Santa is HIDING in EPCOT. Here's Where to Find Him.

Festivities are in full effect over in EPCOT!

Aurora Borealis on Spaceship Earth

We’ve been exploring the International Festival of the Holidays recently — there’s so much food to eat and entertainment to check out, you won’t want to miss any of it. But did you know Santa is hiding in all the holiday festivities? Here’s where you can find him!

Over in the Odyssey Pavilion, Santa is taking photos with guests in his sleigh! The sleigh is against a beautiful winter backdrop.

Sleigh

You’ll get to sit in the sleigh to get an epic photo with Santa Claus. He comes out at 11AM, 12:30PM, 2PM, 3:30PM, 5PM, and 6:30PM for an hour at a time and he’ll be around until December 24th — then it’s time for him to get ready for Christmas!

Santa!!

If the Odyssey Pavilion doesn’t sound familiar, it’s the building you can walk through to get to World Showcase near Test Track. It used to house the EPCOT Experience attraction before it closed back in March.

The Odyssey Pavilion

This is the only place you’ll be able to meet Santa in EPCOT, so if that’s a priority for you and your family, be sure to stop by! And while you’re at it, be sure to grab a Virtual Queue ticket for Cosmic Rewind, because it’s got a holiday overlay you can experience for a limited time. Make sure you stay late enough to see the new Frozen-inspired Spaceship Earth light show as well! As always, stay tuned to DFB for all the latest EPCOT and holiday news.

See which Disney World park is closing early for the majority of next week!
