food IS a theme park
Merry (almost) Christmas from EPCOT!
Spaceship Earth
We’re back to take a look at the new food, merchandise, and attraction updates! We spotted quite a few new items and a gift shop has reopened. Step inside a very festive EPCOT to see what we found!
While the France Pavilion expansion is still not open, we DO have some news from EPCOT’s Parisian pavilion!
France Pavilion Shops
TWO France pavilion shops reopened today with some new Beauty and the Beast merchandise. So, let’s step inside Plume et Palette and La Signature for the first time since March!
Let’s be honest: more often than not, when those sweet cravings hit at Disney World, we go BANANAS for over-the-top ice cream sundaes, colossal ice cream sandwiches, and Boston Cream Pie Donuts the size of…Boston. But sometimes — just sometimes! — all we want is a lil’ treat!
L’Artisan des Glaces
While roving around EPCOT, we found the PERFECT solution for those dainty cravings in the form of a macaron surprise!
It seems like there’s always some sort of construction going on at Disney World, especially now, as lots of new attractions and refurbishments are being prepared for the park’s 50th anniversary next year.
TRON Construction November 2020
We’ve been following along with all the upcoming projects because we’re so excited to see them getting closer and closer to being completed! There’s definitely a lot to keep track of, so here’s ALL the construction going on in Disney World this week!
We’re CERTAINLY looking forward to the opening of Remy’s Ratatouille Adventure in EPCOT.
Remy’s Ratatouille Construction
Due to delays from the global health crisis, the new attraction is now on track to open in 2021. We’ve been keeping a close eye on construction progress in the France Pavilion expansion from above in the Disney Skyliner, and now, we just got ANOTHER sneak peek thanks to the ABC Holiday Special!
There are lots of projects going on all around Disney World, but especially over at EPCOT as part of that park’s transformation.
Remy’s Ratatouille Adventure
One of those special projects is the expansion of the France pavilion with the new Remy’s Ratatouille Adventure attraction, La Crêperie de Paris restaurant, and the surrounding area. With the Ratatouille attraction and crêpe shop both set to open in 2021, we’re keeping a close eye on this whole area. Today, as we flew past in the Disney Skyliner, we noticed that a brand new kiosk has been added!
Hello from EPCOT!
EPCOT
The Taste of EPCOT International Festival of the Holidays will be starting in just a few days! But we couldn’t wait until then to make our way around this fantastic park. Join us as we walk around EPCOT to check out the new holiday booths that are already up, get an update on some drink options around the park, and check out some cool merchandise!
We’re SO excited for all the new things coming to EPCOT!
Spaceship Earth
Last week we learned LOTS of exciting details about many of these projects during the “EPCOT — The Magic of Possibility” presentation as part of D23’s Fantastic Worlds events. Disney shared news about Remy’s Ratatouille Adventure, Harmonious, Guardians of the Galaxy: Cosmic Rewind, and more! Not too long after that, Disney shared a press release on their website about the EPCOT transformation as well. And while this was all super exciting, we couldn’t help but notice a few things were missing. But we were also excited to see that a few things we haven’t heard about in a while were still mentioned. Let’s break it all down.
Who’s ready for a festive trip to EPCOT??
Christmas Tree in EPCOT

There are lots of new additions coming to EPCOT’s France Pavilion, including a fountain of rats, and a crepe restaurant!!
