Welcome back to EPCOT!
EPCOT
The Flower and Garden Festival is currently happening in the park and will be around until July 5th. We’ve already tried everything at the festival and have our best-of-the-fest list ready so you know what to grab when you visit. But there’s so much else happening in the parks too — come with us to check it all out!
EPCOT Food Updates
As we mentioned earlier, the EPCOT Flower and Garden Festival is in full swing in the park, meaning there are TONS of different food items to try!

Although the festival has started, we noticed that the Butterfly Garden is still under construction.

We’ve also got some updated photos of the construction walls in Mitsukoshi in the Japan Pavilion.

The Maple Popcorn Stand in the Canada Pavilion is also sporting a new look!
We like it!
Progress is coming along very well over at Journey of Water, Inspired by Moana! More specifically, it looks like some new stones have been placed where they’re currently building.

Over at Communicore Hall, we noticed some new tent-like structures. While it’s not totally clear what they’re for just yet, we love seeing any progress in this area.
See those tents far off in the distance?
And lastly, over in the Eve parking lot, the paving is almost complete!
