Is Multi-pass Necessary for EPCOT?

[Sparrow'sLady]

EPCOT has so few rides, so I can see that from both sides. Few rides = longer lines for the few that exist, but also seems like it could be a waste of money and they would go fast because there are so few.

We do not ride Guardians, which is an ILL anyhow if I understand correctly.

When are you going? I did a LLMP a few days ago for HS and was still able to get every ride at Epcot for later afternoon on the same LL day. Wait times have been much lower recently but again that’s if you’re going soon. I think by showing up early you can get all the big ones (minus Guardians) done with minimal waits. Or if you’re a hopper then maybe try to do what we did and double stack two parks and really make it worthwhile.

We are going early December. We do not intend to hop. Just one park per day.

One good thing is you can wait till much closer to gauge how crowded it is from reports and decide then. If getting on both Remy and Frozen with minimal waits is important then maybe go for it. Getting there early in the morning you can do at least one of those two easily. I’m not a purchased of LLMP for Epcot. Just MK and HS and even recently less MK and just HS.

Wait until TT reopens to see what people’s experiences are trying to do three headliners in a day. We go at a slow time and valued skipping the hour long line for Remy (prebooked) and were able to get Frozen day-of. We also skipped over an hour of lines at other rides. For us, that was a worthwhile investment.

You’re absolutely right! EPCOT is definitely the Disney park that is super mature leaning and leans more on experience as opposed to riding.

I was able to get on over 3/4 of the rides that were open when I was there on 6/23. Definitely no need for Lightning Lane in my opinion even if it were busy to the rafters. I still ended up enjoying the park… especially with the DuckTales game guiding me around the World Showcase area.

On our recent trip, we used LLMP, but we parked hopped. If we didn’t hop, I would say EP would have been completely fine without LL.

We were at EC the middle of June. We did EE, but only got Guardians done during that time. Between 9a-5p, no LL:

Soarin
Nemo (waste, don't do, and it was a long wait)
Journey into Imagination
Spaceship Earth
Frozen (1hr wait)
Remi (1 hour wait)
Lunch
Family meet up

I can't imagine early December being more crowded, so I wouldnt worry about LLMP for that time.

Granted, Test Track was still closed, but we would have had time to do it.

Normally I would say it's not, but on busier days there's value in it. I was very glad that we bought it for the last day of our trip in May/June, which was the last day of Flower and Garden. It was super busy, like Nemo 45 minutes type busy. Unfortunately they decided to open Food & Wine during my next long weekend down so I am definitely buying it then.

I will say that on busier days don't necessarily count on being able to pull Frozen the day of as an additional LL. I saw it disappear during Early Entry, and Frozen is very hard to pull once it runs out as it typically doesn't see drops during the day, so you have to hope someone cancels. As a solo I'm going to prebook Frozen and just do Remy single rider.
