EPCOT's Guest Relations to close for refurbishment as work continues on World Celebration

Posted: Wednesday March 16, 2022 12:55pm ET by WDWMAGIC Staff

EPCOT's Guest Relations building near to Spaceship Earth will close next week as the redevelopment work in the center of the park continues.

EPCOT's guest relations has remained untouched so far but that will soon change

The closure will begin on March 22 2022, with a planned reopening at the end of April 2022.

During the closure, Guest Relations will temporarily relocate to the former Gift Stop on the western side of the main entrance ticket booths. (The right side as you face Spaceship earth.)

Gift Stop closed in 2020 and will now become the temporary Guest Relations

The current Guest Relations building is surrounded by construction walls, and has so far remained largely untouched as the surroundings have all been updated.

This old sign will likely be gone as part of the updates to Guest Relations

They didn't learn from their mistake by adding a dj at the end of the night by the MK train station in 2021..

The DJ music badly clashes with the generally-sophisticated holiday atmosphere everywhere else in the park. Save it for NYE.

Yeah Encanto show is fine, but the DJ thing gotta go. It just pollutes the atmosphere vibe of Epcot. Calling it World Celebration isn’t an excuse. Just doesn’t belong.

We've been by it too in the past two weeks and if nothing else, it shows how management and WDI have no clue as to what the EPCOT is. They keep throwing darts at the board looking for something to land, but my goodness, the place is so disjointed. Rave Mickey is something to behold outside Communicore Hall. Or as my mom said (about Communicore) after she first went in, "This garbage isn't worthy of being in SeaWorld, let alone Disney." Yup. Rave+Lame=MKCOT. Great job, Bob!

I like the daytime Encanto show. It's Disney. And fun. And good music. But, I hereby condemn the Christian rock band that can't hit their notes and the late night Latino Pop DJ who's not even playing Christmas songs and whose music clashes with the SSE 'shows.' But far be it from me to criticize anything modern Disney does.

My parents and I hate this dumb party center thing. It really sinks in at night when you have the Epcot holiday loop playing by the planter but then you got the thump of bass coming from one side of the park. It actually sucks and worsens the area. And seeing CC Hall for the first was hilarious. They really could've refurbed half of the old CC West building and have a more exciting overhaul then this dumb thing there. And no, the egg table building still would've been much worse.

It's even worse in person.

Good god, that is awful. Not to mention, possibly causing epileptic seizures (something I am always aware of, since my sister has epilepsy). Reminds me of that ridiculous DJ they had at the MK. 🤢
