Disney World and Disneyland have been closed since March, but attractions over on the east coast have been slowly opening up to guests again.

Universal Orlando plans to open its theme parks this week and Disney World will follow next month. Earlier today, we learned that Disneyland Resort is now only accepting reservations beginning July 15th. But according to recent reports, Universal Studios Hollywood is already considering opening the theme parks in July.

According to The Hollywood Reporter, one of the unions representing Universal employees shared with its members that Universal Hollywood is “hopeful” that the whole theme park will reopen in July.

The message from the International Alliance of Theatrical Stage Employees also stated that CityWalk could open “‘on a limited basis’ as soon as June 8th.”

Their county was recently cleared to reopen in-person dining and retail, but Universal has not released an official statement on their reopening timeline for CityWalk or the theme parks. We will continue to keep you updated as we learn more!

When Disneyland reopens, will it be similar to how Disney World is planning to reopen? You can read more about their plans here!

Restaurants such as Morimoto Asia are seating their last reservations at 6PM to accommodate the new hours.

Our last reservation will be at 6:00 pm to comply with Orange County’s 10 p.m. curfew, effective today, Sunday, May 31st. This will allow our employees and guests time to return home. We apologize for any inconvenience.

Disney Springs Is a Little Busier Today With a Short Virtual Queue in Place

Post author By disneyfoodblog.com
Post date May 30, 2020

We brought you along with us to see the reopening of Disney-owned locations in Disney Springs this week.

Disney Springs

In the days before these locations opened, Disney Springs was consistently pretty quiet. But the morning World of Disney reopened, things were bonkers. We’re talking a six hour wait bonkers. But we’re back in Disney Springs again today to see if crowds are still steady.

The new reopening procedures at Disney-owned locations such as World of Disney and the Marketplace Co-Op brought about a virtual queue system to manage crowds. Similar to the virtual queues in the parks for things like Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge and Rise of the Resistance, guests sign up to be part of a virtual line at the front of the attraction (or store, in this case). Once your name is on the list, you can stroll through Disney Springs until you receive a text that it’s your turn to shop.

Virtual Queue

As we mentioned, reopening day was BUSY, but it seems as though crowds are winding down each day. Even on a weekend, we were able to walk right in to World of Disney with no wait.

Inside World of Disney

By the time we visited Marketplace Co-Op, the store was at capacity and a virtual queue was in place. BUT, it took less than five minutes to receive a text that we were cleared to return and shop.

Marketplace Co-Op Virtual Queue

We’ll keep you updated as crowd levels are continually in flux, but compared to opening day — Disney’s stores are much less busy today.

Check out where we spotted a Baby Yoda plush today in Disney Springs here!
