EPCOT is a massive theme park which can involve a lot of walking. To maximise your day at Epcot it is essential you have a plan. Here are our Top EPCOT Tips to get the most out of your day.
Consider Visiting on 2 Days
EPCOT is currently undergoing several renovations which has resulted in a number of closed attractions. However; the biggest challenge remains the sheer size of EPCOT. To navigate World Showcase still takes the best part of a day. Most guests will still struggle to complete the whole of EPCOT in 1 day.
If you have time visit on 2 days which will also make your Fastpass strategy easier.
Have a Fastpass Strategy
There are 3 big attractions in EPCOT:
- Frozen Ever After
- Soarin
- Test Track
Disney only lets you pick one of these Group A(also include illuminations) attractions in your initial fastpass selections. This presents a problem to anyone with only 1 day to visit EPCOT.
Frozen remains the most popular of all 3 and is the must-do attraction for most guests.
Soarin has recently had a 3rd theatre added which has reduced waits considerably. You will often find Fastpasses available after you have used your first selections.
Test Track has a single rider line. If you are happy not riding together choose this option if you don’t have a Fastpass.
Fastpass selections do fill up fast especially for Frozen. Make sure you know all the booking windows and book as soon as possible.
Eat in EPCOT
EPCOT is the centre for Disney World Cuisine. With restaurants from all around the world there is something that will appeal to everyone. However; restaurants do book up and it essential you have booked your reservations in advance.
Visit During the Food and Wine Festival

Have Rest Breaks

Avoid Extra Magic Hours
