Epcot is transforming right before our very eyes!
Spaceship Earth
You got it, folks. Epcot is undergoing a MAJOR transformation over the next few years and the evidence is clear in the park. With construction, new shows coming soon, and more construction, it’s hard to keep up with all the changes. Well, one piece of the transformation is complete today and that’s the new Camera Center and Pin Traders merch shop!
Camera Center and Pin Traders used to be two separate locations and a while back, both of the retail spots closed. Well, that was all in anticipation of a little makeover happening at Camera Center. Now, Pin Traders occupies the same space and the store is OPEN for business in the shadow of Spaceship Earth.

Since it’s pretty easy to snap a photo on your cell phone, the needs and wants of a Camera Center have evolved.

Now Camera Center pretty much consists of a Disney Photopass desk with two kiosks and info on the program. It’s the Camera Center of today!

On the other side of the store, Pin Traders is sittin’ pretty with those pin-lined walls that we love so much.

We even spotted some upcoming limited edition pins! This set commemorated the 20th Anniversary of Disney Pin Trading with a SUPER COOL set of pins. The green outer layer opens up to reveal some of our fave Disney characters. How can you not want to collect them all?

I was there Saturday and the place that usually has pins is only now like 1/4 pins. I like this idea much better, it looks like there is more room to move around in. Did you guys find that there was?
My son would have been in pin heaven! We went on his Wish trip at the end of October which was also our first time at Disney and pin trading was his favorite thing! We cannot wait to go back!
