Kristoff and Olaf from Disney’s hit animated film “Frozen” will host the inaugural “Frozen” Games at Disney’s Blizzard Beach Water Park this summer.

Starting May 27 and running through Aug. 21, “Frozen” friends will invite guests visiting Blizzard Beach to join Team Kristoff or Team Olaf each day to participate in a variety of winter-themed activities including:

• Ice Pail Relays where teams line up and pass pails of water to one another, trying to be the first to fill a container at the end.
• A “Snowball” Toss where pairs compete in a snow-themed water balloon toss.
• Ski Pole Limbo, a snowy twist on traditional limbo—using a ski pole as the limbo bar!
• Slide Races that allow teams to race down one of the water slides at Blizzard Beach.

Olaf and Kristoff will be on hand, appearing on the Observation Deck near Summit Plummet to take part in the opening and closing ceremonies, and giving updates on their teams’ progress throughout the day.

The “Frozen” Games will be an all-day event that guests can sign up for when they arrive at the park entrance. All activities are included with regular admission to Blizzard Beach.

On May 14th, you are invited to race around Epcot and the nearby resorts in MouseAdventure Silly Symphonies!

MouseAdventure is a quest-based event at the Disney Parks, and is produced by Third Gate Games. It’s part scavenger hunt and part road-rally, testing your knowledge of Disney theme parks, including minutia you may never have noticed before. If you’re ever played Goofy’s Mystery Tour at Walt Disney World, you will enjoy the challenge of MouseAdventure, and your team won’t have to be tethered together!

The recent MouseAdventure in Wonderland event at Disneyland Resort drew over 500 competitors, and challenged teams to solve a series of quests at Disneyland Park in California.

MouseAdventure Silly Symphonies will send teams through the Epcot Resorts in the morning, followed by challenges in Epcot Park in the afternoon. You can explore the “Flowers and Trees,” “Birds in Springtime,” and “Bugs in Love” at the Epcot International Flower & Garden Festival with MouseAdventure.

Starting April 10th, a series of very important upgrades will be made to your FastPass+ experience at Walt Disney World.

After booking their initial 1-to-3 FastPass+ reservations (you will now have the option to book anywhere between one and three, not forced to pick 3 initially), guests will now be able to book an additional and  even further FP+ reservations through the MyDisneyExperience app. These can be made one at a time, so once you finish your initial reservations that were made in advance, then you may book another. With every additional FP+, you are able to just book one at a time and only book another once the previous are completed (as the system works now, but you will be able to book additional FastPass+ yourself through the mobile app or website, and book for another park if you plan to switch).

With the upgraded system, guests will be able to choose an attraction and time for the attraction simultaneously, instead of simply hoping that a time they wanted would be suggested after making their three initial attraction choices. This should allow guests to better customize their daily plans to their liking.

Other new features include the ability to remove individual guests from a FastPass+ reservation and the ability to cancel a single FastPass+ attraction reservation instead of all of them.

With these changes implemented, the Quick Picks FP+ option will be removed.

Guests will see significant changes to the look of the app (and kiosk interface) on April 10th, 2016, but larger changes that will make the app look and function more like the new official Disneyland Resort app are still expected at a later date.
