It does, but limited time. Maybe they need a summer after hours party for $199 a head. $189 for APs!

Realistically, I’m thinking new Epcot summer festival.
Could also be for Hispanic Heritage Month, which is, I think, mid-September to mid-October.

I truly think this is a replacement for Frozen. They’ll test in for a month and then replace it, I imagine. It’s probably due to contracts that they can’t call it permanent.

Perhaps they’ll add Kristoff to Friendship Faire to give the cast member a placement through his contract - though I’m sure that the original storytellers would not be able to continue, considering that they’re looking for actors that can portray citizens of Fairy-Tale Columbia. Maybe they’ll hire them in a two-person Citizens show, or resurrect the Red Carpet host bit.

Here's the announcement of ¡Celebración Encanto!:

Debuting June 10, sing along at ¡Celebración Encanto! and stroll through the newly opened CommuniCore Plaza, CommuniCore Hall and Mickey & Friends spaces at EPCOT.

Everyone will be talking about Bruno from June 10-Sept. 6 because a new summer sing-along featuring the beloved songs and story of “Encanto” is in development now. This new limited-time show, “¡Celebración Encanto!” runs several times throughout the day and will not only invite you and your family to sing along with some of your favorite songs, but you’ll also spot Mirabel and Bruno on the newly opened CommuniCore Plaza stage.

Are they going to have no food booths at Epcot for 3 whole months? Do they think a show will get crowds to Epcot if there’s no festival and Test Track is closed? I had once heard a new summer festival was being explored but I guess this is all we get.

I am at a loss for words.

This space has been under construction for the better part of a decade. It had been designed to complement its surroundings. Then they go and stick Encanto theming and a show on it? Even temporary, that is an absolute disgrace.

These people have lost their ever loving minds.
