The walls are down and the multiyear transformation of EPCOT is finally complete! CommuniCore Hall and CommuniCore Plaza in the new World Celebration neighborhood have opened to guests.

In summer 2024, guests can dance and sing along to the música of the Disney Animation Studios film “Encanto.” “¡Celebración Encanto!” is a limited-time show that celebrates culture, magic, and family, or as the Family Madrigal would say, “culture, magia y familia.” This is the first show to debut on the newly completed CommuniCore Plaza Stage.

Right next to CommuniCore Plaza Stage, a new quick-service food-and-beverage destination called “Festival Favorites” offers guests a rotating menu of some of the most popular items from the four seasonal EPCOT festivals and is a place to relax and recharge. Finally, Mickey & Friends, a new location adjacent to CommuniCore Hall, is where guests can meet some of their favorite Disney pals.
