Get ready to board a fully immersive pirate tavern, where all mates, pirates, scallywags, and buccaneers are welcome.

The Beak and Barrel Backstory

No Disney eatery would be complete without a good backstory, and The Beak and Barrel is no different. So let’s dive into the story of how this new tavern is going to be joining Adventureland.

The Beak and Barrel is owned by Captain Meridian “Merry” Goldwyn, accompanied by her first mate Rummy. The two of them make a legendary pair of rumrunners, who have traveled around the world discovering the very best food and drinks from the seven seas.

Meet Rummy

First mate of Captain Meridian “Merry” Goldwyn, owner of The Beak and Barrel.

Concept Art released by Disney

Rummy is Merry’s most trusted friend and first mate. Though very talkative, he does an excellent job as the tavern’s quartermaster. He ensures that guests enjoy their time and can often be found telling stories of when Rummy and Merry were sailing the seas.

He can primarily be found relaxing above the bar, Rummy still takes his job very seriously and ensures that the tavern is well.

Fun Fact: Some true Disney World Pirates of the Caribbean fans might notice that Rummy looks a lot like Barker Bird that sat at the entrance of Pirates of the Caribbean. Barker Bird left his post a while ago and hasn’t been seen since.

Additionally, there is an Enchanted Rum Bottle found at the bar. The bottle was a gift from the enchantress Tia Dalma to Captain Meridian “Merry” Goldwyn.

Park the Plot: Does enchantress Tia Dalma sound familiar? She was first introduced in the second Pirates of the Caribbean film, Dead Man’s Chest. Tia Dalma is the human form of the sea goddess Calypso who was the love of Davy Jones.

In the Captain’s Quarters there are five miniature ships in glass bottles mounted above the fireplace. Each bottle represents a pirate from the different parts of the world (possibly ships we’ve already been introduced to) coming together to defeat the tyranny.

The Captains Quarters have also been rumored to once be the living quarters of a great Spanish Comandante.

What To Expect At The Beak and Barrel

The Beak and Barrel is set to have savory sips, and delicious bites that will send your taste buds on an adventure! Not to mention all of the decor around the tavern that has so much happening there is always something to discover.

There are two primary areas within The Beak and Barrel; The Mess, and Captains’ Quarters.

The Mess is the main central space for guests to meet and join, featuring long tables so ‘pirates’ can join together and share stories.

Concept Art released by Disney

The bar within The Mess, is easily identifiable with its’ skull-shaped stern in the middle. At the bar, you might see Rummy sitting above ensuring that everything is in ship-shape. Or you might find Rummy along the bar’s edge giving toasts to pirates, or sharing stories of him and Merry sailing the seven seas.

The Captains’ Quarters continues the pirate vibe with slashed curtains and paintings where a pirate fight probably broke out. The main ‘attraction’ in this room is the miniature ships in a bottle.

If you look closely you might be able to see these ships come to life in battle.

Captains Quarters

Additional space for guests to enjoy, and see the miniature ships in bottles mounted above the fireplace.

Closing The Gates On: The Beak and Barrel

Exciting news that a new themed dining experience is going to be arriving at Disney World. Get ready for a full Pirates of the Caribbean themed tavern for all ages to enjoy. This new eatery is going to be called The Beak and Barrel.

Enjoy a fully immersive experience as you enter into The Beak and Barrel. Raise a glass with Rummy as he shares tales of his time out at sea. Delight in savory sips and delicious bites harnessing flavors from all over the pirate world.

The Beak and Barrel comes with it’s own fun backstory, and will be available later this year in Adventureland at Magic Kingdom for you to enjoy.

Unfortunately, these are all of the details that we really know about this new dining experience. Be sure to save this post, and check back frequently as it will be updated with more details as it gets released.

Foodie Guide to Food & Wine Marketplaces

During the Disney California Adventure Food & Wine festival, you can find food throughout the whole park at various marketplaces. Each marketplace has its own theme, and food to match the theme.

Pro-Tip: Some marketplaces are more popular than others and often have a long line to order the food. If you want to ‘skip’ the line, then order the food at a different marketplace, and then go to the pick up window of the marketplace that is offering the food item you wish. This is a little way to save some time.

