NEW attractions have finally opened in EPCOT! The transformation is finally complete! The new festival areas are officially open, and you can find a new quick-service restaurant, some relaxing seating, and a new meet-and-greet inside the new building.

Now, Amazon has just announced the end of a POPULAR show.
