News Big changes coming to EPCOT's Future World?

[Tha Realest]

I think it’s an acknowledgement nothing is in the hopper for delivery in 2024 so they’ve slid this back in the queue

This may not be the right topic but has there been any indication if SSE's Beacons of light will be more or less "permanent" once the 50th is over? We really love the look this gives SSE and the nightly shows are incredible.

Thank you.

Thank you.

Spaceship Earth's beacon was noted to be a permanent change unlike the other beacons.

Did they make that roof on Communicore Hall strong enough to hold a roof garden?

Not even a slight hint of what used to be there.

Very depressing.

From Bioreconstruct:

It drives me NUTS when Disney builds these dinky little curbs around gardens when they’re the perfect spot for a retaining wall with built in bench.

But, but, then people wouldn't be in shops and restaurants spending money.

Here comes WDW’s favorite acoustic tile drop ceiling!

They’re already aren’t doing that, count how many people you see sprawled out on the ground next time you’re there

I will be more deeply concerned about the lack of seating if there isn’t any in the gardens themselves. I’m not sure lining the entire entrance walkway with seating would be the best look, even if there’s currently a dearth of places to sit in general.

They’ve started to replace the exterior panels for the rgb lighting in the entrance plaza and on the SSE east & west restrooms.

Going by the plans, that circular pour is probably for the covered stage.

Epic Universe will have broken ground, been constructed and open for a year before the Epcot core is finished.
I'll give Chapek his due on one point- Disney takes way too long to build anything these days.
