EPCOT Restores Morning High School Marching Bands After Pandemic Hiatus

The revival coincides with EPCOT’s construction wrap-up, creating room for renewed Imagination Campus appearances.

Overview

  • On-site reports say morning marching-band performances have returned to EPCOT for the first time since the COVID-19 pause.
  • The current format features three different high school bands most mornings, stepping off at The American Adventure and circling World Showcase Lagoon.
  • The appearances run through Disney’s Imagination Campus, offering students a milestone performance opportunity that often draws traveling families.
  • Disney has not provided an official rationale for the restart, with reporting citing construction completion, program expansion, or guest demand as possibilities.
  • Coverage describes the bands as adding early-day live energy without disrupting World Showcase’s typically calm morning atmosphere.
