food IS a theme park
Welcome back to EPCOT!
Spaceship Earth
We’ve been enjoying the Flower and Garden Festival, ringing in spring, and closely following all the construction around the park. But let’s check out what else is new!
Spring is in FULL bloom at EPCOT, and we just love to see it all.
We go to the parks every. single. day. So, we have ALL of the updates from the park. From new food to merch to spring break crowds, here’s what we’ve seen at this Walt Disney World park lately!
Welcome back, DFB friends! We’re here with another What’s New at EPCOT!
Welcome back to EPCOT
And, with the 2021 EPCOT Flower and Garden Festival kicking off tomorrow, we’ve got a lot of spring updates to share with you! So, what are you waiting for? Let’s jump right on in!
Hello, DFB Friends!
Journey Into Imagination with Figment
We’ve been to EPCOT, walked around World Showcase, and checked anything and everything out that’s new! So here are all the latest updates.
After so many stops into the shops in Disney World, you start recognizing the same things over…and over…and over again.
Mitsukoshi Department Store
But, if you’re looking for the most non-Disney store at Disney World, you can head over to Mitsukoshi Department Store in EPCOT’s Japan Pavilion. The store is filled with unique gifts like peach rice cakes, strawberry Kit Kats, and cool color-changing shirts. We’ve even spotted some Animal Crossing plushes (it is Disney after all) and we found ANOTHER video game-inspired item on our visit today!
We spotted some interesting new finds in EPCOT today!
Japan Pavilion
The World Showcase is home to fun snacks, gorgeous views, and exciting upcoming attractions! But if you take the time to walk around the stores in each country, you’ll find some truly unique items for sale. That’s exactly what we did in the Japan Pavilion today…and it led to a fascinating discovery!
Greetings from EPCOT, where everywhere you turn right now…
2021 EPCOT Festival of the Arts
… you’ll find a work of ART! The 2021 EPCOT Festival of the Arts is one week old today, so we’re exploring all the sights (and tastes!) of EPCOT’s first Festival of the year. But we’ve also got some new eats, drinks, and fun merchandise finds, so let’s hop right in! [Read more…]
It seems that crowds have lightened up at EPCOT this week!
EPCOT Parking Entrance
We’re headed into the world of exotic countries, good food, and Frozen Ever After. On our grand tour, we spotted a returning drink and some fun merchandise in the Japan Pavilion. Come see what EPCOT looks like with no running festivals and light crowds!
With the arrival of the EPCOT’s International Festival of the Holidays, there’s LOTS to see and do at EPCOT right now.
EPCOT Christmas tree 2020
But joyfully eating your way around the world isn’t ALL that’s new at this theme park. Oh, what more could there be? Well, we’re glad you asked!
Since we call ourselves a food blog, we have to try all kinds of snacks: the good, the bad, and the ugly.
Pumpkin Spice Pretzel
We remember those that were rather disappointing to the eye, like the Pumpkin Spice Pretzel and the Poor Unfortunate Souls Float (the original with black raspberry soft serve). There are even a few “gross” Disney snacks that we actually recommend trying, like blue milk and Beverly, but there are always those that we don’t really understand. No matter how we feel about the snack, we usually do our best to muster up the courage to try the unique ones, and that’s exactly what we did today with a new flavor of Kit Kat!
Our handy (and portable!) ebook guides make sure you get the best deals and can plan a vacation of a lifetime.
