Journey of Water featuring Moana coming to Epcot

[Bocabear]

This is essentially the ethos of a childrens museum, the first of which opened in Brooklyn in 1899 with the mission to informally educate children through entertainment, interactivity, and play. So Walt may have coined the term, but I don't think he invented this philosophy of education.

Ohhh is that what Play! pavilion is going to be about?

Was a terrible stench coming from behind the walls the other day. It was like a really bad sewage smell with everyone kind of looking at one another as the smell hit.

Chapek in the park ?

Is this a 2022 or 2023 attraction?

Yes.

I'd be shocked if this opened in 2022.

 

[ilovetotravel1977]

Yes.

Oh. It's one of those "all of the above" possible answers LOL

You get a "Like" solely for the proper use of "whet".

I feel so cooled off already! lol

I am just shocked that we havent had any real concept art to get us hyped yet. I think thats part of peoples complaints at this point (besides size, cost, what could have been, and what was). Normally by the time construction starts we at least have some concept art giving us an idea of what to expect.

I really hope this is ready in time for Epcot's 40th. Would be nice if all the walls would finally come down.

At the rate they are going, we will be lucky to have all of the walls down by Epcot’s 45th!

I will never understand why this is being added to EPCOT.
I also don’t understand why is it taking so long to put in what is really a glorified splash pad.

EPCOT’s 40th is this October. They will obviously not make it and for EPCOT’s 40th we will still have a lot of walls.

Maybe for EPCOT’s 40th they can decorate the walls with paint and stickers. Bobby C loves paint and stickers.

1) The Epcot you and I knew is gone.
2) Demolition of existing structures, plus digging and construction of new ones - with the required plumbing - done during a time when covid severely restricted the size of work crews, if they even worked at all.

No more COVID passes for Disney. Even the ILL's are sold out.
But, you're right, the old epcot is gone. They'll pay homage to it at the entrance. Anything past there is Festival of the Arts, Wine, Food, Flowers, Gardens, and Holidays. The walls will come down and more food booths will be installed. For your ticket, you'll get a chance to ride an E-Ticket, D-Ticket, multiple C-Tickets, and do the Drinking Around the World challenge.

It'll be Magical!

Yea, here's to hoping it will still be something good, it may be. Hey if we get a dancing fountain and fiber-optic sidewalks we'll be most of the way there.

Drinking Around the World challenge

Let's call it the "Drinking Around the World Demonstration". I don't see much of a challenge to it and "what not to do" is frequently demonstrated. Drinking Around the World Spectacle? ET meltdown?
