Hello from a beautiful Fall day here at EPCOT! We were happy to take advantage of the beautiful weather and stroll around World Showcase, finding all of the fun, new things here at the park. Let’s get started!
A new addition to the colorful ticket booths caught our eye today as we entered the park. The new EPCOT logo has been painted onto the side of each ticket booth at the entrance to the park. We love the new look!
Moving into the park, we checked in at The Seas Pavilion and found the manatees having their breakfast.
We also found divers cleaning the coral in the dolphin tank. It’s fascinating watching them work with brushes sometimes smaller than the palm of your hand to take care of these formations.
We found a change in merchandise offerings at this Festival Market near Port of Entry in World Showcase. Until recently, this booth had International Flower & Garden Festival 2020 merchandise for sale, but that has been cleared out to make room for returning vendor, Rinse. Handmade with all natural ingredients and essential oils, this body and home care products vendor will be here until the end of the year.
While change can be good, sometimes it’s nice to be able to return to what you know and love. Magners Pear Cider has returned to Rose & Crown at both the indoor and outdoor locations. They were serving Original Sin Cider for a brief time while they were waiting for a shipment of Magners, but Original Sin Cider is now off the menu. For those who enjoyed it during its brief stint here, you can still find it at the Waffles Food & Wine booth on the weekends.
We went to Mouse Gear to check out the latest merchandise and found some new things to show you. The first thing was this grey and dusty rose Spirit Jersey-inspired lounge wear set. With a sweater, two long sleeve shirts, and a pair of joggers rounding out the line, we think they make the perfect cozy outfit for curling up and watching your favorite Disney movie. For more pictures and information on the full line, see our article here.
We found two new additions to the classic sweatshirt line today. The first new design was this light pink sweatshirt featuring Minnie Mouse in her flouncy polka dot skirt.
The second new addition was this classic Pizza Planet design on a red background. Both were found at Mouse Gear and retail for $52.99.
At the Annual Passholder Pop-Up Shop in the Germany Pavilion we found new World Showcase merchandise on sale, including this Beatles merchandise from the United Kingdom Pavilion.
We also found this Christmas Mickey magnet MagicBand for $29.99.
Rounding out the collection of the t-shirt and magnet we found here a few days ago in this design, we found a phone case featuring the “Merry & Bright” castle Passholder design for $34.99.
Our favorite find of the day was these magnificent pizza ears at the Italy Pavilion. Just look at the toppings, all sewn on and 3-D!
We had a wonderful day here at EPCOT, and we hope you enjoyed coming along with us. Have a magical day!
