Something is missing at EPCOT!
Spaceship Earth
We’ve been going to EPCOT a lot for the Food and Wine Festival, and we noticed something was missing during our tour around World Showcase. We’re here to share all the details with you!
One of our favorite places to go to in the World Showcase is the Morocco Pavilion. They have good food during the festivals, and the pavilion runs deep with a lounge for you to relax in.

We recently made our way to the lounge and noticed a big change that had happened there. The Restaurant Marrakesh sign is officially gone!

Restaurant Marrakesh was one of Disney World’s most unique restaurants, making authentic Moroccan and Mediterranean food for guests visiting EPCOT’s gorgeous Morocco pavilion. The restaurant closed in March 2020, as the dining spot could no longer be maintained following the COVID-19 pandemic.
End of an era
Since March 2020, the restaurant has never reopened, and it looks like Disney World is beginning to phase it out. Interestingly, they still have the name painted on the side of the building. We’re thinking that it will be taken down fairly soon.

Who knows what’s in the plans for Disney and this building in the future? Right now, the inside of the restaurant is used for lounges, which change from time to time depending on the festivals. Sometimes the inside is used as an Annual Passholder lounge, and other times it is a lounge for all guests (like for Food and Wine).
