Epcot marked its 35th anniversary Sunday doing what it does best: looking to the future. Against the backdrop of its iconic Spaceship Earth, Disney\u2019s theme park that celebrates human achievement hosted ceremonies that reflected on 35 years of creativity and innovation. More important, the ceremonies shined a spotlight on an exciting future of new experiences and attractions.<\/p>\n

\"Epcot<\/p>\n

\u201cIt\u2019s been an amazing 35 years,\u201d said George A. Kalogridis, president of Walt Disney World Resort. \u201cAnd as we look toward the future, there is so much more on the horizon.\u201d<\/p>\n

Kalogridis was joined onstage by the patriotic Voices of Liberty ensemble and the Mariachi Cobre from the Mexico showcase \u2013 two acts that debuted when the theme park originally opened \u2013 as guests and cast members looked on. It was 35 years to the day \u2013 Oct. 1, 1982 \u2013 when Disney\u2019s discovery park opened its doors as the second theme park on Disney property.<\/p>\n

\u201cEpcot has always been, and always will be, an optimistic celebration of the real world \u2013 brought to life through the magic of Disney,\u201d he said. \u201cI promise you the exciting plans we have on the horizon will honor Epcot\u2019s rich legacy of creativity and innovation while continuing to exceed the expectations of our guests, for decades to come.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe spirit of the expansion will continue to evolve Epcot to make it more timeless, more relevant, more family and more Disney, while staying true to its original vision.\u201d<\/p>\n

Already announced as part of the expansion are a new restaurant for the Mission: SPACE pavilion, inviting guests to travel high above Earth for an unforgettable dining experience; a Ratatouille-inspired attraction bowing in a new space in the France showcase; a new E-ticket Future World attraction based on the rockin\u2019 world of Guardians of the Galaxy; an updated Circle-Vision film for the China showcase showcasing the country\u2019s splendor and majesty.<\/p>\n

Epcot remains \u201ca place for family, a place for fun and a place for faith in our vision as a people,\u201d Kalogridis said. \u201cIt is little wonder that so many have fallen in love with this park and its story.\u201d<\/p>\n
