Bonjour, Debbie!
Welcome to planDisney and thank you for bringing us your magnificent question about shopping at the
Walt Disney World Resort. It looks like you're either currently on-site or recently enjoyed a visit to The Most Magical Place on Earth - how fabulous! I just returned from an enchanting Walt Disney World Resort vacation myself, and I'd be happy to help you with your merchandise-related question.
Debbie, the shops in the France pavilion at
EPCOT have some of the most darling merchandise on property, in my opinion. I'm happy to inform you that, if you're still on-site enjoying a Walt Disney World Resort vacation, you'll be welcome to visit the France pavilion to make a purchase as long as you have valid
theme park admission for EPCOT! Remember, date-based theme park tickets no longer require theme park reservations. If you've already departed The Most Magical Place on Earth to head home, you may be happy to know that some Disney Parks merchandise can be purchased online via the
Disney Store. Otherwise, perhaps it's time to start planning your next visit to EPCOT!
If you're still at the Walt Disney World Resort, I encourage you to head over to EPCOT, not only for the merchandise, but to enjoy the
EPCOT International Flower & Garden Festival, which just kicked off today, February 28, 2024! This fascinating festival brings beautiful, bountiful blooms to the theme park, along with fresh flavors and exciting entertainment offerings, and runs through May 27, 2024. This is my personal favorite of the EPCOT festivals, Debbie, and I hope you'll have the chance to experience it!
I hope you've found this information helpful and I hope the rest of your Walt Disney World Resort vacation is filled with incredible experiences, Debbie. If you have any additional questions about your current stay, or when you're ready to start planning your next enchanting escape, feel free to revisit us right here at
planDisney. We're here to help you make the most of your time at The Most Magical Place on Earth!
Warm wishes,
Lauren
