EPCOT fans will be able to visit the completion of the World Celebration Neighborhood in late 2023. Featuring a “lush, green space for you to relax, plus the opening of Communicore Hall and Communicore Plaza, this central location in the park will be the new home for festivals and the perfect space to gather with family and friends<” Disney’s blog announced. “It will also be home to Dreamers Point, an inspiring new area where you can view the new Walt Disney statue called ‘Walt the Dreamer.’”
In the World Nature EPCOT neighborhood, Journey of Water, Inspired by Moana, will also open in late 2023. The new exploration trail will allow guests to learn about the story of water on our planet and will be able to interact with it throughout the attraction.
