Just use World Showplace. With distancing ending, it is surely enough.

I feel like world showplace will be going back to private parties and not available anymore

That could happen. Once corporate buy outs happen again and a company rents out part of a park does one think business company execs would gather rent out Fantasyland or parts of World Showcase?

Pass

Probably just for food and wine

But Food and Wine looks like it is scheduled for half the year now, huh?

 

[Little Green Men]

Hopefully it won’t be permanent would be a shame to lose this show

Epcot - Where it’s a festival 365 days a year!

It’s big enough for both.

This is not permanent. And is being done for the same reason it was done the last time.

You know that’s not really feasible for several reasons. Also many events utilize the full venue

Do let GR know your displeasure.

So needlessly short sighted. More "less is more." More or less.

Dare I say guest experience comes first?

I know. So 1990s.

In their eyes this is putting the guest experience first.

This blows.

Can we get something in Rat since that's not doing anything? And a taco stand in Three Cabs because why not?

Exactly. How standards have fallen.

By turning an attraction into a party tent? At this point the pavilion is just one big food and wine kiosk. No attraction, no shopping, no gallery, no country specific entertainment. They really should just rename it Flex Space pavilion

Already started the email and will go to tell them in person over the weekend

Shopping and entertainment should return to the pavilion before the festival is over

Why not clean out the hotel and use that space for a food and wine venue and have a “new” space and keep the attraction operational.

edit: not attacking you, just don’t understand how this is thought to be good for the guest by removing an attraction

By turning an attraction into a party tent?

By taking an attraction that a very small percentage of Epcot guests experience and temporarily repurposing the space for something that a very large percentage of Epcot guests will utilize. Again it is temporary and it is not something that is going to become a recurring trend.
