Disney Unveils Exclusive Peek at EPCOT’s Luxe Adults-Only Lounge Experience
Walt Disney World is always evolving. Whether it’s reimagined attractions, limited-time festivals, or updated dining experiences, the theme parks continue to surprise guests with new offerings that cater to a wide range of interests. EPCOT, in particular, has undergone a significant transformation over the past few years, leaning into innovation while honoring its original spirit of international culture and futurism.
But one upcoming addition has sparked special interest among a particular crowd: adults who love Disney.

For years, fans have debated whether there should be designated “adults-only” spaces in Disney parks—quiet corners where guests could escape the hustle, noise, and energy of kid-focused attractions. While Disney has remained a family-first destination, it’s also no secret that adults make up a significant portion of parkgoers, many of whom visit without children.
Now, EPCOT is on the verge of unveiling something designed specifically for them.
Opening June 4, Disney will debut GEO-82, an adults-only lounge tucked inside the iconic Spaceship Earth. While the new location isn’t open to the public just yet, Disney has officially offered guests a sneak peek inside the exclusive venue—and reservations are currently available.

The announcement of GEO-82 caused a stir among Disney fans when it was first revealed. The concept: a sleek, upscale lounge open only to guests aged 21 and over. Some welcomed the idea, thrilled to see Disney embracing elevated experiences tailored for grown-up visitors.
Others questioned the idea of limiting access within a theme park built on inclusivity. Still, for those seeking a refined, adults-only atmosphere, GEO-82 promises to deliver something entirely new.
With alcohol now a standard offering in all Disney parks (a far cry from Walt Disney’s original intention of keeping booze out), EPCOT has long been considered the park of choice for adult-friendly beverages. From wine flights at the France Pavilion to the famous tequila bar inside Mexico’s pyramid, the park is a top destination for those who enjoy sipping around the world.

GEO-82 builds on that legacy, offering craft cocktails and elevated small plates in a stylish and intimate setting.
While reservations are required to access GEO-82, Disney recently released an early look at the interior space — and it’s stunning. Nestled inside Spaceship Earth, the lounge is designed with soft lighting, contemporary furnishings, and panoramic windows that provide breathtaking views.
According to Disney, the menu will feature a range of creative drinks and dishes such as Truffled Ahi Tuna, Jumbo Lump Crab Gâteau, Brown Butter Old Fashioned, and the Brulée Banana Highball.
One of the most anticipated features of GEO-82 is its Luminous fireworks experience. In the evening, lounge guests will be treated to a private fireworks viewing from GEO-82’s large windows, complete with champagne, specialty cocktails, and sweet treats served tableside. It’s a curated experience meant to elevate a typical night at EPCOT into something unforgettable.
Disney has confirmed that access to GEO-82 comes at a premium: $179 per person. This includes entry to the lounge, the evening fireworks package, and a menu of bites and beverages. Guests must be prepared to show valid ID to verify their age.
The lounge has not yet opened, and reservations are currently being accepted ahead of the June 4 debut. As with many high-demand experiences at Walt Disney World, availability is expected to go quickly, especially for those hoping to be among the first to visit the exclusive new space.
