Everglazed Donuts & Cold Brew Coming Soon to Disney Springs
If you follow @DisneySprings on social media, you probably saw we shared a sneak peek at a few of the delicious donuts that will soon be baking at Everglazed Donuts & Cold Brew. (I’m already planning my Instagram photos!) These beauties are over-the-top and will only add to the amazing variety of sweet spots you can find on property. Today I’m thrilled to share a rendering of the specialty food and beverage location opening soon at Disney Springs West Side.
Everglazed Donuts & Cold Brew will be located adjacent to Splitsville and near the west entrance and exit of the Orange Parking Garage. The overall design of this sweet spot will have a unique spin on a classic donut shop featuring graphic pops of color, iconic signage, and a beautiful outdoor seating area in the “donut garden.” Before guests enter the venue, they may catch a glimpse of a culinary experience unfolding through the windows of the exposed kitchen where hot and fresh donuts will bake daily.
“We like to say our little oasis of indulgences is going to be where ‘Happiness is Glazed Daily,’” says Mark Gibson, co-owner of Everglazed. “The menu will be full of sweet surprises and a unique spot for guests wanting a quick treat, cold brew or nitro-infused chilled coffee.” Everglazed will specialize in hand-crafted donuts featuring mouthwatering yeast and cake donuts with an assortment of cold brew lattes and coffee cocktails and a few sweet-yet-savory sandwich bites.
“The humble donut has truly become a global phenomenon. The fried circle of dough is a simple concoction with the ability to showcase chef-inspired flavors and toppings,” says Guy Revelle, co-owner of Everglazed. “We can’t wait to offer guests at Disney Springs our robust menu of sweet delights, but you are officially warned: We spoke to your diet – and it’s taking some time off when we open our doors.” Keep an eye on the Disney Parks Blog and be sure to follow @disneysprings and @everglazed_fl for more future news and delicious updates!

The Show Goes On! Cirque du Soleil & Disney Announce Ticket On-Sale Date for Drawn to Life at Disney Springs
The iconic white tent theater at Disney Springs is buzzing with activity once again as Cirque du Soleil artists are returning to the stage to train and rehearse for a spectacular new show.
Drawn to Life presented by Cirque du Soleil & Disney is scheduled to open on Nov. 18, 2021. Tickets will go on sale Aug. 20 to the general public.
Drawn to Life is a thrilling collaboration between Cirque du Soleil, Walt Disney Animation Studios and Walt Disney Imagineering. At its core, the show is about the love between a father and a daughter with a story drawing inspiration from Disney’s 100-year heritage of animation. The family-friendly show brings timeless Disney stories and characters to life in an unforgettable way through the use of innovative design, acrobatic performances, dazzling choreography, musical scores, brand-new animation lovingly created by Disney Animation artists, and some extra touches of Disney magic.
Originally scheduled to debut in spring 2020, Drawn to Life was in its final rehearsals when the pandemic brought live theater performances to a halt. While waiting to return to the stage, artists stayed in shape by training at home or at local facilities. Now, the intermission is over and being back in the theater together is a dream come true for the cast and crew!

Behind the Scenes: Animation and Acrobatics Blend Together to Create a Unique Story in Drawn to Life Presented by Cirque du Soleil and Disney
We’re less than one month away from the Nov. 18 grand opening of Drawn to Life presented by Cirque du Soleil and Disney, and the excitement is building both inside and outside the iconic white theatre at Disney Springs. Today we’re sharing a new behind-the-scenes video where you can learn more about the inspiration and artistry behind this first theatrical collaboration between three creative icons: Cirque du Soleil, Walt Disney Animation Studios and Walt Disney Imagineering.
Drawn to Life celebrates Disney’s extraordinary legacy in the art of animation, from the earliest pencil sketches to the feature films of today. The classic characters and moments from Disney Animation are reinterpreted through Cirque du Soleil’s innovative design, acrobatic performances, dazzling choreography and creative costuming alongside an original score inspired by timeless Disney music.

