It’s been a news-filled day in the world of Disney!

We got the dates for this year’s EPCOT Food & Wine Festival, learned the dates AND pricing information for Mickey’s Not-So-Scary Halloween Party this year, but that’s not all — now we know that Magic Kingdom‘s newest dining spot will be OPEN during the Halloween party this year!
UPDATE: Shortly after publishing, Disney updated the website to remove the language about Mickey’s Not-So-Scary Halloween Party. We’ll keep an eye on a potential official opening date for the Beak and Barrel!
On Disney World’s website, we just found a MASSIVE clue for when Magic Kingdom’s newest dining spot, The Beak and Barrel, may open in the park. Disney now lists that it will be open during Mickey’s Not-So-Scary Halloween Party this year, stating that beginning June 12th, guests staying at Disney World hotels can book their reservations during the party, and all other guests can book beginning June 16th.

However, it goes on to explicitly state that, dining here will be “offered on select nights August 15th to October 31st, 2025,” leading us to believe that it’s POSSIBLE that the opening date for the lounge as a whole could be August 15th!

We’re super curious to see if this is the case, and you know we’ll be keeping a close eye out for all the latest details to share them with you ASAP!
