News New Spaceship Earth Lounge Coming to EPCOT

Im confused, is this going to be something anyone can just walk in and enjoy? Or reservations or special groups only...

Most likely walk up but expect waits because it's small.

Unclear if it will have reservations like say Oga's but I am picturing something along the lines of Nomad Lounge or Baseline.

This is going to carry a premium at 9pm - firework view!

Going to be harder to get in than Oga's Cantina

This seems to be a plus, considering the space is not really used and was originally planned to be demoed.
Looks nice, and I am sure it will be popular with the barfly crowd.

But yeah, I have to agree it would be nice to see the money being allotted to do this refresh be used elsewhere.
Spaceship Earth needs that retrack after all….

This could've been called Fountain View Lounge, but...

This was an unexpected surprise. I like they are turning an unused space into something everyone can enjoy.

...and generate expensive bar tabs! Something there's a huge shortage of in EPCOT.

An improvement still.

Much rather have this than the proposed giant bar on stilts that was axed. (Thank God)

Mixed emotions for me, I always thought this would be the most likely place for DVC to relocate to should they vacate Imagination. That's definitely not in the cards anymore. I guess there's plenty of other vacant lounges at EPCOT they can pick from for another DVC area though.

I feel like this is also a good indicator that they're not seeking another sponsor for SSE, the lounge would've been a large selling point that they can't really use anymore. I never thought they were, but this is another nail in that coffin.

I think we should all blame the Phoenicians…

In reality, have a drink for the road on your way to the parking lot…
