Heading beyond Spaceship Earth, we enter the first distinct area of EPCOT: World Celebration. World Celebration is devoted to the wonders of our world, and an everlasting tribute to the powers that helped make this world what it is. Any adventure at EPCOT begins here at World Celebration, and its warm and inviting atmosphere is the perfect way to be led further into the wonders of EPCOT. World Celebration is surrounded by ponds and canals, like the ones that surrounded the CommuniCore Plaza back in the early days of the park. In addition, you'll also find new flowing streams and small rocky waterfalls adding motion beneath the swaying of the tall trees, which also provide much needed shade to the area. Vibrant flowers along the grassy banks of the water add color to the area, while the reflections of Spaceship Earth and the surrounding buildings add even more life and visual interest to the plaza. New paths lead directly from Spaceship Earth both east and west, allowing easy navigation and traffic flow to Guardians of the Galaxy: Cosmic Rewind and The Living Seas. In addition, the World Celebration plaza would also make use of real-life urban technologies, like capturing and using rainwater for irrigating the landscape. The lighting will also be something of note, as when the sun goes down, the flora of World Celebration will transform into a neon spectacle that will be some serious competition for the nighttime effects of Pandora: The World of Avatar. Dark lights and other neon stimuli will light up around World Celebration, creating a colorful array of designs they truly bring it to life. Even the monorail track that goes around the front half of EPCOT will be affected by these lights, and glow similar to this image at the Disneyland Hotel pool.
Exiting from Spaceship Earth, the first thing you'll come across in World Celebration is Dreamers' Point, which offers sweeping views of World Showcase just across the way. Dreamers' Point is anchored by a new statue celebrating the legacy of the original dreamer, Walt Disney, plus beautiful natural environments and global design elements filled with Disney magic and surprises, including a Wishing Tree in an enchanted forest and the Storyteller's Fountain, celebrating the power and music of iconic Disney storytelling. World Celebration is also the place to go if you want to meet up with Mickey, Minnie, Goofy and Pluto.
Further down the way -- connected to Spaceship Earth via a "light trail" -- is the EPCOT Festival Center, the premier place for specialty events for EPCOT's four signature festivals -- the Festival of the Arts, the Flower and Garden Festival, the Food and Wine Festival and the Festival of the Holidays. It will provide a stunning elevated view of the entire park and an ideal spot to witness the park's nighttime spectacular, HarmonioUS. This beautiful three-level structure will have one of the most remarkable architectural designs at any Disney park, featuring a plaza level, a middle expo level, and a park that sits in the sky on the top level.
With the arrival of World Celebration comes the removal of Innoventions. Only one quadrant of the Innoventions complex remains -- specifically, the northeastern quadrant. Formerly the home of Electric Umbrella, this quadrant plays host to a re-located Centorium. The Centorium is the largest shop in EPCOT, so large that it takes up two floors. The first floor of the Centorium features a large assortment of EPCOT and Disney character merchandise. Items include books, slider puzzles featuring the Future World pavilion logos, stuffed animals, buttons, patches, jewelry, DVDs, CDs, posters, t-shirts, and hats. The second floor of the Centorium can be accessed by a glassed-in elevator. From here, you can look down at the first floor. Items include various electronic gadgets, such as watches, model vehicles, and iPod/iPhone/iPad accessories. The Centorium building also plays host to the park's Guest Relations center.
Now, I'm sure you're wondering, why would I move Centorium? Well, I figured that one of my concepts for a new restaurant would serve as the new "main child-friendly restaurant", hence why I feel it's not too much of a hassle to remove Electric Umbrella. Plus, I wanted to make sure I had enough room for this next addition. With the arrival of this new transformation for EPCOT, I want to be able to restore what is widely considered to be the park's mission statement...
New Horizons is the rock in which EPCOT casts its very foundation. Within its walls, New Horizons brings the entirety of World Celebration, World Discovery and World Nature together, uniting all prevalent themes into one spectacular attraction. Technology, transportation, food, health, history, space, imagination, and more connect the dots of creativity into a fantastic glimpse at our future from a scientific, nonsensical, or realistic viewpoint. Just about everyone is fascinated with the future and what it might hold for us. And New Horizons provided us with an inspiring and exciting look at how life may change for humanity in the years to come.
By the way, if you're wondering how Horizons would fit, I crafted this in Paint, showcasing that if Horizons were to overtake Mouse Gear, it would still be able to fit within the park without disrupting the monorail line. Of course, the landscape would have to be altered and the lagoons be pushed back in order to make way for such a big building, but it's certainly not impossible.
