EPCOT Construction Updates
Journey of Water — Inspired by Moana

CommuniCore Hall and Plaza
We’re going vertical over at CommuniCore Hall! The steel beams and supports are starting to form a large building that will eventually house EPCOT festival events and more.
CommuniCore Plaza will also be located in this area and will feature greenery and gardens, and more!
EPCOT General Updates
