EPCOT Reopens Moana Parking Lot After Monthlong Resurfacing

The restored Earth-side section eases arrivals during EPCOT’s crowded Food & Wine Festival.

Overview

  • The Moana section reopened to guests on September 27, 2025, following several weeks of work that began in late August.
  • Improvements include resurfaced pavement, refreshed striping, and updated signage consistent with EPCOT’s 2023 parking redesign.
  • The return of this area restores capacity and improves access for drivers seeking handicap-accessible spaces that had been redirected.
  • The timing coincides with heavy festival attendance and the debut of the “Gyozas of the Galaxy” booth inspired by Guardians of the Galaxy.
  • The coverage notes Disney is expected to continue staggered parking lot maintenance due to ongoing wear from weather and traffic.
