Greetings, Mark!
As a lover of
EPCOT, or maybe I’m called an EPCOT-er? EPCOT-ian? A citizen of EPCOT, or whatever we call ourselves, I’m elated to welcome you to planDisney! Thanks for stopping by with your excellent question for us.
Guardians of the Galaxy: Cosmic Rewind has quickly become my favorite ride in all the galaxy. There’s something so special about being able to rock out on an intergalactic chase while helping the Guardians of the Galaxy save the day!
Mark, I’m happy to tell you that you do not need a park reservation for EPCOT while purchasing your
Individual Lightning Lane entry for Guardians of the Galaxy: Cosmic Rewind. On the day of your park visit, you’ll want to visit your
My Disney Experience Mobile App and tap the ≡ icon. Next, you’ll want to select “Tip Board.” Then, you’ll choose Guardians of the Galaxy: Cosmic Rewind as your experience and follow the prompts to purchase it. You’ll also be given various times to choose from, and since you’re planning on
park hopping to EPCOT after 2 p.m., you’ll want to select a time to reflect that.
If you are a Guest of a
Disney Resort hotel, you can purchase your Individual Lightning Lane entry at 7 a.m. on the day of your park visit. If you are not a Guest of a Disney Resort hotel, you’ll be able to make your purchase when the park officially opens.
You’re going to have a blast; I especially love that there is a signature mixtape during your ride, and you don’t know which song you’ll get! It really helps shape the experience to be quite unique and spectacular!
Wishing you an enchanting visit, Mark!
Aena