However, given that the old Horizons is very much outdated -- and that quite a few of the elements it depicted have indeed come to fruition -- this new version of Horizons would depict a new vision of the future, whilst still remaining faithful to the original. In fact, I would utilize @Harryg11's excellent outline for a new Horizons.
Setting off from a redesigned FuturePort, the wheels of time turn ever faster in this vision for the future with its roots in the past. This inspirational, 20-minute, Omnimover-style attraction is built as both a tribute to the original classic, and an inspiring look at new technologies. The experience is narrated by the old narrators' granddaughter from Mesa Verde and her "beachboy" husband. It seems only fitting to have this new version of Horizons narrated by the descendants of the old narrators. This new journey begins with a truncated "Looking Back at Tomorrow" sequence, featuring the Jules Verne, Robidas Paris and the 30's perception of the 80's. Then, we jump ahead to the future as seen through the eyes of the 80's -- the original Horizons. Four famous scenes from the O.G. Horizons have been recreated for this new version, to showcase how far we've come in such a short period of time. For Nova Cite, the old narrators' living room. For Mesa Verde, the harvester scene with the control booth and hover vehicle. For Sea Castle, the "beachboy's" solo sub repair room. Finally for Brava Centauri, the anti gravity room with the dog and the child's missing shoe.
From there, we jump ahead in time to see how these four cities would evolve with 21st-century technology in mind. We are treated to an even bigger and better adventure into the future with an ongoing message of coexisting with our fellow humans in a peaceful and unified world. In Nova Cite, the highways have been expanded to include lanes specifically for flying vehicles. Mesa Verde showcases how humans have learnt to live with a land affected by climate change -- showcasing more modern desert farming, dense forests filled with trees, and national parks where endangered species can be conserved. Sea Castle has been updated to showcase modern possibilities for how to colonize the seas and to make sure the coral reefs continue to flourish. Finally, Space Centauri depicts the harvesting many resources in the cosmos, plus the arrival of fusion power -- the power of the stars. Heading inside a space station, we see our guides step inside a teleportation tube to be sent back to Earth. From there, the ride ends much like the original did -- the teleportation tube has taken them to their family's home in Nova Cite for their nephew's birthday party. Leaving the revitalized utopia, we are given the opportunity to glance at our own future through the ride's spectacular finale: a simulated, "choose-your-own" journey back to the FuturePort. Via flight (or submarine), we can choose one of three methods: land, sea, or space...
Often considered to be this park's masterpiece, New Horizons is the promise of a bigger and better future with an ongoing message of global unification and peace. In this future, and as it should stand today, it does not matter whether we come from different races, backgrounds, cultures or religions, we all have the same aspirations and dreams.Together, this peaceful and unified future can be achieved. If I may quote from the original ride's narrator, "If we can dream it, we really can do it. And that's the most exciting part."
Going forward from the center of World Celebration, we find two extensions. First, heading over towards Test Track in World Discovery, we have a building once referred to as Odyssey. Now, the building has turned into a newly-revitalized Innoventions. "Innoventions" is a combination of the words "innovation" and "invention". Therefore, the exhibits presented here are exactly that, a cutting edge glimpse into the various future technologies and ideas of our ever and always changing world. In fact, there's so much to see, that the Odyssey building has been expanded with the addition of a second floor.
The all-indoor showcase of Innoventions is divided into one unique exhibit after another, all in focus on the wonder and imagination we might use to better our lives in the coming century. The House of the Future and Apple Exhibition, the latter hosted by the multinational Apple Inc., preview the up and coming best in personal living, consumer electronics, computer software, and online communication. The Tesla Showroom specializes in electric car displays and, through Tesla, Inc.'s Solar City subsidiary, solar panel manufacturing and use.
The "If We Can Dream It" Labs are an interactive design laboratory which enables guests to create new technology that will be useful into the 21st century and beyond. Acting as a continuation to the Spaceship Earth finale, these laboratories will set guests up at specific design stations for a variety of technology of the 21st century. If you're interested in designing technology for outer space, you venture to the space port and with assist from design guides, follow the "story" on each design studio to help build technology for the future. For instance, the space port story - a group of explorers are on the Moon and their communications are lost. You are given three options to see how you can restore the communication and you work together with friends and family to try and solve the mystery and get the communication back by creating new solutions to the problems. It's an interactive exhibit that actually requires critical thinking skills and deductive reasoning, making it a unique location in EPCOT and something that embodies the edutainment values of the original theme park.
