Two new merchandise kiosks have taken up position in the new World Celebration Gardens at EPCOT.

The kiosks, which are not yet open, are located in the corner closest to Creations Shop.

While it was nice to have the area open and uncluttered, the arrival of merchandise kiosks should not come as a surprise. This area in the former Future World was littered with kiosks selling everything from sunscreen to Balzac.

World Celebration Gardens opened in December 2023, and while EPCOT is not yet wall-free, with walls remaining around Communicore Hall and Plaza, guests are now able to enjoy the gardens, see the new Walt the Dreamer statue at Dreamers Point, and walk directly between World Nature and World Discovery.

To me going to World Showcase was basically walking down Creation's Shop with a wall on the right. If you had to say go from East side or West side of Future World yeah you'd have to go to one end or the other. To leave the park in front you had a short cut exit on one side.

Zach Riddley and Charita Carter have been assigned "other duties"? 🤷‍♂️

They just "fixed" it, remember? They had a whole campaign that went on for years about how they were revamping the entire place. It resulted in a confusing mishmash with no clear goal and a ton of things that still desperately need work sitting there in plain sight, but from their perspective they just improved everything.

In other words not too different from the park today

MK currently has one major attraction down in Thunder Mountain, another C/D ticket is closing in August in Buzz Lightyear, and a moderate capacity play (Rivers of America / Tom Sawyer Island / Riverboat) are also expecting to close before the end of the year. This begs the question, why is Test Track the only overhaul / replacement / refurbishment currently going on at EPCOT? Spaceship Earth, Nemo and Imagination all needed to be refurbished 10 years ago.

I was referencing the joke I made above but yes I hated the walls. They made navigating the park a nightmare and were really really ugly.

Can’t be much worse than the fiasco that’s there now.

I sincerely hope not. It would dig up a lot of bad memories for me.

What are the odds construction walls go up in this area within the next year?

Seriously. They put all this nice soft lighting and music loop in the new hub, but then put a dj playing 2000s club hits with harsh lights next to it. I blame the morons who spend their time watching the dj instead of exploring world showcase. Paying all that money for an experience they could get for free at Disney springs. Or a local bowling alley
