What’s New at EPCOT: Festival of the Holidays Booths, Disney Hand Sanitizers, and an Up Hoodie!
Hello from EPCOT!
The Taste of EPCOT International Festival of the Holidays will be starting in just a few days! But we couldn’t wait until then to make our way around this fantastic park. Join us as we walk around EPCOT to check out the new holiday booths that are already up, get an update on some drink options around the park, and check out some cool merchandise!
EPCOT Food Updates
Eats at the EPCOT Experience
Over at the EPCOT Experience, we stopped by the small snack spot inside called Eats at the EPCOT Experience, and saw that the Mango Beer previously available at this spot…
…was GONE!
We asked a Cast Member about it, and they said that the location will be getting something new, but they were not sure when. We’ll keep an eye out for any more drink updates from this spot!

Germany Pavilion — Weinkellar
If you’re still looking to grab some Mozart Chocolate Cream Pumpkin Spice Liqueur from Weinkellar in the Germany pavilion, you may be out of luck!
While we spotted the regular Chocolate Cream Liqueur available, we noticed that there was no more of the pumpkin spice!
We asked a Cast Member about it and they said they didn’t think they would be getting more in at this time. Of course, this could change in the future, but it may finally be time to hang up those pumpkin spice flavors and embrace all things peppermint and gingerbread for the holiday season (at least for now)!

Snack Cart Near Living With the Land
Over in Future World, at a snack cart near Living With the Land, we saw that the Frozen 2 sipper, which we got a little while ago…
…was finally added to the menu.
If you’re a big fan of this popular sequel and are looking for a way to add some magic to your experience while at EPCOT and once you’re back at home, you can grab this sipper cup right now!

EPCOT Merchandise Updates
Gateway Gifts
Over at Gateway Gifts, we found some of the adorable new hand sanitizers we had spotted earlier at Disney’s Contemporary Resort and Disney’s BoardWalk Inn. The ones we found at EPCOT were the Mickey Mouse, Minnie Mouse, Pluto, and Ariel designs.
These are priced at $9.99 each.

Mouse Gear
At Mouse Gear, we saw that the cute and comfy character Plaid Flannel shirts have made their way to this spot!
We’ll take one of each please!

We also spotted a new-to-us hoodie inspired by Pixar’s Up. On the front, the hoodie has those signature balloons from Up tied to Carl Fredricksen’s house, with the phrase “Adventure is out There!”
You can float away with this hoodie for $39.99.

France Pavilion
Over in the France pavilion, we saw that the Remy apron is available again at Souvenirs de France, the gift shop attached to Les Halles Boulangerie Patisserie, and actually ON SALE for $20.99.
Here’s a closer look at this adorable design!
We recently spotted quite a bit of Ratatouille merchandise available again in this spot, so if you’re getting ready for Remy’s Ratatouille Adventure to open up in the park in 2021, and want to grab some cute Remy items now, this is a spot you’ll want to check out.

We also noticed that the BRAND NEW France ears that we spotted here just a few days ago were already SOLD OUT!
We asked a Cast Member about them and they said they had no idea when the ears would be returning. Looks like these cuties were quite popular! We’ll keep an eye out for them to see if they eventually get restocked.

Annual Passholder Pop-Up Shop in Germany
The Annual Passholder Pop-Up Shop in Germany offered Passholders the chance to get some great deals and unique merchandise, but during this trip around World Showcase, we saw that the store had in fact closed.
The store was only set up to be open through November 17th, so it was a scheduled closure. But, Passholders aren’t done getting special merchandise opportunities. Passholders will soon get the chance to buy some EXCLUSIVE holiday merchandise in Magic Kingdom!

Other EPCOT Updates
Festival of the Holidays

Holiday Crowds
Finally, we also saw that the holidays crowds have started to arrive in EPCOT. And with Disney indicating that Thanksgiving week capacity is almost at 100% of the increased 35% capacity, that’s really no surprise.
If you haven’t already made your Park Pass reservations for your upcoming holiday trip, we definitely recommend that you do so as quickly as possible!
