In January 2008, Disney changed the names of one of their major theme parks from MGM Studios to Hollywood Studios.

Celebrating the diverse world of show business, the Hollywood Studio is a lot of fun for the entire family. From little children who love the Disney Channel to seniors who long for the days of James Cagney, Hollywood Studios has something for everyone. If you have young boys they are going to love two stunt shows, two big thrill rides, and the power rangers marching through the park.

Hollywood Studios is a bit smaller in size to that of its big brother Magic Kingdom. But, it still offers a myriad of attractions which cater to all ages. Before you start you planning your day for Hollywood Studios, might we suggest first reading the overview for Hollywood Studios and watching the short video that is playing above. This video will give you and your family a great feel for the theme park, so you will know exactly what to expect in touring this facility. Hollywood Studios is quite diverse. To assist you we have  compiled a guide to the Hollywood Studios attractions for you. In this info, we have listed all the attractions with a short description and the age groups that the attraction is targeting.

Special Money Saving Tip - At Hollywood Studios, there are a number of shops tempting you and your kids to purchase souvenirs. A suggestion might be to tell the young ones that they can look at all that there is to offer and at the end of your trip, you will purchase for them their one keepsake. By buying them one souvenir at the end of your trip you will save yourself quite a bit of money, as compared to buying them one souvenir everyday.

Hollywood Studios does not have nearly the dining options offered at Magic Kingdom or EPCOT, but a good idea is to check out what kind of food you desire. Most guests who spend the day at Hollywood Studios leave before dinner and save themselves considerable money using other meal options. If you so decide to eat dinner at the park, might we recommend eating at 50's Prime Time Café. This restaurant has been featured on the Food Network as one of the best places to eat comfort food.

Hollywood Studios has a lot of unique history which is always fun to read. Did you know at one time all the Disney Imaginers worked out of the old MGM studios theme park before the operation was moved back to Anaheim, CA. We have also included this fun fact along with many other for you to read as well as a list of attractions which have changed over the years. These quick little tidbits are always neat to read prior to your actual visit the theme park
