Restaurant Marrakesh in the Morocco Pavilion at EPCOT has once again become a Passholder-exclusive lounge.

Annual Passholder Lounge

People stand in front of a large, tan stucco building with palm trees and arched doorways under bright sunlight.

Restaurant Marrakesh has not operated in five years. It has only opened for limited-time offerings, like the Passholder lounge. It housed the Passholder lounge during last year’s V.I.PASSHOLDER Summer Days.

Sign reading "Annual passholder lounge. Open daily 11am-7pm" on a textured, brown stucco wall.

The lounge is open daily from 11 a.m. to 7 p.m. Depending on how busy the lounge is, Passholders may have to wait in a virtual queue to enter. They must present their valid Annual Pass and photo ID.
