Welcome back, DFB friends! We’re here with another What’s New at Disney’s Hollywood Studios!

Disney’s Hollywood Studios

And, we’ve got plenty of updates to share with you! So, what are you waiting for? Let’s dive right on in!

Disney’s Hollywood Studios Food Update

Trolley Car Cafe

Now that Princess Week is here, there are so many treats around the parks (and, of course, we’ve been snacking our way through all of them). And, the Merida Cupcake has returned once again over at the Trolley Car Cafe in honor of the celebration!

Your destiny lies within you!

The Merida Cupcake is made with chocolate cake, caramel filling, and green and orange vanilla-flavored buttercream, gold crisp pearls, and a chocolate arrow on top.

Carmel filling… YUM!

While the chocolate and caramel combo was simple, the cupcake was totally satisfying with its rich and sweet flavors! While you’re making your way around Disney’s Hollywood Studios, you can find snag the Merida Cupcake for yourself for $5.49.

Hollywood Scoops and Sunshine Day Bar

Halloween treats have arrived around the parks, and we couldn’t be happier! While we already tried LOTS of them in Disney’s Hollywood Studios, we noticed that the Candy Corn Shake had a placard at Hollywood Scoops for $9.49

Tune-In Lounge

Whenever we’ve visited the 50’s Prime Time Café recently, we’ve been missing the sister Tune-in Lounge bar. But, the good news is that it’s now OPEN with some major changes, though!

Tune-In!!

There used to be couches and bar seating in the area, but they have since been removed at this time. Plus, all the drinks are being served in plastic cups right now!

Inside the Tune-In Lounge!

Specialty cocktails that fans love are available once again, like Dad’s Electric Lemonade and Magical Star Cocktail

Cocktails!

…along with wine and beer options!

Wine and Beer!

But, we helped ourselves to an Old Fashioned with Maker’s Mark to fit the vibe of the ’50s aesthetic!

Disney’s Hollywood Studios Entertainment Update

Rise of the Resistance

We’ve seen Boarding Passes for Rise of the Resistance continue to be available through the late afternoon recently. And, when we were in the park, we noticed they didn’t fully get taken up until around 4PM! However, you can still only ride the attraction once per day.

Rise of the Resistance

Once we were on the attraction, we noticed that Kylo Ren was missing from his big finale scene (maybe he actually got sucked out of his ship?? 😉).
