Where To Find the FIRST Holiday Decorations in EPCOT

By Robin Burks Leave a Comment

It’s that weird time of year when we’re still celebrating Halloween, but the holiday season has already started to appear in Disney World.

EPCOT

So far, we’ve seen LOADS of new holiday merchandise in Disney World, but we’ve also seen holiday decorations in both Disney’s Animal Kingdom and Disney’s Hollywood Studios. Now, EPCOT is getting in on the holiday decor action!

So we were just wandering around in World Showcase and found ourselves in the France Pavilion (mmmm…did someone say crêpes?) and looked up to see…a GIANT SNOWFLAKE.

That is a snowflake…

There are a few giant snowflakes in the area, which can only mean one thing — Yep, the holidays have arrived in France!

Snowflakes!

So, technically, we can say it’s snowing in EPCOT now, right?

The holidays are here!

Last year, it seemed like we had to wait FOREVER to see holiday decorations in EPCOT, but this year, it looks like they’re getting an early start! So be sure to look up if you’re visiting the France Pavilion this weekend!
