It’s a big day at EPCOT!
The park is hosting the Walt Disney Company’s 100th Anniversary, Journey of Water, Inspired by Moana has officially opened, and a new park map has debuted. The new park map has some additions that were to be expected — descriptions and illustrations of the new attraction, along with an icon to mark the new Moana meet-and-greet. But one tiny detail has us wondering if Disney is confirming something big about a dining location!
For the company’s 100th Anniversary, Disney opened four new bonus booths for the EPCOT International Food and Wine Festival — Char & Chop, Wine & Wedge, Bubbles and Brine, and Swirled Showcase.
Disney has confirmed that these booths would also be sticking around for the EPCOT International Festival of the Holidays, but one detail on the new park map might indicate something more.
Swirled Showcase, which took the place of Traveler’s Cafe (an old Starbucks location), now has its own listing under dining locations on the map!
Seeing as this is the only booth that has an official listing this way, could this mean that the booth is sticking around for longer than the Festival of the Holidays? Since it is set up in a building that was a more permanent structure than the usual Outdoor Kitchens, we could be seeing Swirled Showcase for a bit longer than anticipated.
When we talked to a few Cast Members today, none of them had any information for us about what this could mean. We’ll keep an eye out for any updates about this spot, so stay tuned to DFB for more!
