…And one of those dates is October 1st, 2021. On that day, Walt Disney World is celebrating a BIG anniversary — its 50th!!
Wow! Disney news has been off the charts recently!

We learned a lot of important updates from Josh D’Amaro, the Disney Parks, Experiences, and Products Chairman, at the IAAPA Expo, Imagineers and teams at the D23 Fantastic Worlds event, and from Disney announcements. We’re here to review ALL of the big news updates from this week!
Ready to eat in space? Well, Space 220, which is a new restaurant coming to EPCOT, may not actually take you physically off of planet Earth, but it’ll definitely make you feel like you’re floating among the stars.

Space 220 was announced some time ago and was originally supposed to open last winter, but has still not opened its doors. We’ve been keeping an eye on the construction progress we’ve been able to see from the outside, but today Disney gave us a small peek INSIDE the restaurant!
We’ve been anxiously awaiting the day we can finally enjoy an out-of-this-world meal at Space 220!

At this new EPCOT restaurant, guests will board an elevator that takes them into orbit as they travel to the Centauri Space Station above the Earth. While dining 220 miles above the Earth’s surface (hence the restaurant’s name!) guests will be treated to a full panoramic view of space!
Disney World is pretty consistently under construction in one way or another. Still, that constant construction saw a pretty big interruption this year with the closure of the theme parks and the subsequent halt on construction.
Future World Construction
Since then, we’ve seen a few projects delayed indefinitely and potentially even canceled. Still, there are some projects that march on (at least to the best of our knowledge) — and you might’ve forgotten about some of them! Here are 4 Disney World construction projects you totally forgot were underway!
