It's getting a lot of hate on Twitter. "This doesn't belong in Epcot! "

But it's a nice little piece of streetmosphere and hear me out. Remember when Epcot used to have circus days? Never went but from pics I always felt like that was cheapening Epcot's vibe. I feel this blends in much better to the current Epcot then the circus days did with the old Epcot. Same kind of thing but it's the right scale, a streetmosphere scale, and not something that's trying to be a spectacular / reason to draw you into the park.

Could they have roped off a smaller area to put this in? Maybe a parking spot?

No issues with adding a show, just seems they hid it in the smallest possible place.

It's called an 'activation garden' and it's classy.

Well said. I’m a fan of these kind of things. Muppet Mobile Lab, JAMMitors, Sergio, Winged Encounters, DiVine, Citizens of Hollywood, Dapper Dans etc. Usually go unappreciated, but they add to the atmosphere and are fun to watch. To be honest, I didn’t think we’d get any new, small live entertainment offerings such as this anytime soon. If anything, I was thinking chopping block for some, sadly. I’m sure this will be seasonal, but a nice addition nonetheless.

Are you suggesting this doesn’t belong? have we actually gotten to the point where we don’t want entertainment cause it takes away from looking at the paint?

What did you think of it after watching in person?

 

[Epcot82Guy]

It looks like a nice add. I'll be interested to see how it is in person.

Hopefully it wont be gone before next week when my wife and I could possibly see it.

Pretty sure they're suggesting the opposite.

It is here for at least 3 months, so you will be ok

They were moved over to the Boardwalk after the parks reopened. Haven't seen them in some time though so I assume Disney didn't renew them?

I think this is a great addition. Adds some interest to the area and makes use of the space well. For me it is a much better fit in the area than the Jaminators.

 

[CJR]

I love it! Hope it lasts! It'll be one of those great small things to discover on vacation. Look forward to seeing it!

Watching the whole video makes it seem more polished. That snippet yesterday with just the techno music was what was making my family have fun with it. Especially after we were trying to figure out what that fixture was for. No one was expecting this!

Not complaining before anyone gets worked up, but the Twitter video yesterday was happily absurd.

I agree. They were so loud and disruptive.

I give it 6 months, seems like the first thing on the cut list if a quarter slightly underperforms.. smh

Jammitors are still jamming. If live entertainment is loud and disruptive all hope is lost.

Oh my heavens no, it's fine..But why are they complaining about acrobats in front of the park I was just referencing that there were shows like this in other parts of Epcot way before this...