All of these marketplaces will be available from February 28, 2025 until April 21, 2025. A few of them will have some food items available a bit longer (which will be noted).

Additionally, not all of the food items are available for the Sip & Savor Pass (more on the Sip & Savor Pass further down).

Now without further ado, let’s look at the different marketplaces and what each one has to offer!

DCA Food & Wine Food: Best Kid Menu Items

Now some of the restaurants around DCA do have some Food & Wine Festival kid menu items, however not all of them do. And we don’t want to forget about the little ones during the trip. So here are some items that are sure to have the little ones asking for more.

California Craft Brews

• Lemon Pepper Wings – served with garlic ranch Ⓝ Ⓢ

LA Style

• Western BBQ Burger Bao – with sweet barbecue sauce, Nueske’s Applewood Smoked Bacon, and crispy onions Ⓝ Ⓢ

Sonoma Terrace

• Birria Mac & Cheese – served with onion-cilantro sauce and tortilla crunch Ⓝ Ⓢ

Clarabelle’s Hand-Scooped Ice Cream 

• Strawberry Shortcake – Angel food cake, vanilla ice cream, strawberry syrup, whipped topping, and fresh strawberries Ⓝ Ⓢ

Golden Dreams

• Cherry Cobbler Pot de Crème – Vanilla custard, cherry filling, and oat crumble Ⓟ Ⓝ Ⓢ

DCA Food & Wine Sip and Savor Pass

With previous events, Disney has offered a Sip & Savor Pass. A Sip & Savor Pass is a pass offered during select Disneyland events that allows you to pay a flat rate for a certain number of vouchers valid for certain dishes.

The DCA Food & Wine Sip & Savor Pass this year (2025) offers a barcode for eight digital vouchers to try various items.

Now, if you’re thinking, “Red, that’s a lot of vouchers; there is no way I’m gonna use all of those,” Let me say that often, the portions when purchasing with the voucher are a bit smaller than normal, more like a sample size.

Additionally, the Sip & Savor Pass isn’t limited to just one person, so if you go with friends, you can all share a Sip & Savor Pass rather than everyone purchasing their own! This is an excellent way for everyone to save some money, too!

But if that seems too much, they offer a 4-voucher Sip & Savor Pass if that seems more doable for you.

DCA Food & Wine Festival Bookable Experiences

If the Food & Wine Festival sounds like something you want to explore, don’t worry—exceptional bookable experiences are only available during the festival!

These experiences are limited, so making a reservation is strongly encouraged.

So, for the ultimate foodies, if you’re looking to enhance your knowledge, you can book two different experiences.

Cocktails at Sonoma Terrace, hosted by CORKCICLE, where you can watch seminars highlighting various ciders, beers, and wine tasting. Or, if you’re more into pairings, you can check out Carthay Circle Receptions.

If you’re looking for DCA Food & Wine Festival experiences that don’t require a park ticket and reservation, head to Disney’s Grand Californian Hotel & Spa. At GCH, you can enjoy a unique dining option called the Dinner and Scotch Event, which offers hors d’oeuvres, live music, and a four-course dinner paired with scotches.

Additionally, the popular A Walk On The Silverado Trail will return to GCH. Held at the Mariposa Pool Deck, it offers delicious culinary dishes paired perfectly with specialty wine.

Over at The Disneyland Hotel, there are mixology classes that you can take at Trader Sam’s Enchanted Tiki Bar. Where you can learn to make some of the popular drinks at Trader Sam’s!

Again, these experiences are limited in space, so be sure to book your experience today so you don’t miss out.

Does Disneyland do anything special for Valentine’s Day?

Yes! Disneyland hosts an After Dark event called Sweetheart’s Nite. It is a limited, separate ticketed event, that sells out quickly.

And of course, like listed above, Disneyland does bring in a special limited-time menu filled with treats for guests to enjoy.

Is Valentine’s Day crowded at Disneyland?

While holidays in the fall tend to bring big crowds to Disneyland, Valentine’s Day doesn’t have as big of an impact on crowds.

This year, 2025, Valentine’s Day is on a Friday, which means that there is a higher chance of more crowds than previous years when the holiday landed in the middle of the week.

