Remy's Ratatouille Adventure at Epcot near Lake Buena Vista Resort Village & Spa

Walt Disney World’s EPCOT

What makes EPCOT® a fan favorite when visiting Orlando, is its World Showcase and the festivals it hosts throughout the year. Because of the World Showcase, you can travel the world without a passport or plane ticket. There are eleven countries surrounding the World Showcase Lagoon, where guests can shop, dine, and walk the beautiful scenery.

Some Things You Should Know

To visit the park, you need a valid park admission, then you have to make a park reservation using their Disney Park Pass system.
Pack some ponchos for you and your group. It rains a lot in Florida, and some rides may close until the rain and lightning subsides.
Keep hydrated! Pack water bottles, buy water or ask for a cup of water from one of their many restaurants.
Disney is strict with safety, if a child doesn’t meet a ride’s height requirement they will not be allowed to board, even if they’re only 1/2 an inch short.
At 9:30 PM, catch the Harmonious Fireworks around the World Showcase Lagoon. This 20-minute presentation will show stories on floating giant screens, music, moving fountains, and lasers in a 360-degree view.
