food IS a theme park
Annnnnnd we’re back! Today, we have already shared that Epcot’s Character Spot is set to close temporarily on September 8th. (Don’t worry — you’ll still be able to see your friends in new Epcot spots!)
Welcome to Epcot!
We have also shared Disney’s plans for the closure of Electric Umbrella this winter. But now we are going to dive into even MORE closure and relocation announcements.
As many of you may know, Epcot is undergoing a pretty HUGE transformation, and as part of that transformation, a lot of familiar locations will be getting an overhaul. And beginning September 8, the popular Character Spot will close temporarily.

It’s no secret that Disney loves to release new popcorn buckets. Some are based on characters, like the Steamboat Willie Souvenir Popcorn Bucket we’ve seen in Magic Kingdom and Disneyland.

Some of our favorites include the Satu’li Canteen Bowls and the Lighthouse Sandwich from Columbia Harbor House. And now, Kusafiri in Animal Kingdom has added another healthy option to their menu.
