As Part Of Epcot’s Park Transformation, Disney Might Have Confirmed EPCOT Name Change

During the 2019 D23 Expo, the new logo for Epcot was revealed. If you noticed, all the characters transitioned to all-caps. When Epcot first originally opened on October 1, 1985 it was originally known as EPCOT Center.

The name stood for the acronym Experimental Prototype Community of Tomorrow, inspired by Walt’s vision for a utopian city of the future. Other park name changes took place in the mid-’90s when the park became Epcot ’94, followed by Epcot ’95, and then just Epcot.

After the new EPCOT logo was revealed during last year’s D23 Expo, it has been featured in all of the park’s new merchandise and across the construction walls that have taken over the park’s landscape as part of its ongoing transformation.

If you look at a picture the new logo and park name were featured in the guidemap, transitioning from Epcot to all upper-case EPCOT.

Important Note: Disney has not “Officially” announced the name change and it’s still Epcot on their website.
