PHOTOS: ‘Moana’-Inspired Attraction Takes a BIG Step Forward in EPCOT

By 1 Comment

There’s a lot going on at EPCOT! Connections Cafe and Eatery have been undergoing soft openings, (with an official opening date set for this Wednesday, April 27th!), Guardians of the Galaxy: Cosmic Rewind is set to open next month, and there are a lot of other ongoing construction projects happening at this park.

EPCOT has been going through some big changes!

One of those ongoing construction projects is Journey of Water — inspired by Moana.

By 3 Comments

Doesn’t it feel like we’ve been talking about EPCOT’s Transformation for YEARS? Well, that’s because we have been talking about all of the exciting projects in development at EPCOT for some time now — remember wayyy back at the 2019 D23 Expo when we first got a glimpse at all of those retro-inspired posters and Spaceship Earth model that once sat in the EPCOT Experience (the EPCOT Experience has since closed).
