Epcot Space-Themed Restaurant to Open Later This Year!

Disney Parks have been dropping relatively small, but exciting updates on their blog recently! On Friday, they announced the space-themed restaurant next to the Mission: SPACE attraction in Epcot will open later this year. See the post on the Disney Parks Blog.

With overall crowds increasing at Walt Disney World for the opening of Star Wars: Galaxy's Edge, we believe that Disney is planning to get this restaurant in full swing before the week of Thanksgiving, if not earlier. Holiday crowds will likely start arriving Saturday, November 23, with the typical dip in attendance in early December before picking back up again through early January.

Patina Restaurant Group will operate the restaurant; they currently run seven restaurants in Walt Disney World including Via Napoli in Epcot, The Edison in Disney Springs, and Morimoto Asia in Disney Springs.
