The iconic EPCOT World Discovery playground is undergoing a green makeover! A fresh layer of grass has been laid, transforming this beloved play area at Walt Disney World Resort. But this renovation is more than meets the eye.
Since mid-January, the playground has been hidden behind construction walls, with rolling planters blocking the view. However, our eagle-eyed reporters spotted something intriguing: brand-new fabric shade structures, a welcome addition we recently covered. But here's where it gets interesting—this refurbishment seems more like a revival, and the question remains: when will the playground be ready for eager visitors?
As our team peered through the planters, they noticed several bare patches still awaiting their grassy blanket. This suggests that the refurbishment is a work in progress, and the reopening date is yet to be confirmed. While the new grass and shade structures are exciting, the full extent of the upgrades is still a mystery.
For those planning a magical trip to EPCOT, the Festival of the Arts is a must-see event, currently running until February 23rd. But will the playground be ready in time for the festival's finale? Only time will tell.