Closing The Gates On: Valentine’s Day at Disneyland

Spending Valentine’s Day at Disneyland is a magical way to spend the holiday. Whether you are celebrating friendship, family, or partnership, there is something for everyone at Disneyland.

Disneyland offers a wide variety of speciality menu items during the beginning of February to help celebrate. These special menu items are found all throughout the Disneyland Resort including, Disneyland Park, Disney California Adventure Park, Downtown Disney, and the Disneyland Resort Hotels.

Every year Disney works hard to create new dishes to add to these special menus and this year is no different. With lots of new things to try this year, you aren’t going to want to miss these treats.

Worried about the crowds at Disneyland during Valentine’s day? Don’t worry, some of these treats will be available during the whole month of February, while others are offered from the start of the month until February 16th!

Increasing ticket prices are never something you want to hear. And Disneyland, once again, has increased ticket prices. These ticket increases apply not just to general admission tickets but also to the Lightning Lane Multi Pass and Magic Key prices.

Now, before we start getting upset about the costs going up, let’s take a moment and think about everything that has changed around the Disneyland resort, as well as everything that’s going to change over the next few years.

Over the next few years we are going to see two new lands coming to the Disneyland Resort, as well as new attractions, shows, and parades. Additionally, Disneyland just did a major revamp of Tiana’s Bayou Adventure (formerly Splash Mountain), and Haunted Mansion.

And this doesn’t even cover all of the changes that are happening around the Downtown Disney District! So it’s no wonder that the ticket prices are going to go up to help cover the cost of all of this renovation.

In this post, we will review all ticket increases, from general admission to Magic Keys, and what you need to know if you purchased tickets before the increase.

Why Does Disneyland Increase Ticket Prices?

Every time there is a Disneyland ticket price increase, everyone asks ‘why.’ Don’t get me wrong, I don’t like them either.

However, I have seen a trend with them announcing a price increase shortly after Disneyland announces some way that they will add to the parks, whether with new attractions, characters, a new themed event, expansions, etc.

This year is no different. At the D23 event, Disney announced that it is going to get at least two new lands and two new attractions to Avengers Campus. This is on top of the 70th Anniversary celebration that will be taking place in 2025.

It is easy to get excited over all of the new things that are in the works for Disneyland but to build all of that; the money has to come from somewhere.

Disneyland Ticket Increases

Again, tickets prices are never something fun to hear. Especially when you’re close to going on a magical vacation!

However, it is important to note that this is becoming an annual announcement that Disneyland makes every October.

Previous year’s ticket increase dates:
– October 25, 2021: 6-8% increase
– October 11, 2022: 5-8% increase
– October 11, 2023: 6-8% increase

Followed by this year’s announcement, October 9, 2024, with a 6% increase.

This means that it is probably safe to say that ticket costs will increase by 6% every year.

If you don’t already know, Disneyland general admission tickets are done on a tiered system. Each tier is set, therefore depending on what day of the week, and what month you go to Disneyland, the ticket cost can be different.

Single-Day Single-Park Tickets

Currently, Disneyland has six different tiers of tickets. Of those six, only five showed a price increase, with the highest ticket increasing 6.5%. Remember, these are for single-day, single-park ticket prices.

The Six Tier Tickets Increase:

Tier 0 – $104
Tier 1 – $126
Tier 2 – $142
Tier 3 – $164
Tier 4 – $180
Tier 5 – $196
Tier 6 – $206

Now, unfortunately you cannot select the tier you pay when you go. The Tier is already pre-set from Disney. The higher tier tickets are typically set for days that Disney thinks is going to be peak days. Peak Days are typically for holidays (Halloween, Thanksgiving, Christmas, etc.), and busy Holiday weekends.

Multi-Day One-Park Tickets

No tickets were excluded from the ticket price increase. Multi-day tickets also saw a price increase. They start at a 2-Day, 1-Park per day and can go up to a 5-Day, 1-Park ticket. Most of these Multi-Day tickets went up 6.5%.

Here are the increases in Multi-Day tickets:

Multiday tickets saw similar hikes. Two-day, one-park tickets rose to $330 (from $310), while three-day tickets now cost $415 for single-park access (up from $390).

Disneyland Park Hopping Ticket Increase

The ticket increases just keep on rolling, even to the Park Hopping Ticket add-on that you can do.

