It’s happening, folks. It’s time for Spring Break in Disney World, which means big crowds, long lines, and lots to see and do.
Tower of Terror has seen some LONG wait times lately!
On a happier note, there are some fun new updates from Disney’s Hollywood Studios! So if you’re visiting and wanting to escape the crowds by skipping a long standby line or by doing some shopping for a PRICEY pin set, here’s what you might find in Hollywood Studios.

Disney added a Lightning Lane for Red Carpet Dreams, where you can meet Sorcerer Mickey and Minnie in a glamourous dress! This experience is now included in your purchase of Genie+, which is $15 per person per day in Disney World.
