Holidays and festivals
“back home” are commemorated. Indeed, it is
a rare opportunity for guests to be one among the locals.
World Showcase has an authentic Mexican
marketplace called Plaza De Los Amigos complete with lively
Mariachi bands and features paper flowers, sombreros, peasant
blouses, baskets, music and pottery. There is a 10th century
Viking Village of Norway.

at China’s “House of Whispering Willows”.
Heavy discount on World Showcase tickets. Germany
is a close neighbor with the recreation of the towns of
Rhine and Bavaria complete with German folk tunes in the
air and shops selling limited-edition steins, glassware
and crystal decanters and stuffed keepsakes from Steiff.
One of the more awaited highlights –
yes, they lit up for the right bright reasons – is
the nightly feature called "IllumiNations: Reflections
of Earth". |
The spectacular kaleidoscope revelry centered
around the World Showcase Lagoon features over 1,100 pyrotechnic
bursts and the extraordinary Earth Globe floating across
the lagoon. The fireworks, lasers and dancing fountains
choreographed in one blast of a display and fused with rousing
musical score creates a vibrant ‘eruption’ of
the sky and colorful sway of the lagoon.
Another anticipated Disney event in World
Showcase is the Epcot’s International Food & Wine
Festival. More than 100 wineries, breweries and cuisine
from around the world are featured in this annual global
culinary celebration -- or more aptly, a grand feast. You

event is also a global marketplace featuring retails of
local products, traditional foods and wines and brews. What’s
more exciting is the “open house” invite of
this great gathering: an Epcot admission is all that’s
needed to participate and be merry!