Last year (2023), Disneyland changed how the Park hopper tickets worked. Pre-2023, if you wanted a park hopper ticket, you could just select that type of ticket, and it would be a flat rate of $60 per ticket, per day for park hopping.

Now, Disneyland charges different prices for park hopping, which now depends on the type of ticket that you get. So let’s break down how much it would be to add-on the park hopping option to your ticket.

It is important to note that the prices, are how much it would cost to add-on per ticket. This means that if you are a family of 4 and you are buying four adult tickets and add the park hopping; for 2 days, the tickets will start at $415, per person!

Magic Key Price Increase

That’s right. The cost of the tickets increased, as did the prices of the Magic Keys. And the increased cost of Magic Keys was significantly much more than the increase in ticket prices.

Magic Keys are not open for sale but only for renewal. In previous years, we will see the reopening of Magic Key sales after the increase in Magic Key prices. I just wanted to let you know that nothing has been announced so far.

Multi-Pass Lightning Lane Price Increase

Along with ticket prices increasing, Disneyland also announced that the base cost of the Multi-Pass Lightning Lane (previously called Genie+) will also be increasing.

Prior to the October 11 announcement, the base cost of Lightning Lane Multi-Pass started at $30, but increased depending upon the day.

For example, during my October trip (just before the price increase), we paid $36 per person per day for Lightning Lane Multi-Pass. During my December trip (a month after the price increase), we paid $36 per person for the Lightning Lane Multi-Pass.

The Lightning Lane Multi-Pass base cost is $32 with the increased prices. That is only a $2 increase in cost, but it can add up quickly. Additionally, that is the base price for the Lightning Lane Multi-Pass, meaning that it will be the cheapest.

For example, a family of four, this can be at least (at the bare minimum) a $8 increase in cost. That is pretty much the cost of 2 churros!! Personally, I’d rather spend the money on churros.

Quick Guide to Disneyland Price Increase

Okay, that was a lot of information, so let’s list it all out in an easy table view.

Disclaimer: Prices vary by day. The prices listed here are set to the base rate for each ticket. When you purchase tickets, they might cost more than the listed prices.

If you want to make the most of your money and only purchase one-day tickets for your vacation, I recommend reading my 1-day Disneyland Itinerary.

What If I Already Bought Disneyland Tickets?

Now, if you already had a Disney vacation planned prior to the October ticket price increase, you might be wondering what this means for you. The positive is that your vacation that is already booked, will not see the increase in price.

This means you got lucky and locked in the ‘old’ rates for tickets, so your vacation won’t cost you any more then you’ve already paid.

There will be no difference between you being locked in at the cheaper price and those who are paying for the higher-priced tickets.

What is the cheapest day of the week to go to Disneyland?

It is easy to say that any day other then the weekend is going to be cheaper. But it isn’t quite that simple.

Yes, weekends are going to be more expensive then other days, however Thursdays and Fridays are also some pretty pricey days depending on when it is. For example, if they fall on a holiday weekend, during spring break, or during summer months.

Summer will be more expensive than other times of the year, except for Halloween. Halloween is probably the most expensive time to visit the Disneyland Resort.

Are Disneyland tickets cheaper after a certain time?

One of the cheapest times to go to Disneyland is during the first few months of the new year. The holidays officially end in early January. After that, there isn’t much happening until February/March, when the Food & Wine Festival starts at Disney California Adventure Park.

Additionally, since Disneyland seems to be increasing ticket prices every October, I would highly recommend buying tickets earlier in the year, then in the fall. This will help you lock in the ‘cheaper’ rates, vs paying for tickets shortly after the price increases.

Closing The Gates On: Disneyland Increases Ticket Prices

Disneyland increased prices to a nearly every ticket that they sell, including their Magic Keys (their annual pass program). On average tickets saw a 6% increase in price. This might not sound like a lot, but when you look at the cost for the whole family to go, it is a lot.

Obviously, dealing with increased prices is never something anyone wants. But if something positive can come from this, it is that there will be a lot of new things joining the Disneyland Resort over the next few years.

With many plans for new attractions, lands, hotels, restaurants, and more, Disneyland is going to be putting the money to use.
