We love EPCOT at night — especially because of Spaceship Earth.
We could sit and watch the nighttime light shows on this ICON for hours! But now, a new Encanto-themed show is debuting in EPCOT — and Disney just dropped some NEWS about some new evening entertainment, as well!
We just got a preview of the all-new CommuniCore Hall and Plaza — which opened June 10th smack dab in the middle of EPCOT. And yeah, it’s looking gorgeous in the twilight, too.
Communicore Hall and Plaza are EPCOT’s new festival center locations. They will host EPCOT’s festivals throughout the year and bring some of the festival spirit to the center of the park.

This area is BRAND new
Communicore Plaza is an outdoor space where guests can enjoy some festival offerings, while Communicore Hall is described as a flexible space that can host a myriad of different events, like mixology classes and more!
We also got to experience ¡Celebración Encanto! — a new sing-a-long stage show on the CommuniCore Plaza Stage — for the first time! You can read all about it right here!
The show features two of the most POPULAR characters from Encanto — along with some energetic performers! If you’re looking for a place to sing and dance with little ones, this is a great spot to visit.
The Encanto show will be performed during the day in EPCOT, but we just learned about additional entertainment coming to this stage in the evenings!
Disney said we can expect to see Latin bands performing in CommuniCore Plaza during the evenings this summer, including this band — La Calle!

We do this because it’s important to us as journalists to ensure not only that we give you unbiased opinions, but also that you can trust us to do so since we’re paying our own way. On rare occasions, when we are invited by a company to attend a preview as media, and when we choose to accept that invitation, we will always make you, our readers, aware of that situation. Today, we were invited by Disney World to attend their media preview of CommuniCore Hall and Plaza. Note that when we attend events as media we are 1) Not required to review that event/food on any of our channels, and 2) Not required to review that event/food favorably. You can always count on DFB to give you a 100% unbiased and honest review of any event that we attend, food that we eat, or beverage that we drink. You can see more in our Disclosure Policy.