Tucked away inside a special corner of Innoventions is an old friend from the early days of CommuniCore, SMRT-1. SMRT-1 is a purple and chrome robot set on a rotating pedestal surrounded by telephones, and he invites guests to play along in trivia and guessing games. When your turn comes up, SMRT-1 asks you (in its synthesized voice) to speak your answer loud and clear through the phone. It also spends some time ad-libbing and singing between games: "If I keep this up I might graduate from Solid State."
Going upstairs to the new second floor of Innoventions, the first exhibit we'll come across is perhaps, the kookiest of all the exhibits found here: Von Drake's House of Genius. What technological expo wouldn't be complete without an appearance from Disney's foremost genius on just about anything? Professor Ludwig Von Drake is, as described by Walt, "an eminent psychologist, renowned color expert, etymologist" and "the most sought after lecturer in the world." This so-called "House of Genius" is an unexpected delight - a look at the future, a future that appeals more to the cartoon denizens of Disney. A quick tour through the Hall of Invention shows a number of utterly useless inventions and ideas - back-scratching robots, googly-eyed trash cans that chow down on garbage, dancing wind-up toys the size of automobiles, you name it, it's there. Von Drake Labs on the other hand is an interactive playground for scientists of all ages to explore. Various contraptions and whirligigs invite hands-on discovery and nonsense, often at the expense of an unwilling Donald caught as a stubborn participant in the wrong place at the right time.
The lighthearted House of Genius ends in Von Drake's "Sing-Along Stadium," a small viewing chamber for those fabulous Sing-Along Songs, which the Professor co-hosted alongside his associates, Professor Owl and Jiminy Cricket. Throughout the day, all the episodes these three enigmatic figures hosted play on a loop, all of them remastered from their original VHS distribution. They are, in order of release date, Zip-A-Dee-Doo-Dah, Heigh-Ho, The Bare Necessities, You Can Fly, Fun With Music, Under the Sea, I Love to Laugh, Be Our Guest, Friend Like Me, Circle of Life and Colors of the Wind. Of course, during the Festival of the Holidays, the Jiminy-hosted Very Merry Christmas Songs joins the rotation as well. Of course, if you wish to meet the Professor in person, he and Donald have their own meet-and-greet here!
Moving on, we come upon three more exhibits. First is City Builders. This exhibit allows its guests to sit at design stations and essentially build a city from the ground up. Starting in the current year and working your way up 100 years, you'll be able to create your own city using futuristic designs and your own customized layouts. Nearby, we find that CyberSpace Mountain, a staple of the Blue Sky Cellar at Disney Springs' Paradise Pier, has found a second home here at Innoventions. Its hands-on approach to the wild world of coaster-building would be a natural fit for this interactive play-place! Finally, by combining state-of-the-art virtual-reality technology, physical sets and multi-sensory effects, including touch and smell, The VOID: Step Beyond Reality invites Innoventions visitors to become active participants in uniquely themed environments. Surrounded by 3D imagery and sound in an immersive story by ILMxLAB and The Void, brave heroes walk around freely without a tether as they explore an exciting new world. Star Wars: Secrets of the Empire, Ralph Breaks VR!, and Black Panther: Wakanda Escape are among the three featured adventures. Interact with popular characters and each other in a virtual environment designed to capture the groundbreaking technology - and the magic of illusion.
Innoventions perfectly compliments Flamingo Cove, a natural arboretum tying in with the lush greenery of World Celebration. One of the many nice little touches of the original EPCOT Center was the flock of flamingos that used to hang out nearby the Odyssey. Well, with this new arboretum, the flamingos will once again find a home here at EPCOT. Leading off past the arboretum, the path splinters off in two directions. The left path leads to World Showcase, while the right path connects back to World Celebration.
As for the other extension of World Celebration, since this area of EPCOT is devoted to the promise of the future, we're going to need to showcase how we can discover new ways to improve our future. Fortunately, we have the perfect way to showcase that. Permit me to present one of the most visually stunning pavilions in all of EPCOT: the Journey Into Imagination pavilion!
