WDW Magazine August 2017: Value Resorts at WDW | Page 114

IllumiNations was out of this world! I’ve never seen so many fireworks in my life! If you are hanging out at Disney’s Hollywood Studios on July 4th, you were able to catch “Disney Movie Magic” at 9:00pm and “Star Wars: A Galactic Spectacular” at 9:30pm. On July 17th, the 14th Disney Vacation Club Resort opened Copper Creek Villas & Cabins at Disney’s Wilderness Lodge. The villas at this resort are stunning! It’s a great addition to the already incredible rustic resort. If you’re really looking for a vacation getaway that’s also close to the action of Walt Disney World, you might want to check them out. If the wilderness isn’t your style, Disney recently announced the 15th DVC that’s coming next. It’s Disney’s Riviera Resort. It will include a rooftop restaurant where you will be able to see the fireworks from both Epcot and Disney’s Hollywood Studios. Disney Vacation Club members currently have a limited-time deal from Disney. Now through September 30th, members get 30% off (instead of the usual 10%) at select table-service restaurants. Dining must take place before 6:30pm or after 8:30pm. Some of the restaurants include, Jiko- The Cooking Place, Citricos, The Wave, and Boatwright’s Dining Hall. It looks like a great way to sample some new cuisine and save a lot too! Disney has created a way for you to see what kind of Magic Shots are being offered through PhotoPass. All you need to do is go to the Disney PhotoPass Service Facebook page, go to photos and then albums, and you can see what Magic Shots are currently found in each park, and where they are located. Don’t forget, closures are subject to change without notice. If you have your heart set on an attraction, be sure to check before you go. Also, check the parks for changes the day of your arrival.
