Two distinct worlds, one park

EPCOT is split into two immersive realms, World Celebration, Nature, and Discovery, and the World Showcase. Explore the wonders of science and innovation in one half, then circle the globe through 11 culture-rich pavilions in the other.

Thrills meet imagination

From the high-speed launch of Guardians of the Galaxy: Cosmic Rewind to the whimsical flight of Soarin’ Around the World, EPCOT blends cutting-edge technology with Disney storytelling for rides that thrill and inspire.

A taste of the world

Sample global cuisines without leaving Florida. Whether it's sushi in Japan, pastries in France, or tacos in Mexico, the World Showcase offers authentic flavors and unique culinary experiences from around the world.

Festival magic all year round

Time your visit with one of EPCOT’s seasonal festivals, like the Flower & Garden Festival or Food & Wine Festival, and enjoy themed décor, special performances, and limited-time food and drink offerings.

Things to know before booking your ticket

  • EPCOT 1-Day Ticket is ideal if you’re focusing only on EPCOT and want a full day to explore rides like Guardians of the Galaxy: Cosmic Rewind, World Showcase, and seasonal festivals without park-hopping.
  • WDW 1-Day Park Hopper lets you visit multiple parks in the same day (Magic Kingdom, EPCOT, Hollywood Studios, Animal Kingdom). Best for short stays or travelers wanting to experience top attractions across parks.
  • WDW 2-Day Tickets give you flexibility to visit two parks over two days (consecutive or non-consecutive). You can upgrade to include park hopping or add water park/sports access.
  • Multi-Day Tickets (2–10 Days) are perfect for longer stays. Visit one park per day at your own pace and upgrade later if you want park-hopping flexibility.
  • Multi-Day + Water Park + Sports (Hopper Plus) offers the most value for families and longer vacations. You get multi-park access plus entry to a Disney water park or sports experience like mini golf or ESPN Wide World of Sports.
  • With Park Hopper tickets, you can move between parks in the same day (subject to park operating hours). Always check current park schedules in advance.
  • Water park and sports experiences are only included if you choose Hopper Plus or the Multi-Day Water Park & Sports ticket. Standard and regular Park Hopper tickets do not include these.
