Welcome back, DFB friends! We’re here with another What’s New at Pop Century and Art of Animation Resorts!
We’ve got some merch, entertainment, and food updates for ya, so let’s dive right on in!
Pop Century Resort
Pop Century Entertainment Update
Christmas has been making everything merry and bright all over Disney World! And, over in the Pop Century Resort, lights and ornaments have been hung with care! Guests can check out the Christmas tree…
…wreaths, and garlands in the lobby and outside!
You can spot music notes, records…
…peace signs…
…and even some snowmen and elves to get in the rockin’ Christmas spirit!
Over at the resort gift shop, you can make your own Christmas wish with the Wish Tree!
All you have to do is write down a holiday wish you want to come true and hang it on the tree! Who knows what the season will bring??
We wished for everyone to have safe and happy holidays this year!!
On November 22nd from 1 PM until 3 PM, Pop Century is hosting Painting with a Pop! in the purple section of the Everything Pop Food Court. Families will be able to take a class led by a professional painting instructor for $35 per person! Maybe you can make your own homemade Christmas gift this year!
Pop Century Merchandise Update
The Skyliner Refillable Mug has soared into the Everything Pop Food Court! You can upgrade to the stainless steel mug from the Plastic Refillable Mug for only $10 more if you’re staying on property. If you’re just stopping by, you can still get the mug for $29.99 to keep your cold drinks cool for up to 12 hours and your hot drinks steamy for up to 4 hours.
In honor of Frozen 2‘s release (it’s finally here!!), the Frozen 2 Art Kit has traveled “Into the Unknown” and back into Pop Century!
The kit features stunning artwork with Elsa, Anna, Kristoff, Olaf, and Sven on both sides…
…and an entire array of art supplies on the inside! The Frozen 2 Art Kit includes an eraser, pencil sharpener, ruler, scissors…
…2 stencils, a sketch pad, 3 sticker sheets, 10 color pencils…
…16 markers, 16 crayons, and a pencil only for $24.99! It sounds like the perfect Christmas gift this year for your budding artists!
Pop Century is has released its own Holiday Pin for 2019! The front of the enamel pin features the resort’s logo…
…and can be spun around to show off Baloo and Mowgli on the back for $17.99!
Since Pop Century is a Skyliner resort, it’s not surprising that they have the Skyliner Pop Funko!
The adorable figure has Mickey waving at guests from the inside of a gondola for $39.99! (Hey, Mickey!! How ya doin’, pal?)
You can read all about the Skyliner Pop Funko here!
Pop Century Food Update
While you’ll have to watch Elsa walk on water (!!!) in the theaters, you can still have the Frozen 2 Wave Cupcake at Pop Century!
The chocolate cake is filled with chocolate ganache and topped with peppermint frosting, blue sugar crystals, and a white chocolate disc featuring Elsa and the Nokk. And, it’s GORGEOUS!
Check out our full review of the Frozen 2 Wave Cupcake here!
Art of Animation Resort
Art of Animation Entertainment Update
The snow glows white on the mountain tonight… and so does the WHITE Christmas tree at Art of Animation!
The tree features lights, ornaments, and artwork from different Disney films (like The Lion King!).
The wreaths around the lobby have the same design as the Christmas tree…
…and the garlands outside are even themed with the area guests are staying in! Can you guess what the seashells are for? 😉
Art of Animation Merchandise Update
The Skyliner Refillable Mug can also be found in the Landscape of Flavors at Art of Animation…
…as well as the Skyliner Pop Funko! Maybe you can take both of them with you on your next trip on the Skyliner!!
Art of Animation is joining in the Christmas spirit with their own Holiday Pin too! The enamel pin features the Art of Animation logo on the front…
…and Simba and Nala on the back for $17.99! We think this holiday pins would be super cute to add to your pin collection for Christmas!
