Welcome back, DFB friends! We’re here with another What’s New at EPCOT!
And, we’ve got plenty of updates to share with you! So, what are you waiting for? Let’s dive right on in!
EPCOT Merchandise Update
Mouse Gear
We didn’t spot any new merchandise in Mouse Gear, BUT the shop had rearranged its item around the shop for a fresh layout!
We noticed that the pins…
…plushes…
…and Wishables had been moved to new locations with more room for guests to go shopping.
Who else is ready for their next Disney shopping trip in EPCOT?
EPCOT Entertainment Update
Festival of the Arts
We’ve been blown away by all the incredible chalk art masterpieces we’ve seen lining the sidewalks at this year’s EPCOT Festival of the Arts! We’ve seen some amazing pieces inspired by Coco, Frozen, and others, but the Mary Poppins Chalk Art might be our favorite yet!
Chalk artist Nate Baranowski was working on the wonderfully detailed 3D piece that featured the dancing penguins straight out of the film.
Guests are able to take two different photo ops on the chalk art by either joining the penguins in a jolly ole’ dance when you stand on the designated footprints, OR they can balance on the top of the bridge overlooking the pond!
It’s the last day of the Festival of the Arts, though, so you’ll want to hurry over to EPCOT to see the chalk art in person before it’s gone!
Take a look at all Mary Poppins chalk art details!
Leave a Legacy Display
Amidst all the construction in EPCOT, we were so sad to see the Leave a Legacy panels disappear in the park. Now that the entryway has seen some major changes with the new fountain and pylons, the Leave a Legacy display has been re-installed with a gorgeous rainbow color scheme!
We’ve seen more displays added around the entrance each time we’ve returned to the park, and now there was an extra wall near the EPCOT’s bus stop!
Guests can now view photos on panels 401 through 452 by using the QR code and numbers listed on the displays so they can spot their own pictures during their next visit.
Well, that’s all for this What’s New at EPCOT! We’ll catch you next time for more updates. And, if you have any questions about your upcoming Disney vacation, let us know so we can help you find the answers!
