A Journey Around the World: Your Perfect Day at Epcot

Walt Disney dreamed of creating a future world, an Experimental Prototype Community of Tomorrow, before he passed. The spirit of Walt Disney's creative legacy lives on in what EPCOT has evolved to today, with its ever changing landscape, seasonal festivals, and rides. One thing that hasn’t changed since this park opened on October 1st, 1982, is the iconic Epcot ball, Spaceship Earth, towering into the sky, a symbol of innovation, togetherness,  and Walt Disney's creative vision. 


A Nostalgic Nod to Yesterday and Tomorrow

Experience the gentle wonders of fan favorite Living with the Land, where the beauty of nature and sustainable agriculture are presented during a leisurely boat ride. Or if you are feeling more mischievous, Journey into Imagination with Figment and let your imagination soar with this chaotic attraction, filled with experiments gone wrong, rooms that are hanging upside down, and one of Disney’s most beloved characters - Figment. If you really want a big adventure, big laughs, and even bigger heroes, Guardians of the Galaxy is the ride for you! With six possible songs at launch, the vibe is unique each time you ride it, but the thrill of whirling in the dark, chasing galactic enemies around planets and through portals, is enduring. 


The World Showcase: A Global Adventure

Epcot's World Showcase is a celebration of diverse cultures, bringing the magic of eleven countries to life. From the Aztec inspired architecture of Mexico to the tranquil bamboo gardens of Japan, each pavilion offers a unique and immersive experience. As you stroll through the cobblestone streets of each "World," you'll find yourself surrounded by authentic architecture, cultural performances, and Cast Members dressed in costumes that transport you across the globe. Don't forget to indulge in bite-sized snacks and beverages that capture the essence of each country – a true culinary journey for foodies and imbibers alike. There are many souvenirs and gifts that can only be found in these worlds, so be on the lookout for one-of-a-kind merchandise that you won’t be able to find online or in any other Disney parks, like the Canadian flag Mickey ears. 


Shopping Around the World

Explore Creations Shop for the latest Disney merchandise and exclusive Epcot-themed items. Head to Port of Entry for unique treasures inspired by your global journey. During Epcot's four major festivals – International Flower & Garden Festival, Epcot International Food & Wine Festival, Ecot International Festival of the Arts, and International Festival of the Holidays – discover seasonal offerings and limited-edition merchandise that make for perfect souvenirs and gifts.


Food, Drinks, and Meaningful Moments

The heart of planning your day at Epcot lies in savoring exquisite food, enjoying refreshing drinks, and creating meaningful memories with friends and family. Whether you're indulging in authentic cuisine from Italy, raising a toast in Germany, or delighting in the cultural performances in China, Epcot invites you to explore, taste, and connect with the world.

In Walt Disney's final creative effort, Epcot was envisioned as a place of innovation, inspiration, and unity. As you travel the park, take a moment to appreciate the legacy that has evolved into the Epcot we know and love today – a testament to the enduring magic of Walt Disney's imagination. So raise a glass and toast to a day filled with the extraordinary magic of Epcot! Cheers!
