food IS a theme park
Epcot is currently undergoing a MASSIVE transformation and a lot of changes have started to take place.

Locations like Fountain View and Club Cool (bye-bye, for now, Beverly) have officially closed. And Epcot’s Character Spot meet-and-greet location has been relocated.
The first steps in the redesign of Future World in Epcot have begun!
World Celebration in Epcot
We’ve known for a few months that parts of Future World would begin closing September 8th, including Club Cool (we still love ya, Beverly!) and the Fountain of Nations. Other parts of Future World, like Electric Umbrella and Mouse Gear, will be closing in the coming months. Well, friends, we’re sad to say they wasted no time setting up for the impending construction.

Between Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge and Epcot’s huge transformation (and so much more), it’s safe to say the Disney theme parks are going through some changes. Amidst these, we have to say goodbye to some well-loved attractions, dining locations, and treats (whether for a temporary time or for good). But don’t worry, there’s still time to enjoy these experiences!
Magic Kingdom
Today we’re reminding you of 10 Disney rides and attractions you’ll want to see before they close. So grab your hankies and your plane tickets, my friends! It’s time to celebrate some last hurrahs!
Annnnnnd we’re back! Today, we have already shared that Epcot’s Character Spot is set to close temporarily on September 8th. (Don’t worry — you’ll still be able to see your friends in new Epcot spots!)
Welcome to Epcot!
We have also shared Disney’s plans for the closure of Electric Umbrella this winter. But now we are going to dive into even MORE closure and relocation announcements.
Attention, friends who have a fondness for fizzy drinks: the Coca-Cola Store Orlando Rooftop Beverage Bar at Disney Springs is offering refillable plastic Coke bottles and cups!
Refillable Bottle at the Coca-Cola Store
If you’ve ever wished the Walt Disney World-area Coca-Cola Store would offer a refillable cup, today is your lucky day. Now you can get your soda fix every time you stroll around Disney Springs. So how much does it cost and what drinks are available? We’ve got the details!
Jambo! Welcome back to Harambe Market at Disney’s Animal Kingdom, one of our favorite places for wild theme park snacks!
Harambe Market is truly an experience. Much like the rest of Animal Kingdom, the theming is spectacular, and you’ll feel like you’ve been transported to Storybook, Africa! This is a fairly new restaurant – you can check out our full review from last year’s opening here – and we love the set up.
As you can see from the entrance sign, the snacks here are a little different than what you’d find in the other three theme parks, and ordering is different, too. Each type of snack has a different window to order from: Chef Mwanga’s Ribs Shop, Kitamu Grill, Famous Sausages, and Wanjohi Refreshment (but we’re told you can order any item from any window except Wanjohi Refreshments, which only serves drinks).
