The Virtual Queue Didn’t Fill Up As Quickly As Expected for Guardians of the Galaxy: Cosmic Rewind in EPCOT

Today is the day, people!!!

Cosmic Rewind

We’ve rewatched the movies, listened to the soundtrack, and mentally prepared ourselves because Guardians of the Galaxy: Cosmic Rewind at EPCOT is officially open! This non-stop entertainment-filled attraction has been in the works for years, and guests can now enjoy all that it has to offer — IF they can get a boarding group or a Lightning Lane. That might prove to be rather difficult, as boarding groups for Cosmic Rewind were gone FAST this morning! But honestly, not as fast as expected.

Guardians of the Galaxy: Cosmic Rewind is using the virtual queue system, which means that EPCOT guests typically have 2 chances daily to join the queue using the My Disney Experience app — the first at 7AM and the second at 1PM. There is one BONUS opportunity for those who are eligible for Extended Evening Hours on select nights at 6PM as well.

On the morning of opening day, we noticed that boarding groups didn’t fill up until about 7:20AM, which was quite shocking. We anticipated that they would fill up much more quickly than that! But this could be due to the fact that others anticipated that and instead decided to purchase a Lightning Lane, which did sell out more quickly.

Still open at 7:20AM

Once we booked, our estimated call back was for mid-afternoon and we were told our wait in line would be around 30 minutes once our group was called.

When Rise of the Resistance first opened with the virtual queue system, boarding groups were often sold out within seconds. So, we will continue to monitor the situation in the coming days, weeks, and months to give you the details on what your plan should be the morning you are trying to get on Guardians.

For now, keep this in mind if you’re heading to EPCOT soon to experience this exciting new attraction, and click here for more details on the virtual queue for Cosmic Rewind.