Behind the Scenes: Drawn to Life Features Original Musical Score Sprinkled with Disney Animation Themes
We’re only days away from the Nov. 18 grand opening of Drawn to Life presented by Cirque du Soleil and Disney. Behind the scenes, artists and technical crews are working around the clock to make sure everything is ready for the show’s world premiere.
Today we’re sharing a new video of what you will hear, but not necessarily see, during each live theatrical performance. Benoit Jutras, the world-famous musical composer whose projects include the beloved La Nouba soundtrack, returned to create the musical score.
With a small but immensely talented group of musicians performing from a space elevated high in the wings, the music takes audience members on a nostalgic journey back to their own childhood with Disney Animation themes sprinkled along the way.
Drawn to Life is the first theatrical collaboration between three entertainment icons: Cirque du Soleil, Walt Disney Animation Studios and Walt Disney Imagineering. The show celebrates Disney’s extraordinary legacy in the art of animation reinterpreted through Cirque du Soleil’s innovative design, acrobatic performances, dazzling choreography and creative costuming.

Meta Quest Virtual Reality Experience featuring ILMxLAB’s Star Wars: Tales from the Galaxy’s Edge Coming to Disney Springs
Bright suns travelers! I have some out-of-this-galaxy news to share about a limited-time offering coming to Disney Springs. Meta Quest, ILMxLAB – Lucasfilm’s award-winning immersive entertainment studio – and Disney Parks are excited to continue their collaboration by bringing the Meta Quest 2 preview of Star Wars: Tales from the Galaxy’s Edge to Disney Springs West Side from May 2 through July 21.
The hands-on preview will showcase a short version of ILMxLAB’s virtual reality experience Star Wars: Tales from the Galaxy’s Edge, which expands the world of Batuu like never before! Once inside the Quest 2 headset, you’ll be immersed within sweeping 360 views of the Star Wars galaxy. The adventure takes place on the outskirts of Black Spire Outpost on the planet of Batuu, which you may be familiar with from Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge, the immersive epic lands at Disneyland Resort in California and Walt Disney World Resort in Florida.
The story features both new and iconic characters from the Star Wars galaxy. Gameplay was designed for a variety of players – from Star Wars fans to VR gamers – at home on Quest 2. In Part 1 of this action-adventure experience, you take on the role of a droid repair technician operating near the Outer Rim. When a group of pirates attack and you crash on Batuu, you’ll discover that anyone in the galaxy can become a hero. Then, continue your epic journey with Star Wars: Tales from the Galaxy’s Edge-Last Call, the recently-released expansion. This new add-on gives you the opportunity to expand your virtual reality adventures on the Outer Rim and experience more eras in the Star Wars galaxy.
Fans who complete the experience will also receive giveaways and have the ability to purchase a Meta Quest 2 onsite. Those who attend on May 4 can receive an exclusive poster featuring the Guavian Death Gang cell operating on Batuu and their merciless leader, Tara Rashin.
For a limited time, this complimentary preview experience will be offered daily, noon – 10 p.m., at Disney Springs West Side. Reservations may be available. A Meta Quest staff member will assist you on-site with reserving a time to come back to participate or direct you to queue inside the building, based on availability. Visit DisneySprings.com/metaquest for more information.
De toute façon, cette action (dont la participation est entièrement gratuite) n'a pas d'autre vocation que de promouvoir le casque de réalité virtuelle Meta Quest 2 à Disney Springs pendant une durée limitée de onze semaines.

C'est surtout depuis la réouverture qu'il y a pas mal d'offres, il y avait déja une offre de repas+show depuis quelques mois, pour 2023 ils ont inclus les billets dans l'offre UK/IE
J'ai surtout l'impression que dernièrement la plupart des offres de "divertissement" payantes à Disney Springs se plantent, The Void n'a pas tenu, NBA Experience a été un énorme bide et là Le Cirque du Soleil, visiblement le guest n'a plus de thune à dépenser en supplément
Vus les tarifs pratiqués, ça ne m'étonne qu'à moitié. J'y serais bien allé lors de notre séjour en avril dernier mais nous avions déjà bcp de restaurant TD assez chers qui plus est (parfois plus de 250$ pour 2, taxes et tip compris) donc on a fait des choix.
J'espère que ce spectacle restera, j'ai bien l'intention de voir Drawn to Life lors de mon séjour à l'été 2023. Une représentation du Cirque du soleil, c'est toujours un évènement.
