✨In celebration of Walt Disney’s birthday on December 5th, guests visiting EPCOT will be able to visit 𝑫𝒓𝒆𝒂𝒎𝒆𝒓𝒔 𝑷𝒐𝒊𝒏𝒕 in the newly-opened World Celebration neighborhood and see the Walt Disney Company’s original dreamer in a completely new light. Everyone is invited to imagine alongside Walt himself and look out over World Celebration Gardens together.✨
This new statue, entitled “𝑾𝒂𝒍𝒕 𝒕𝒉𝒆 𝑫𝒓𝒆𝒂𝒎𝒆𝒓”, represents Walt later in his life when he was dreaming up the overall Florida Project and the Experimental Prototype Community of Tomorrow. He sits with a sense of fulfillment, enjoying the beauty of his realized dream: a park that represents pure optimism and truly celebrates the magic of possibility.
This new statue of Walt is one of many areas to visit as a part of World Celebration Gardens where guests will be able to relax, unwind, and connect — to EPCOT, to nature, and to each other. Each of the gardens found in the center of World Celebration, including 𝑫𝒓𝒆𝒂𝒎𝒆𝒓𝒔 𝑷𝒐𝒊𝒏𝒕, will connect back to the areas surrounding them, drawing on the architectural legacy of EPCOT, modern lighting elements and a variety of natural textures.
𝑫𝒓𝒆𝒂𝒎𝒆𝒓𝒔 𝑷𝒐𝒊𝒏𝒕 is named not only for the dreamer who has and continues to inspire us but also for all of us who visit EPCOT every day to celebrate the endless potential and possibility of our world.
