Between the work on the entrance, Future World West, the Play Pavilion, the Rose Walk, the Guardians of the Galaxy roller coaster, and Remy’s Ratatouille Adventure, work at Epcot has been busy with a capital B. And now, the next … Read more
The Odyssey building has been experiencing updates since early last year, but they have all been more interior updates. When it reopened on New Year’s Eve in 2018, we saw a clean and crisp modern look, but it had ultimately lost the touch of eighties nostalgia. As of today, it seems like the exterior of … Read more
With the beginning of the demolition of Leave a Legacy monoliths, Rose Walk under heavy refurbishment ahead of Food and Wine, and the general re-imagining of Epcot, International Gateway has been under construction for the longest at this point.

Changes keep occurring to Epcot’s entrance and today we got a glimpse of more of the construction going on behind the walls that extended to wrap around the existing fountain in the middle.

Here at Epcot, construction of the redesigned Rose Walk pathway between Future World and World Showcase continues to progress as the 2019 Epcot International Food & Wine Festival is just weeks from opening. And that’s it! (Just kidding… did you really think we’d just take pictures of a wall?) It seems quiet now, but work … Read more
Today we’re at Epcot checking out the progress on the construction of the upcoming Guardians of the Galaxy Coaster! The updates have definitely slowed and gotten less visually fun and interesting to look at since the main show building has been completely enclosed, but that just means that we’re closer to the opening of this … Read more
The end of an era has arrived at Epcot. The final group of Leave a Legacy monoliths will be removed from the park starting on Tuesday, August 6th, when construction walls will go up in the area. The final group is located on the eastern side of Spaceship Earth. (Or on the left side, as … Read more
The old tram drop-off at the entrance of Epcot has been getting a makeover, and we decided to check in on the progress since our last visit.

Welcome to another beautiful day at Epcot! Since the park is currently between festivals, this is the perfect time to visit.

Back in April, we showed you how there were some changes happening at Epcot’s International Gateway. As part of Disney’s strategy to improve all the park entrances, construction has been underway at this “back entrance” to Epcot’s World Showcase. With projects like this, you can always expect some changes to guest traffic patterns. Just last … Read more
Welcome to another beautiful Spring day and another WDWNT photo report, this time from Epcot. Let’s get started! One of my favorite things to do every time I hit up Epcot, is wander over in front of the Wonders of Life pavilion and the old Energy Pavilion (current Guardians coaster construction site), because more often … Read more
Our last Guardians of the Galaxy Roller Coaster construction update showed us a look at the old Ellen’s Energy Adventure building.

Construction work at Remy’s Ratatouille Adventure is powering on, and we noticed a couple changes from our last update late last month. Let’s take a look! Construction walls now line all the way down the entrance way to Epcot, coming from the Epcot resorts area. This makes it difficult to see any real construction as … Read more
April showers are proving to be a real thing in Orlando this year, but that didn’t stop me from hitting Epcot. I grabbed my umbrella and my boots and I was rainy day ready for the park! (I still went home with wet socks, though, so I’m jealous of all of you reading this with … Read more
