What’s New EPCOT: A New ‘Frozen’ Meet and Greet, TONS of Christmas Pins, and a HUGE Festival Merch Sale!
Oh, EPCOT… How do we love thee? Let us count the ways.
Spaceship Earth
We love thee for all the staples (Spaceship Earth, festivals) and for all of the NEW things. And hey, let’s see what IS new in jolly ol’ EPCOT!
EPCOT Food and Drink Updates
Regal Eagle Smokehouse
Summer may be a distant memory, but refreshing drinks are forever. Regal Eagle Smokehouse has a new alcoholic beverage option, the Frozen Iced Tea Lemonade, made with Tito’s vodka.

Technically, they could always add the alcohol of your choice to the frozen slushies (which also include Mint Julep and Strawberry Daiquiri), but they’re calling out the lemonade and vodka combo specifically with a sign.

House of Good Fortune
We’ve found a TON of interesting potato chips at EPCOT lately, and now the House of Good Fortune shop in the China pavilion has Lays Taro Chips!

We’ve been pleasantly surprised by EPCOT’s chips in the past, so these could be a winner too!
EPCOT Character Updates
We’ve seen them in cavalcades, but now our favorite Frozen queens are doing socially-distanced meet-and-greets and photo opps at the Norway Pavilion!
Anna in EPCOT
Like most character appearances these days, Anna and Elsa don’t appear on a set schedule.

So, next time you’re in Norway, who knows?! You could see a familiar face!
