What time do I need to be at Epcot so I don't have to wait 5 hours to see Anna and Elsa?

When are you going? They are moving to MK April 20th so if it's after that, you would have a VERY long wait at Epcot to see them

If it's before that, you need to either make an Akershus ADR for before park opening and have one adult either eat fast or skip the meal. Otherwise, you need to be at the Epcot gate around 40-45 minutes before park opening and literally sprint to Norway when the gates open.

If you are going before April 20th, you need to be there at rope drop and go straight to Norway.

If you are going on or after April 20th, you need to be at the Magic Kingdom at rope drop and go directly to Princess Fairy Tale Hall in Fantasyland. Or you can try to snag a fast pass plus for it.

Agree with everyone else, if you are going after April 20 get a fastpass or head straight for them at rope drop

Before then, honestly for us we wanted to stay together. We didn't end up seeing Anna and Elsa because waiting 3 hours was not how we wanted to spend out park time. At that time Anna and Elsa didn't start seeing people until the World Showcase opened, now I heard they do right at 9? So rope drop would probably be a good time OR I noticed right around dinner time waits were shorter (an hour and a half when we were there, unfortunately we had ADRs or I would have waited)

If you are going before 4/20, I have heard that within 10-15 minutes of rope drop the line grows to 5 hours in Epcot. So you probably want to get to Epcot pretty early so you are at the beginning of the entrance line, or wait until later in the afternoon. People are literally running to the m&g area when they get inside the park, so keep that in mind, too. I've also heard they cut the line some days if it's too long by like 4:00 or so, so probably try mid-afternoon to see how long it is.

I will be there Sunday and have an 8:10 Akershus ADR. I can let you know what happens after Sunday.

We went on a day with morning EMH. Got to the IG entrance a little before 8. Walked (not run) straight to Norway, got in line around 8:20. We were visiting with them by 9:40. They closed the 9 o'clock line a few people behind me & within 30 minutes the wait was over 4 hours.
