Your Guide to Autumn at Walt Disney World Resort
While many people love summer, we’re already in the mood for autumn. The cooler weather in Florida, the spooky Halloween decorations, and the thought of Thanksgiving have us ready for the fall season at Disney World.
Fall Décor Around the Resort
From the moment you arrive at Walt Disney World, festive touches are all around. Pumpkins, wreaths, garlands, and more bring cozy color to parks and resorts alike. Even a stroll through our resort hotels feels like stepping into a seasonal celebration!
It isn’t really Florida fall until you step onto Main Street, U.S.A. to see it dressed up in autumnal charm. This year, Magic Kingdom is flaunting some new russet adornments for all to enjoy. Red, yellow, and orange decor has sprouted around every corner in Fantasyland and Frontierland, and they are gourd-geous!
Over in Storybook Circus, new décor has tumbled into place to spread autumn cheer across the big top, featuring the cutest pumpkins inspired by a flying elephant and his pint-sized ringleader.
Jock Lindsey’s Halloween Hangar Bar at Disney Springs
A new fang-tastic fright has flown into Disney Springs. Step into a nostalgic Halloween party from decades past at Jock Lindsey’s Hangar Bar, with new Halloween décor, sinister sips, and eerie eats you won’t want to miss now through November 4. The dish haunting me – in the best way – is the Alien Invader Sliders. They bring together the perfect combination of cheddar-chive biscuits and Nashville hot fried chicken.
EPCOT International Food & Wine Festival
What says fall more than an array of sweet and savory sips and bites? A trip to the International Food & Wine Festival at EPCOT is a must during the fall season! Running until November 22, 2025, this festival serves delectable dishes and specialty sips inspired by countries and cultures around the world. This year, there are more than 90 brand-new food and beverage items to try! The live music, global marketplaces, and specialty merch make it more than just a food festival – it’s become a fall tradition for many!
In between discovering your next favorite tastes and treats, another fall-tastic way to spend your day at EPCOT is by embarking on Pluto’s Pumpkin Pursuit – a festive scavenger hunt to find hidden decorative pumpkins inspired by your favorite Disney characters. Once you’ve found them all, a spooky festival keepsake awaits you! (Available while supplies last.)
Fall into Thrills at Disney’s Hollywood Studios
Hollywood Studios is the prime place to pay homage to the fall-iday season! First, dare to enter the creaking service elevator on The Twilight Zone Tower of Terror… then, conquer your fear of being face to face with foes at “Disney Villains: Unfairly Ever After.” With fall bringing cooler weather, Batuu in Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge is the perfect place for Star Warsfans to enjoy the atmospheric area at night!
Hungry for a festive dining experience? You can snack on eerie-sistable food with Minnie Mouse at Minnie’s Halloween Dine at Hollywood and Vine as she’s dressed in her Halloween best for breakfast, lunch and dinner!
However you choose to spend your day, there are plenty of ways to have the best fall day ever at Hollywood Studios.
Explore the Wild at Disney’s Animal Kingdom
Fall is the purr-fect time to explore Disney’s Animal Kingdom Theme Park and Maharajah Jungle Trek is a must-visit on your autumn adventure! Be sure to stroll the scenic paved trails, where you might spot Basko, our nearly one-year-old Sumatran tiger, prowling through his habitat. While on the trails, keep your eyes peeled, as you may just see animals snacking on some of their favorite seasonal treats.
Continue your journey and take a ride through the savanna on Kilimanjaro Safaris, which gives you an incredible opportunity to spot over 30 species of animals! Or join Nick and Judy at The Tree of Life Theater to catch the brand new “Zootopia: Better Zoogether” 4-D show once it opens on November 7!
Whether you’re trekking through trails, spotting wildlife, or discovering the rest of Disney’s Animal Kingdom, the fall is a season of wonder, nature and thrill!
