Credit: Disney Disney World gave guests extra time to experience one of EPCOT’s most meaningful offerings in the lead-up to the Fourth of July holiday, but now the attraction has officially reached the end of its extended run. Earlier this year, Disney announced that “Portraits of Courage: A Commander in Chief’s Tribute to America’s Warriors” would remain open through the Fourth of July weekend as part of the resort’s celebration of America’s 250th anniversary.

A nice dinner, some shopping, maybe a drink at a rooftop bar. The outfit decision is casual by default, and for most of what Disney Springs offers, that is completely fine.

The resort itself is not closing, but an important roadway leading to the property soon will.

The first major sign that the EPCOT International Festival of the Holidays is approaching has arrived, as Disney Live Entertainment has officially begun searching for new performers to help bring the Candlelight Processional to life later this year.

Even longtime Walt Disney World visitors know that no two trips to Disney Springs are exactly alike.

Between admission, parking, food, Lightning Lane, and souvenirs, even a single day at the resort can become a costly outing for families. That’s why Disney’s newest ticket announcement is likely to grab plenty of attention—especially for those who live just minutes from the parks.

While thrill rides continue to evolve and entire lands transform around it, Walt Disney’s personal passion project has quietly remained one of Tomorrowland’s most recognizable experiences. Now, the attraction has officially closed for what may be its biggest overhaul in more than 30 years.

With Carousel of Progress officially closing for its latest refurbishment, Disney has already adjusted the attraction’s onboard narration.

Ever since the Norway Pavilion made its grand debut back in May 1988, the permanent lineup of 11 international nations has remained entirely frozen in time. Despite decades of massive, multi-million-dollar transformations sweeping across the front of the park, the global promenade has stood as an untouchable historical time capsule.
