'Walt the Dreamer' statue queue - December 5 2023
Posted: Tuesday December 5, 2023 11:30am ET by WDWMAGIC Staff

One of the longest waits in EPCOT this morning is for a photo with the new 'Walt the Dreamer' statue.



Cast Members are advising guests that the queue length is around 60 minutes as of 11:30 am.

The queue winds through a series of switchbacks behind the statue at Dreamers Point, in the newly opened central core of EPCOT in World Celebration.

Surprisingly, there is no Disney PhotoPass photographer today, although that seems likely to change in the future.

You must be new here… If they aren’t complaining, its a rarity.

Two new rides and a cessation of a Food Festival during the Summer. If that's evolution, they're doing it wrong.

It’s less of a complete park today than it was in 1998… Our standards need re-evaluated.

nah its still a great theme park, but with more food options...thats not a bad thing imo. Epcot always felt like the adult park where they focused on eating drinking and ambience more than rides and thrills. But they added a few great rides over the last years so its gotten a bit better in that regard as well

The continuing evolution of Epcot from a theme park to the world’s largest food court.

One would assume it’s a mishmash of things that sell really well (ie highest prices/margins) from the 345 days a year of festivals I’m not in love with it…but it’s also not the worst idea ever If they’re smart…big If…they rotate it seasonally to not cross with the festival booths…it’s a good idea. If it’s set stuff and they just push volume…not so much.

I’m hoping that they have the empanada that the Encanto booth has during Festival of the Arts. That is one of my favorite festival foods!
