Overview
- Walt Disney Imagineering filed a permit to “install set elements” at Refreshment Port and named Icarus Exhibits Inc. as the contractor, with no expiration date listed.
- Beige construction walls still wrap the kiosk near Swirled Showcase, and reporters note no visible changes above the barriers.
- The snack stand, known for poutine and soft-serve near the World Showcase entrance, has been closed since January 12 with no reopening date on Disney’s website.
- Disney’s calendar shows the location closed through May 9, and no Flower & Garden Festival menu has been announced, suggesting the closure could run through much of the event.
- The new permit indicates work that affects what guests see rather than routine maintenance, which could keep pressure on nearby booths that absorb the lost traffic.
