Disney4me Posted July 15, 2020 Report Posted July 15, 2020 Moments ago, we showed you what the crowd levels looked like at Disney’s Hollywood Studios, but now it’s time to get some perspective on what EPCOT’s like on the first day of ITS historical grand reopening! A Taste of EPCOT International Food and Wine Festival Not to mention, today is the first day of A Taste of EPCOT International Food and Wine Festival featuring more than 20 marketplace food booths scattered throughout the World Showcase. Let’s see who’s arrived to do some wining and dining! Since we’re staying at Disney’s Pop Century Resort, we took the Disney Skyliner over to EPCOT today. EPCOT has two entrances — the main entrance as well as a secondary entrance located at the International Gateway next to the World Showcase. Temperature Check Temperature and bag checks are set up at both entrances. We arrived at EPCOT right around 11AM this morning when the park opened. Although there was a little bit of a wait this morning, the socially distanced line moved pretty quickly at the International Gateway entrance. Line for Temp and Bag Check at EPCOT And once we passed through the checkpoint, we were welcomed by some World Showcase Cast Members holding flags from countries all over the world. It was pretty moving displayed and we might have gotten a bit misty-eyed. International Gateway And so far, the crowds have stayed pretty manageable. The World Showcase is by no means empty, but it hasn’t felt too crowded walking around in the open areas. World Showcase From our perspective so far, guests are doing a good job social distancing and spreading out while they stroll and shop. The festival merchandise booths are selling some of the Flower and Garden stuff we saw released last March! World Showcase And so far, there have been plenty of open tables for guests to enjoy their snacks and drinks at. Since the tables are socially distanced, you can temporarily remove your mask while you eat and sip when you’re standing at one. Tables We’re making out way over to Future World to check on the crowd levels over by Spaceship Earth next and we’ll be updating this post throughout the day so you can get a better sense of what the attendance is like at A Taste of EPCOT International Food and Wine Festival in the morning vs. the afternoon.
