News New Park Entrance coming to Epcot

[Mac Tonight]

I like it. It's not often I get to say that about a new addition to Epcot, but it looks great.

Hardcore and longtime Epcot fans right now.

After the holidays would be a good time to go back to original music too...

Didn't someone mention about a new entrance music planned to debut sometime next year or sometime after the opening of the fountain?

Yes. Still TBD.

Okay I was pretty close about those boxes being for light and mist effects.. then again they are "water cooled" so....

I think they did a great job, really killed it imo. its been a long process, but it was worth it, the entire front end of epcot is much much better than it was 2 years ago. Now to see how the rest of it unfolds.....

No more complaining about the shins. They are fine and not noticeable or detracting from the fountain.

And the lighting is worth it

Funny how unknowingly people walk right past the new pylons/fountain. Meanwhile this is a big win for us here

They want to enter the park. Having the entry plaza be one of the most beautiful spots in any theme park has always been an odd choice. This should be the hub not scene one. They put their best foot forward then hit you with a pair of clogs.

Do we think the new music will debut when the Christmas music leaves in January?

Great to see this and the entrance area of EPCOT looking as good as it does now. It's a shame about the rest of the park though.

Slight bit of a stretch to claim an oval around a fountain is in reference to the old oval fountain, but that would be something if it were intentional.

I hope not I Hope there’s another fountain on the other side of Spaceship Earth to carry out the reference, purpose and same functions.

I am very happy to see the spires back! Good to see this nod to “EPCOT CENTER”.
