This year's Festival will run from January 18th-February 25th, and just like in it's previous years, it will celebrate visual arts with gallery displays, topiaries and demonstrations, culinary arts with food booths similar to those of Food and Wine Festival, and performing arts with live performances from not only local schools and performers, but also from famous Broadway performers, in spectacular concerts on The American Gardens Stage. This year's performers have just been announced, so let's check them out!:

Ears the News: November 4, 2018 Edition

Welcome to the latest edition of Ears the News

Brought to you by our friends at WDWMagic.com

World of Disney, the world's largest Disney retail store, has reopened in Disney Springs at Walt Disney World.

The store has been reopening in phases over the last few months, but the store saw its grand reveal with all sections of the store now fully open and showing off all of its magical touches on October 27th.

Several feature spaces throughout the store will change regularly, showcasing the newest and hottest Disney offerings of the season.

Complementing these displays are enchanted flourishes inspired by the history of Walt Disney Animation Studios and the “Nine Old Men,” the legendary animators who created classic films such as “Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs,” “Peter Pan” and “Fantasia.” For instance, ink jars suddenly swirl with color and animate artwork on the walls. Out of nowhere, blank pages fill with pencil sketches as if drawn by an invisible hand. Magical movie posters twinkle with pixie dust before coming to life. The store’s sales counters are inspired by the desks and furniture used by animators of generations past.

For the first time, World of Disney is now offering reusable bags, part of a company wide initiative to cut back on its use of plastics.

The all-new animated movie "Ralph Breaks the Internet" debuts in theaters November 21, 2018, and at the same time a new meet and greet will open in Epcot's Innoventions West.

Ralph and Vanellope von Schweetz will both be appearing to meet with guests.

Walt Disney Presents at Disney's Hollywood Studios began showing a sneak peek of the upcoming "Ralph Breaks the Internet" on Friday November 2, 2018.

The preview gives an advance look at a sequence of the new movie, which opens in theaters on November 21, 2018.

The sneak peek will play from November 2 to November 26, 2018.

The Epcot International Festival of the Arts at Walt Disney World Resort will begin January 18, 2019, and will continue for 39 days through February 25, 2019.

Disney on Broadway Concert Series expands to seven days a week during the festival in 2019. Each week, different pairs of Disney on Broadway stars will take the America Gardens Theatre stage to sing favorite songs from award-winning Disney on Broadway productions.

The lineup will rotate regularly, featuring music from shows such as “The Lion King,” “Frozen” and “Beauty and the Beast.” Performers this year include:
