Walt Disney World has revealed the opening date and some menu items for GEO-82, the adults-only lounge that will operate from inside Epcot’s Spaceship Earth. The space will debut for the public on June 4, the company announced Monday.
Aside from the food and beverage, a talking point of GEO-82 will be view of the theme park’s World Celebration Gardens and potential landing spot for Luminous: The Symphony of Us nighttime spectacular. The resort is offering an add-on “fireworks experience” as part of the Enchanting Extras Collection, which also launches June 4. Reservations are required for GEO-82, and they will start being accepted May 6.
Among the food items on the menu will be cannellini hummus, funghi flatbread, jumbo lump crab gateau, truffled ahi tuna and a chef’s selection of cheeses and meats.
Featured cocktails on the menu include brown butter old fashioned, caramelized leek martini, high brow batanga, strawberry-black pepper sour, banana brulee highball, a select bourbon flight exclusive to Disney and more. There will also be beer, wine and zero-proof cocktails available.
The paid fireworks experience includes a private table beside the window, Champagne, light bites before “Luminous” and sweets during the show. The price is $179 per person, and theme park admission is required.
In addition, Disney World is working on a new pirate-themed tavern that will open in Magic Kingdom’s Adventureland. It will have family-friendly fare, Disney says. An opening date has not been announced.