The Journey Into Imagination pavilion is marked by two large glass pyramids that can turn into rainbow prisms (thanks to new projected lights). Unique fountains provide fun, enticing kinetic energy. At night, LED lights and fiber optics will brilliantly illuminate the area. Walking up towards the pavilion, you'll find that it looks more fanciful than ever. Outside, the building looks almost unchanged, aside from the new color scheme that reintroduces the light purples and blues that adorned the pavilion back in the day. And, thanks to a recent cleaning, the two glass pyramids atop the pavilion shine so bright that even on a cloudy day it becomes necessary to wear sunglasses to observe the structure. As guests enter the pavilion, they will first see that the building has been gutted, and the original lobby has been restored to its former glory, as in the days of the original Journey. The Walt Peregoy murals on both the ceiling and the walls have been lovingly recreated with updated color schemes and iridescent painting effects. A central spiral staircase leads upstairs to ImageWorks. Wrapping around this staircase is a circular queue that leads towards a strange purple-colored vehicle, our chariot that will take us through the adventure this pavilion is named after: Journey Into Imagination!
That's right -- this iconic EPCOT Center attraction has returned to delight a new generation. On-board this adventure, guests meet Dreamfinder and his newest creation: a little purple dragon named Figment. After visiting the DreamPort, where the twosome store all their ideas, guests then proceed through several rooms representing four different areas influenced by the imagination: art, literature, the performing arts and science; all to discover how much can be accomplished with just "one little spark of inspiration." The only change I'd make to the ride would be to utilize modern technology to improve the turntable's reliability, and to prevent the turntable from drilling itself into the floor.
Upon exiting the ride, you can go up inside one of the pyramids and explore the ImageWorks, where you can let your imagination run wild through several different exhibits. Much like with the ride downstairs, the ImageWorks has been restored to its former glory. Though some exhibits have been given 21st-century updates, some of the experiences remain the same as they used to. There are two ways to get here -- you can come here after taking the Journey for yourselves, or you can head up a spiral staircase found right in the middle of the ride's queue. In fact, if I may borrow a floor-plan from the excellent EPCOT Discovery Gateway site, here's what you'll be able to find here.
1. Figment's Coloring Book: Use projected light to add color to giant pictures of Dreamfinder and Figment.
The Sensor -- "It Knows You're There!"
2. Rainbow Corridor: A tunnel of neon tubes light up as you walk past. As you enter, a particular color is assigned to you and follows you all the way through. When the next person enters, a new color lights up.
3. The Mirage Room: The use of mirrors makes it seem like you can grab onto a three dimensional image of Figment, but when you try to, you can't because it's a mirage.
4. Stepping Tones: Hexagonal colored spots on the floor play sounds when stepped upon.
5. Optical Illusion: A painted scene showing hot air balloons (including a Mickey balloon and the Dreamcatcher -- that would be Dreamfinder's iconic dirigible) rotate around a cylandrical mirror. The balloons are drawn flat and elongated, but when they are reflected onto the mirror, they appear in perfect proportions.
6. Dreamfinder's School of Drama: Step onto the stage and follow Dreamfinder's instructions. Through the use of Chroma-Key video technology, a background is added into the picture and other guests can see the finished product. You can act out one of three unique tales: a western called Daring Deputies and the Return of Sagebrush Sam, a sci-fi epic called Acrobatic Astronauts in Galactic Getaway and even a fairytale called Enchanted Travelers: Wily Wizard and the Cranky King.
7. Making Faces: Your picture is taken and then you get to alter your face with different hairstyles, noses, ears, and accessories.
8. Magic Palette: Paint pictures of Dreamfinder, Figment, or the Journey Into Imagination pavilion using a touch screen and computer controls.
9. Kaleidoscope: Large versions of traditional kaleidoscopes. Rotate the image to create fascinating designs.
10. Pin Screens: Giant tables with thousands of pins allow you to run your hands underneath creating swirls of color.
11. Electric Philharmonic: Conduct an orchestra by raising or lowering your hands above sensors that will raise or lower the volume of individual sections of the orchestra. If you go back and forth fast enough, you can get all of the sections playing together.
A: Elevator
B: Stairs
C: Escalator Up
D: Escalator Down
Just outside of the attraction is the pavilion's beautiful outdoor courtyard, known as the Magic Garden. Guests are greeted by an array of colorful, "jumping" fountains. The outside of the pavilion even features a recreation of the glass pyramids, as fountain jets shoot upwards towards it, almost creating a rising waterfall. A Figment topiary spins around and around. This garden is a nice place to meet up with Dreamfinder and Figment themselves.
