New look for popular Morocco Pavilion social media photo spot

Morocco Pavilion reworked chimney
Posted: Tuesday April 27, 2021 8:50am ET by WDWMAGIC Staff

Construction walls were removed last week at EPCOT'S Morocco pavilion as Disney completes the small project to modify a social media photo spot.

Scaffolding and a work scrim have been removed around the construction area which contained a structure with a suggestive appearance when viewed from certain angles and poses.

The wall has now been modified to include a doorway and reshaped concrete.

Since taking over the pavilion from the former third party operating participant, Disney has been making small modifications, including a new menu at Spice Road Table, some cosmetic changes to the Gifts of Morocco store, and currently refurbishing the bathrooms.

I think just general maintenance, almost every world showcase pavilion has been touched up over the last year.

I'm not entirely sure, but here's the news article from @wdwmagic when the walls went up. https://www.wdwmagic.com/attractions/morocco/news/25mar2024-large-section-of-epcots-morocco-pavilion-goes-behind-refurbishment-walls.htm

Warren Zevon is one of the best ever.

The company who were running it when Covid caused the parks to shut went bust.

The company who operated went bust? I thought it was the country backing out, but that seems not to make sense since the Morocco Pavilion is the most authentic built by them which they would be proud of to continue. If it's all to do with one of the run companies can't Morocco have another run it?

well, some other country star had a pretty big hit covering 'Lawyers, Guns, and Money' so I imagine it makes sense to tap into his works ;)

Eh… that seems to be a very one-sided way of telling that haha. Ideally, Disney would see the value in having the countries represented well. Compare the shops of China and Japan to Canada for example.

Didn't realize it was a cover...those crazy Canadians :p

sorry, Warren Zevon fan, seems she changed a couple of words when she covered it
