Spaceship Earth's iconic triangles serve as the inspiration for the exterior design of EPCOT's 8,000-foot climate-controlled exhibit space, CommuniCore Hall.

The first of the glass triangle panels are now being installed, and will combine with embedded LED lighting to bring the building to life with colored light after dark.


The new venue will provide space for additional festival offerings that won't depend on Florida weather, which is also subdividable into two distinct sections.



CommuniCore Hall will also be home to an indoor Mickey and Friends character meet and greet.

The surrounding CommuniCore Plaza will feature a garden with space to view entertainment from a covered performance stage and seating for nearby festival food and drink kiosks.

World Celebration will open to guests in late 2023, but it remains unclear if CommuniCore Hall will be ready at the same time.

It was always showcased in the concept art as for Festival of The Arts...

It’s temporary but it looks well-done. What comes next is the bigger question.

Finally, this space has something worthwhile to see! Up to this point, this inside space has been an embarrassment of sorts.

Isn't it ironic that now "We've Just Begun to Dream" 🎶 not about the future of possibilities in 1982 but instead to Dream about how Epcot once was!

A beautiful tribute. RIP the “real” EPCOT.

An Arts festival would have been an ideal time to cover the walls in tapestries...
