My Disney Experience Shows Walk-Up Button for EPCOT’s GEO-82 Lounge

The visible but inactive button suggests Disney is preparing to offer same-day, app-managed queues that could make hard-to-book adult-only lounges easier to access.

Overview

  • A new “Join Walk-Up List” button appeared on GEO-82’s My Disney Experience page on Thursday, July 9, but tapping it currently returns a message saying availability cannot be searched.
  • Multiple Disney-focused outlets confirmed the button’s presence and its inactive state, and past app rollouts make it likely the feature will activate within a few days of first appearing.
  • When the function goes live, guests should be able to add their name to a same-day queue through the app, though joining the list will not guarantee immediate seating and reservations will remain available.
  • The Beak and Barrel at Magic Kingdom showed the same walk-up list button the same day, indicating Disney may be expanding app-managed same-day entry to other high-demand lounges.
  • GEO-82 is a 21+ lounge inside Spaceship Earth that opened June 4, 2025 and is known for curated cocktails and small plates, so the app change aims to ease guest access to a venue that often fills through advance bookings.
