New look for popular Morocco Pavilion social media photo spot

Apr 27, 2021 in "Morocco (Pavilion)"

Morocco Pavilion reworked chimney
Posted: Tuesday April 27, 2021 8:50am ET by WDWMAGIC Staff

Construction walls were removed last week at EPCOT'S Morocco pavilion as Disney completes the small project to modify a social media photo spot.

Scaffolding and a work scrim have been removed around the construction area which contained a structure with a suggestive appearance when viewed from certain angles and poses.

The wall has now been modified to include a doorway and reshaped concrete.

Since taking over the pavilion from the former third party operating participant, Disney has been making small modifications, including a new menu at Spice Road Table, some cosmetic changes to the Gifts of Morocco store, and currently refurbishing the bathrooms.

Marrakesh and the Bazaar need to reopen...Up the theme factor and really make that walk back through the pavilion an event. If anything, Spice Road Table has hurt the pavilion overall by diverting people away from wandering back to the bazaar and Marrakesh...Marrakesh need to be more of a spectacular thing to drive guests to the back....

Nadda. Though it’s kitchen is still fully functioning and used to prep all of spice roads food.

Is there any sort of rumbling about Marrakesh?? Had Spice Road today and it was great but just not the same level of quality, certainly not ambience either

They changed the menu though. It is not the same food as they had before. I am sad about this. The chicken shawarma was a must have for me every trip. Believe it or not, not a single restaurant in the city where I live sells it.

They were doing that for a bit but this summer it was open the whole festival gap

I thought Tangerine Cafe was closed between Festivals but I could be wrong.

Thank you so much!

It’s being operated by the festivals team but remains open with limited menu in between festivals. Epcot actually got rid of their ODV teams for FW/WS and now the outdoor stands and carts are all merged into festivals or other QSR complexes.

I really wish the Morocco quick service would fully reopen again. Isn't is just being used during festivals now? Or am I not correct about that?

While you’ll 99% of the time get a canned response, the email does get forwarded to the right people. It’s always worth writing GR. Guest.Services@disneyworld.com

At least they are still respecting it's lighting feature during the nighttime shows right? Or did they give up on that too? Incase no on knew of this.... https://forums.wdwmagic.com/threads/why-doesnt-moracco-or-norway-light-up-for-illuminations.187668/#:~:text=Master%20Yoda&text=EpcotGrl%20said%3A,in%20fact%2C%20be%20demeaning).

This is egregious. Disney dies a death by a thousand cuts.
