Our very first Disney Hour Express livestream didn’t go exactly as planned thanks to some early audio glitches, but the second half of the show is packed with Disney magic and news you don’t want to miss. We share tips for first-time Disney visitors, including how to avoid feeling overwhelmed and why meal planning makes such a big difference. We dive into Mickey’s Not-So-Scary Halloween Party 2025, from canceled parades and rare character sightings to spooky snacks and a rain-soaked night that changed the entire event. We cover the big Hollywood Studios update with the closure of Animation Courtyard and what Disney is planning for 2026. We also talk through the full EPCOT Candlelight Processional 2025 narrator lineup featuring Jennifer Garner, Brendan Fraser, Henry Winkler, and more. On top of that, we discuss the latest Disney+ price hike and what it means for families, plus the new plans for the former Star Wars Galactic Starcruiser site.

Join Rob and the Disney Hour Express team for fun, family-friendly conversations, up-to-date Disney World news, and stories from the parks that keep you connected to the magic.
