Walt Disney World’s Epcot celebrates its 35th anniversary this Sunday, October 1st, 2017. In celebration of the event “The Odyssey”, home of the Food and Wine Festival’s Craft Beers location, has transformed into a Celebration of Epcot’s 35 Years: “Celebrating the Past, Present and Future of Epcot”. Two Photo Galleries have been created celebrating World Showcase and Future World respectively. Including original concept art, current attractions and future attractions for both areas. The Guardians of the Galaxy, and a Ratatouille attraction in France; both were announced during the D23 Expo parks and resorts panel are the “Future” – so really nothing we haven’t heard before.
The Odyssey has been transformed into the Epcot Legacy Showplace, don’t worry Craft Beers for Food and Wine are still available
The atmosphere is incredible, featuring an EPCOT Center soundtrack, think Magic Journeys, Listen to the Land and Kitchen Cabaret. A looping slide show features images covering the full spectrum of Epcot’s history, from construction to modern day.
As they say, a picture is worth 1,000 words; with that, here is a quick photo tour of the Epcot 35 Legacy Showplace (located in the Odyssey).
Be sure to follow the Disney Nerds Podcast with much more from #Epcot35 this weekend!!!

The Disney Nerds Podcast Epcot 35 Legacy Showplace Photo Report
Sam has been visiting Walt Disney World since 1986. The spark from those early trips lead to an interest in the "How" and "Why" behind Disney Parks and Resorts and the thrill of discovering the history of how we got here today. That History is still being written. In addition to participating on The Disney Nerds Podcast you can find blogs at www.samsdisneydiary.com
Nice posting. I saw this exhibit while we were there for Food & Wine a week ago. It is so cool!
Loved the Music… and a flight of craft brews didn’t hurt!
