New Signs Are Up At EPCOT Communicore, Mysterious Globe Appears

What is that globe in Epcot? Communicore Opening Date and more…

Today on my visit to EPCOT I noticed that some of the walls have been pushed back in World Celebration Gardens.

Disney has announced that the rest of EPCOT will officially open on June 10, 2024, including Mickey and Friends, Communicore Hall, and Communicore Plaza.

Also, a mysterious new globe appeared. Let’s check it out…

MIckey and Friends signs have been installed. The construction walls have been pushed back as well, making the sidewalk wider.

Mickey and Friends” is where you can meet popular Disney characters in Epcot.

Communicore signs have been installed. Some of the walls here have been pushed back as well.

Disney has announced that Communicore Hall will be the starting point for Epcot’s international festivals like Food and Wine, Festival of the Arts, and Flower and Garden.

Communicore Plaza will be an outdoor area where guests relax. There will also be areas for large-scale concerts and small performances.

The canopy has been installed over Communicore Hall. I assume this will be where a lot of the concerts will be held.

Once the walls come down, you’ll be able to walk from one side of the park to the other easily.

Mickey and Friends is now lit up at night, giving us a better idea of how Communicore will tie in with the World Celebration Gardens and Spaceship Earth.
