food IS a theme park
EPCOT is in the midst of a MAJOR transformation!

New attractions like Remy’s Ratatouille Adventure and Guardians of the Galaxy: Cosmic Rewind are in progress. Plus much of the park is getting a new look. We’re especially excited to see Harmonious, the new nighttime spectacular — but we can’t say we’re happy about how those massive barges look in the water… .
It’s kind of a weird time for Disney World right now.
EPCOT
As you can imagine there are LOTS of upcoming offerings that we’re excited about, from attractions to restaurants and everything in between. At the same time, we haven’t had any big NEW announcements in a while. So, there’s only so much we know about the next few years in Disney World. What can we expect for the years to come?
Note that this post has been updated to reflect what to expect at Disney World in the summer of 2022.
So, hey, we hear you might be planning a trip to Disney World this summer!

A LOT changed at Disney World when it reopened with new health and safety protocols in place.

This meant that a lot of entertainment, including parades and nighttime entertainment — like fireworks — is still not happening at the parks. Although we have seen some fireworks testing, Disney has not announced when they will return.
Hello from the Experimental Prototype Community Of Tomorrow, aka EPCOT!
Mickey!
We’ve been keeping an eye on things at the park so that we can keep you updated on the very latest. So are you ready? Let’s get on with the updates!
Welcome back to EPCOT!
Spaceship Earth
We’ve been enjoying the Flower and Garden Festival, ringing in spring, and closely following all the construction around the park. But let’s check out what else is new!
It’s another day in Disney World and you know what that means…we’ve got MORE updates from EPCOT about its upcoming nighttime spectacular — Harmonious!
Harmonious Centerpiece
We have been keeping an eye on all of the work being done in EPCOT on its new, upcoming fireworks show. So far, we’ve seen some seriously LARGE barges be placed in World Showcase Lagoon and we’ve even seen them lit up. But today we spotted something new!
Spring is in FULL bloom at EPCOT, and we just love to see it all.
We go to the parks every. single. day. So, we have ALL of the updates from the park. From new food to merch to spring break crowds, here’s what we’ve seen at this Walt Disney World park lately!
There is a lot to love when it comes to Disney World!
Spaceship Earth and the New Lights
It is the Most Magical Place on Earth after all, and is full of fun rides, characters, and food (obviously). But, there are some things in Disney World that are…well…not so magical. These things may be different for some people, but there is one thing that practically everyone agrees to hate so far: the Harmonious barges in EPCOT.
We got some major Disney World announcements recently.
EPCOT
We learned the official opening dates for two new things coming to EPCOT later this year — Remy’s Ratatouille Adventure and La Crêperie de Paris! They’ll both be opening on October 1st in celebration of Disney World’s 50th Anniversary. But, we couldn’t help but notice that another upcoming attraction wasn’t mentioned — EPCOT’s new fireworks show, Harmonious.