Located within this garden is the Sparks of Inspiration shop,selling Figment and Dreamfinder merchandise, creative supplies such as pencils and sketchbooks, and novelty science items such as bubble mixture or laser pens. Plus, tying right in with the "imagination" aspect of the pavilion, this is the place where imaginative folk can design our own toys, purchase Legos and erector sets, customize our phone cases, and make their own plush, a la Build-a-Bear Workshop. This will be in the same place as the original Kodak Camera & Film shop was years ago.
Continuing further down into the pavilion, you'll come across the Magic Eye Theater, home to an all-new 4D attraction. In a matter most similar to the extinct Cranium Command at Wonders of Life, Inside Out: Magical Mind is a humorous and often thought-provoking presentation on the importance of a child's imagination. The old Magic Eye Theater has been retrofitted to resemble the Headquarters of the human mind, in this case, the mind of Riley, a twelve-year-old girl living in San Francisco. The 4D film portrays the imagination in a new light; one that captures the design and thought process behind peculiar ideas and nonsensical creations. We join Joy, Fear, Sadness, Anger and Disgust as they aide Riley in the creation of an illustrated book report. We explore colorful imagery and visualized thoughts from reading the book, and things grow even wilder as Riley puts crayon to paper; a literal whirlwind of color and light.
The show exits out into Bing Bong's Sweet Stuff, a delightful, whimsical merchandise and confectionery location is found in a specially-made circular store just on the outskirts of the Jumping Fountains. Bing Bong's Sweet Stuff offers a scrumptious selection of candies, saltwater taffy, rainbow cotton candy, caramel apples, as well as fun Inside Out and Figment souvenirs, apparel and accessories. An Audio-Animatronics Jangles the Clown serves up "Memory Refreshers," frozen drinks available in all colors and flavors. Rainbow Unicorn oversees all the clothing and jewelry, and Bing Bong himself, joyfully crying candy tears, sits front and center in his makeshift rocketship.
In addition to all this, the five emotions -- Joy, Sadness, Anger, Fear and Disgust -- can be found for meet-n-greets at the Magic Garden.
Now, in modern-day EPCOT, I noticed there's a big patch of land right nearby the Imagination pavilion that just sits there. I feel like we can do something important with such a great big space, and as such, I'd like to welcome you to Food for Thought, a new table-service restaurant with a twist.
This restaurant is guaranteed to mesmerize guests, and makes full use of the MyMagic+ system. As guests enter the dining room, they place an order on a digital touch screen kiosk, and then scan their MagicBand or park ticket. An attendant will seat the guests, and they will scan their MagicBand or park ticket again at their seat. This will allow their order to be delivered straight to them, but not in a conventional manner. When the order is ready, it is placed on an elevator and sent up to the center peak of the restaurant. From here, the order slides down a coaster-type track, stopping right in front of the guest who ordered it. This adds a great amount of kinetics to the restaurant which, when combined with the spectacular views of the nearby gardens, are sure to make this a guest favorite. The concept of the "rollercoaster restaurant" is one that I have borrowed from Food Loop at Europa Park in Germany, which is, to my knowledge, the only application of this system in the world.
But what will the place serve, you may ask? Well, taking full advantage of being located in an imagination-centric pavilion, this restaurant practically runs on "create-your-own." Inspired by the "create-your-own-pasta" bars at Port Orleans Riverside and Art of Animation, this restaurant allows guests to create their own breakfast platters, yogurt parfaits, salads, pasta, pizza, burgers, sandwiches, ice-cream sundaes and more, thus allowing for a truly unique and imaginative experience!

What do you think, guys? I know not much has changed here, but I tried my best to tweak things around so that they line up with the announced changes. Plus, I feel that opening an updated Horizons would ultimately work the best, so that way, it would be a fresh new take on a beloved classic, yet still remain familiar enough to attract the EPCOT purists.
Well, World Discovery will likely be along sooner or later -- most likely, later tonight or tomorrow -- so until the next post, please leave any feedback you may have and I'll see you later!
EDIT (as of September 18, 2019): I have gone back and added in
@MANEATINGWREATH's Inside Out: Magical Mind and Bing Bong's Sweet Stuff concepts from his WestCOT, so all credit goes out to him on that count!
EDIT (as of November 4, 2019): Once again, I have returned to this post with another new idea in store; namely, turning Odyssey into Innoventions. Once again,
@MANEATINGWREATH's Mirror Disneyland concept served as my biggest inspiration for this idea, so credit goes to him.
