New GEO-82 Spaceship Earth Lounge Coming to EPCOT in 2025

A new Spaceship Earth lounge is coming to EPCOT in 2025 overlooking World Celebration and it looks amazing!

For over 40 years, Spaceship Earth has welcomed visitors to EPCOT as a shining beacon of optimism and hope. Now Disney is ready to open GEO-82, an adult-only lounge that will make its home on the backside of Spaceship Earth and offering amazing views of World Celebration.

(UPDATE) Disney has just released the entire GEO-82 Menu, instructions on how to book reservations, and info on a brand new fireworks viewing package giving guests incredible views of the Luminous: The Symphony of Us fireworks show. Keep reading below for more info…

This just-announced lounge is inspired by the stories, shapes, and enduring legacy of this timeless icon and we couldn’t be more excited for it!

The original announcement was made at the “Horizons: Disney Experiences Showcase” during the D23 Expo at the Honda Center in Anaheim, California, where Disney confirmed plans for the new Spaceship Earth lounge inside the location of the former corporate lounge.

Disney shared the first concept art for the lounge which takes inspiration from the geometric sphere, the zen space to gather and enjoy refreshments will be draped with rich textures and warm metallic tones, giving it a mysterious and elegant intimacy.

Whether you’re looking for an afternoon sip and snack or the perfect end to your EPCOT evening, you’ll want to take in the beautiful views of the World Celebration Gardens as well as the lounge, which takes inspiration from the iconic architecture of Spaceship Earth itself.  

It also looks like it will be a pretty sweet place to watch the EPCOT fireworks while enjoying a cocktail. The theming, fireworks-viewing and the potential cocktails are going to make this a must-try lounge when visiting EPCOT.

Just remember, GEO-82 is an “adults-only” lounge, which means it will be open only to guests 21 and older.

Menu (Food and Drinks)

Disney has just shared all info about what type of drinks and food will be served at the Spaceship Earth lounge. Just as we imagined, it has a wide variety of creative drinks (both alcoholic and non-alcoholic).

Some of the new sips to discover include the Brown Butter Old Fashioned, which will offer up a twist on a classic with brown butter-infused bourbon, and the Clarified New York Sour, which features culinary techniques that make a visually stunning cocktail.  

The small bites are also not to be missed while you enjoy your beverages, as these have been expertly crafted by the culinary team. These dishes feature flavors inspired by dishes from around the globe, including the decadent Jumbo Lump Crab Gâteau and the Truffled Ahi Tuna with aromatic umami flavors.

Let’s take a look at the whole menu:

GEO-82 Fireworks Experience

The best spots for watching the fireworks at EPCOT are traditionally around the World Showcase Lagoon, right up and close with the action. However, sometimes you don’t want to wait around for hours to reserve a spot and are looking for something easier.

As an alternative, starting June 4, 2025, the GEO-82 Fireworks Experience is offering a fireworks viewing party from the elevated location inside the lounge where you can watch the newest show, “Luminous: The Symphony of Us“, as well as enjoy some great food and drinks at the same time.

What’s included in the GEO-82 Fireworks Experience?

• Reserved Seat – Each party will be seated at a private table beside the window in GEO-82, perfectly positioned to enjoy the amazing views of Luminous: The Symphony of Us.
• Drinks – Champagne that’s specially selected by sommeliers at Walt Disney World Resort (or event-exclusive cocktails, if you prefer)
• Food – A tasting tower of savory light bites, available before Luminous The Symphony of Us begins
• Sweets – A selection of sweets during Luminous The Symphony of Us

Price & Reservations Info

• Cost – $179 per person, plus tax and gratuity
• Reservations – Advance reservations required
• Theme Park Admission – Required but not included. Park reservations may also be needed based on your ticket type.
• Age Requirement – Guests must be 21 or older and bring a valid photo ID.
• Check-In – Guests should arrive at GEO-82 60 minutes before the starting time of the fireworks show.

When is the Spaceship Earth Lounge Opening?

The Spaceship Earth lounge sounds awesome, but when can we expect it to open? Disney has announced that GEO-82 will officially open on June 4, 2025. Reservations are available beginning on May 6, 2025

Since the lounge is taking over an existing location and not being built from scratch, we don’t expect to see many construction delays and the project has moved along relatively quickly.

And when it opens, and we have a chance to try it out, we will do a full tour and review of all the food and drinks available. Given its optimal location, we can imagine it will end up landing pretty high on our list of the best Bars in Disney World once it’s finished.

We hope you enjoyed this look at the new Spaceship Earth Lounge.  Keep checking back here at Ziggy Knows Disney as we will be doing a full review of the restaurant once it opens.
