    We are staying at the Beach Club Resort in August and whilst planning our visit I noticed that the World Showcase and Future World at EPCOT have different opening times. Can we only use the back entrance to EPCOT through the World Showcase when it is open?

    Hey, Rebecca!

    Welcome to the Disney Parks Moms Panel! We love Disney's Beach Club Resort. After pounding the pavement as theme park warriors, we need some down time. We want the sand, the ship slide and the lazy river. There is only one place to get these … Stormalong Bay at Disney’s Yacht and Beach Club Resorts. We loved waking up in the morning and heading down for a day of beach balls, games and dancing poolside. You are going to have a blast and the fact that you are an 8-10 minute walk from your room to Epcot's International Gateway makes this Resort hotel even better.

    Guests may enter Epcot at the International Gateway when the park opens and head straight to attractions. The World Showcase activities, attractions, shops and restaurants open at 11:00 a.m. 

    Disney Dad Tip: The World Showcase is best for pictures before it officially opens at 11:00 a.m.

    Please let me know if you have any further questions to help make your Walt Disney World vacation more special.

    Rebecca, enjoy making many Magical Memories!
