebrating Twenty Years of Disney Pins Virtual Event also includes the opportunity to preview upcoming pin releases, a Disney artist and merchandiser virtual panel presentation, access to video content on various pin topics from familiar faces, downloadable celebratory art, ways to interact with other fans and of course, limited edition commemorative gifts!

As the classic 20^th anniversary symbol, the emerald color represents the two decades of pin trading as a community and is even featured on some of the pins!

Although this event will take place virtually for the first time, we invite you to connect with longtime friends and make new ones in the pin trading community—the family we’ve built together—no matter where you are.

Mickey Mouse and his best pals are returning to breakfast at Chef Mickey’s restaurant in Disney’s Contemporary Resort on December 16, bringing some new items to the menu inspired by their favorite dishes. 

Along with traditional breakfast favorites, you will be able to try the new Mickey’s “Celebration” Pancake, featuring whipped cream, celebration sprinkles, shimmering pixie dust and more. 

For something a bit more savory, we’re adding a new “Loaded” Potato-Cheese Casserole topped with smoked bacon crumbles and chives.

Last but not least, Goofy’s Banana Bread French Toast will combine unique flavors of banana bread baked in zesty orange-scented French toast batter, topped with Espresso-mascarpone cream, toasted bananas and chocolate crumbles.

If you can’t decide on which new item to try, you’ll be able to taste all three as part of an all-you-care-to-eat family style feast with other traditional breakfast favorites. 

When Mickey and friends return, the experience may look a little different than the last time you visited, but you can still expect to smile, wave and make unforgettable memories with some of your favorite characters as they parade through the restaurant in their chef’s best.

Reservations for Chef Mickey’s character breakfast will open on October 17, based on availability. In addition, Disney Resort hotel guests can make reservations up to 60 days in advance plus the length of their stay (up to 10 days). For more information, please click here.
