Disney fans preparing to experience Remy’s Ratatouille Adventure at EPCOT will soon notice a significant change to one of the park’s most beloved attractions. Starting November 10, 2025, the ride will undergo a short but impactful refurbishment, offering a revamped experience with exciting new updates, including the switch from 3D projections to 2D digital visuals. This update, slated to last until November 13, 2025, will enhance the visual clarity of the attraction while preserving the magic of the beloved “Ratatouille” film.
2D Visuals Replacing 3D Projections
The most noticeable update for guests will be the shift to 2D digital projections, which will replace the current 3D visuals that have been part of Remy’s Ratatouille Adventure since its opening. According to Disney, these new 2D visuals are designed to provide “clearer imagery,” offering a more refined and immersive experience for park-goers. The new projections will improve the overall clarity and quality of the scenes, from the journey through Gusteau’s restaurant to the final, thrilling chase sequence. “The 2D visuals are being implemented to provide clearer imagery, making the scenes more crisp and easier to enjoy,” Disney said in an official statement.
While the ride’s 3D projections were initially well-received when the attraction first opened in 2021, this new visual upgrade is part of Disney’s ongoing efforts to improve the guest experience and align the ride with modern technology. The shift to 2D will ensure smoother storytelling and allow for better animation, ultimately creating an even more enjoyable and seamless experience for visitors.
Enhanced Queue and Ride Atmosphere
In addition to the visual changes, the attraction will also receive enhancements to its queue and overall atmosphere. Disney has announced that new props and lighting upgrades will be added, further elevating the ride’s immersive elements. The queue, which plays an important role in building excitement and anticipation, will include new themed props, while lighting enhancements will create a more visually stunning and vibrant environment for guests waiting to board the ride.
Although Disney has not disclosed the specific details of the new props and lighting, fans are speculating that the updates will include even more elements inspired by the “Ratatouille” film. This is likely to include references to memorable scenes and characters from the movie that will add even more magic to the queue experience. Disney’s ability to update its attractions with new thematic features is a testament to the company’s commitment to providing fresh and exciting experiences, and the enhancements to Remy’s Ratatouille Adventure are sure to please guests.

The Refurbishment Schedule and Guest Impact
For those planning to visit EPCOT during the refurbishment period, it’s important to note that the attraction will be closed from November 10 to November 13, 2025. While this brief closure may disappoint some, the upgrades being made are expected to significantly improve the ride’s visual and immersive qualities, making the wait worthwhile.
During this time, guests can still enjoy many other attractions around EPCOT. Popular rides like Mission: SPACE, Test Track, and Frozen Ever After will continue to operate, and the World Showcase pavilions will be open for exploration. Additionally, visitors will be able to experience the 2025 EPCOT International Festival of the Holidays, which brings festive entertainment, seasonal food, and special events to the park.
When Remy’s Ratatouille Adventure reopens after November 13, guests will be able to experience the newly updated ride with 2D projections and enhanced queue theming, ensuring an even more magical journey through the world of Remy. The visual update promises to make this already beloved attraction even more stunning, bringing a fresh perspective to the experience while staying true to the charm of the original.
