The former EPCOT main entrance music still playing around the ticket booth area has now been removed.

The area at the very front of the park had continued to play the old main entrance loop until recently

When the new main entrance music debuted at EPCOT in March 2021, the previous music loop continued to be played around security and the ticket booths

The new main entrance loop now plays throughout the entire area, and as of last week, all the way into Future World East near to Test Track. Watch the video below for a quick listen to the area today.

The only remaining area playing old EPCOT Future World music is now Future World West.

The classic Innoventions music can still be heard in Future World West

Wait, now it looks like a cemetery?

I loved the palms, they are just so aesthetically appealing and complimented Spaceship Earth so well. Now, it looks like a cemetery.

The off balance trees are visually annoying I like the old thin palm tree look much more

And a ride update or at least a good maintenance update

SE also needs a good cleaning.

IMO, they can forgo the painting if they just replace the ragged trees that flank Spaceship Earth.

A thought occurred to me. In Zach and Co's lets re-create the original entrance as closely as possible project they forgot one tiny detail. Notice the red, black and blue paint scheme on the left and right? restoring that would make the new entrance perfect IMHO.

??? Totally agree about the staying on property. DH realized what a total inconvenience it was this past summer and that we really didn't save all that much (could've stayed at the Swolphin with 2-rooms for the same amount as the disgusting VRBO we rented that was 25 min. away...2mi my @$$). Part of the reason my mom and chose WDW for our "girls trip" this fall (and not Vegas or some other destination) is that it is quite accessible with a scooter and you can get around quite easily when staying onsite. In all our years of coming to WDW, we've stayed offsite 3x (once as newlyweds without kids, 1x with large extended family, and final time to appease DH, who finally saw the error of his ways)! 🤣

Well the alternative is to stay on property and dump the car… Which used to be just an option…but they’ve sold the place for quite awhile to not really want you if you aren’t at beach club. But I hear you on the distances/mobility. I always applaud Disney for getting ahead of the ADA wave and doing a really good job of designing for handicap access…but the reality is those parks were not laid out by walt/Eisner’s boys to accommodate…long pathways for “transitions” and to disguise show buildings are too much in the weather…wheels or not

I think for people with mobility-issues it is. A lot of times, even with handicap placards, the handicap spots can be completely full. This was our experience when we visiting this summer. Luckily we had rented a scooter and a big enough SUV to get the ECV and us all in that my mom didn't have to walk to far to the gate (she has congestive heart failure). Back in the day, when we had kids that we were renting strollers in the park, if we had to walk from the back-40 in without a tram, my kds would've been whining before we even hit security. Would've definitely put me in a mood before we even entered the parks. I won't even mention having to walk back to your car at the end of the day, especially if your waaaaaaay out there (and add a sudden rain squall that pops up as well). The trams help and do add a little bit of convenience (and a bit of magic to start and end your day).
