What was old is new again. Or is it, what is new was once old? I don t know, but Epcot s classic entrance sculpture is now complete in the newly refurbished Epcot entrance plaza.
Walt Disney World and Walt Disney Imagineering are sharing photos of the new entrance plaza, which focuses on the three acrylic pylons that stood in front of Spaceship Earth when the park opened in 1982.

WDI s Creative Portfolio Director for Walt Disney World, Zach Riddley, wrote, One of the items I am personally so excited to reveal to the world is a brand new lighting design with color-changing capabilities! This is an entirely new idea, anchored by a brilliant center light that shines upward as a symbol of unity and optimism – themes that have always been at the center of this idea called EPCOT.
