La Poutinerie Set to Open in EPCOT’s Canada Pavilion on July 1

Air Canada is sponsoring the new quick‑service kiosk and linking Aeroplan perks to the pavilion as crews apply final stonework and roof touchups.

Overview

  • Walt Disney World published La Poutinerie’s full menu and confirmed a Canada Day opening on July 1, 2026, turning the former Refreshment Port into a dedicated poutine-focused location.
  • The new concept is developed in partnership with Air Canada and will include airline branding and Aeroplan member benefits tied to Walt Disney World experiences.
  • The Refreshment Port closed in January 2026 for what Disney first called a refurbishment before the months-long conversion into La Poutinerie was revealed.
  • On-site work has moved into finishing stages in mid-June with crews applying hand-laid decorative stone to the chimney, a freshly repainted gray roofline, and signage still pending before the debut.
  • The opening formally absorbs the kiosk footprint into the Canada World Showcase Pavilion, expanding the pavilion’s presence along that stretch of World Showcase and shifting available quick-service offerings there.
