Why You Might NOT Be Able to Ride EPCOT’s Guardians of the Galaxy Ride on Its Opening Day

EPCOT will soon have a BRAND NEW ride for guests to enjoy. But if you’re hoping to go for opening day, there might be a problem.

It’s Almost “Save the Galaxy” Time!

Guardians of the Galaxy: Cosmic Rewind opens in EPCOT on May 27th — that’s just a few weeks away! We’ve seen all kinds of sneak peeks at the ride, its queue, its soundtrack, and more. But there’s something that could keep you from seeing it on its opening day.

If you want to get into EPCOT (or any Disney World theme park) any day of the year, a Park Pass reservation is required in addition to your ticket. That holds true for the opening day for Guardians of the Galaxy: Cosmic Rewind.

Park Passes for EPCOT on May 27th had been filling up for select guests, and then select Park Passes were refilled. Now, things have changed again.

If you don’t already have your Park Pass for EPCOT for May 27th, you could potentially still get into the park by Park Hopping (provided you have a ticket with Park Hopping abilities).

Note, however, that Park Hopping is limited based on availability. In the past, we have seen some parks fill up and NOT be available for Park Hopping. This has only happened on rare occasions, like the 50th Anniversary, but it’s possible it could happen again.

Disney also hasn’t shared whether the Guardians of the Galaxy ride will utilize a virtual queue or anything else which could further complicate your ability to ride if you aren’t able to get there at specific points in the day.

Of course, Park Pass availability can change! Be sure to check for updates as the date gets closer. And check back with us here at DFB for all the latest Disney news!
