The holiday season has taken over Disney World — and we’re soaking in allll the festive details.
Christmas tree in EPCOT’s World Showcase
We’ve been to the first Mickey’s Very Merry Christmas Party and Jollywood Nights event. We will continue to admire all the decorations in the parks. And — OF COURSE — we’re ready to eat ALL the holiday treats. But one thing we also look forward to every year is the holiday overlays, especially the one at an underrated EPCOT ride. Well, good news: it’s finally here!
That ride is Living With The Land, and we think it’s underrated ALL year round, but now that it has its holiday overlay, we think it deserves some extra attention. This time of the year, the ride becomes EXTRA festive.

It’s so much fun to see how the ride changes this time of the year.
Pretty lights
You’ll even find gifts left out along the boat ride’s path.
Presents
The stockings were hung by the plants with care…
Stockings are up
…in hopes that Mickey soon would be there.
It’s Mickey-shaped!
There are so many little holiday details to notice, too.

We especially like the Christmas tree made out of flasks in the Biotechnology Lab.

It’s feeling very jolly for the Cast Members who actually work in the lab, too.
Inside the lab
We’re big fans of this display, celebrating the flavors of the season with cocoa beans, ginger, allspice, cloves, and more.

So, if you’re visiting EPCOT during the holiday season, don’t sleep on this ride — it’s been updated with some holiday fun. Living with the Land rarely has super long lines, and it’s a nice, relaxed boat ride that will give you a break from the chaos of the park.
