What to do with coats at Epcot?

[lucas]

We are staying at the Contemporary and going to Epcot on 12/12. We will be there all day, going to the Candlelight Processional and dinner that night. Should we put our coats in the front lockers at Epcot? This could be a pain if we are in the back of the park and have to go all the way to the front to get the coats and then to the back again for the Candlelight Processional. What do you do with coats at Epcot? Thanks.

Tie them around your waist. Wear sweatshirts and layer them.

With Deb & Bill that is what we do most of the time.Unless our son is with us then we have him go to the locker for us,he's a good boy.

You can either tie them around your waist or just bring a backpack and fold them up and place them in there. That way it's handy when you need them.

I could be wrong, I'm not there right now. But I think there are lockers at the International Gateway.

another way of getting your coats in a backpack is with those gigando ziploc storage bags... I think they work on the same premise as the vacuum storage bags eliminating as much air as possible.

There are lockers at the International Gateway as well as at the front of Epcot.

Perhaps have one person run the coats to the IG locker area and then catch up with the group.

We either use a locker or bring a backpack.

they also have lockers at international gateway...we usually put our sweatshirts there mid morning when we were by imagination then got them when in ws at night. that was the easiest park imo

I always use the lockers at the International Gateway too. We always land in WS as it nears night and gets cooler. They are conveniently located to retrieve at that time of night.

there are lockers at international gateweay, but i really don't like using lockers at all. they tend to tie you to one location and are hard to plan around. i agree with the previous posters to wear a sweatshirt and then tie it around your waist.

wifey and i have disney hooded sweatshirts (she's goofy, i'm mickey) that we wear in cooler months and they are very warm and also comfy/light when tied around waist.

this also has the added benefit of using it as a pillow/shock absorber when riding spaceship earth.
