On Monday, Disney Parks Blog revealed some new details about the adults-only lounge coming to Spaceship Earth at EPCOT. The drinking and dining location is scheduled to open later this year.
Walt Disney World Resort first announced plans for two attraction-themed lounges at D23 Expo 2024: a Spaceship Earth lounge to take over the former Siemens lounge above Project Tomorrow and a Pirates of the Caribbean-themed lounge in Adventureland at Magic Kingdom Park. Construction crews are hard at work on both locations, which are expected to open sometime in 2025.

As the opening dates loom, Disney has provided sparse details about the new lounges. But on March 17, Walt Disney World Resort announced the name of the new EPCOT lounge: GEO-82.
“Can you name a place at Walt Disney World where you can spend an elegant time indulging in modern cocktails, taking in views of sprawling World Celebration gardens and World Showcase Lagoon from inside a world-famous icon?” said Mallory Heinz Ladet, a Public Relations Manager for Disney. “I can – and that place is GEO-82, the all-new lounge coming to EPCOT.”
The name takes inspiration from Spaceship Earth’s iconic geometric sphere and the year EPCOT opened: 1982. According to Disney Parks Blog, the lounge will feature themed decor inspired by the architecture of Spaceship Earth.

“This lounge will be the ultimate spot to toast to a trip around EPCOT with innovative cocktails and globally influenced small plates while you take in spectacular park views,” Ladet continued. “With this new lounge, you’ll feel like you’re discovering an all-new part of Spaceship Earth – GEO-82 will surround you with iconic shapes and intricate structures inspired by the park’s instantly-recognizable icon. You’ll sit amid rich textures and warm, metallic tones that echo Spaceship Earth in an elegant and intimate setting.”
Disney also revealed that GEO-82 will be adults-only (21+) and require advance reservations as “space is extremely limited.” According to Walt Disney World Resort’s website, the lounge will not accept the Disney Dining Plan.

Disney Parks Blog didn’t announce an exact opening date for GEO-82 but promised that more information about the lounge and its “delicious drinks and bites” is coming soon.
