The World Showcase is fantastic experience that guests of EPCOT absolutely love. World Showcase allows guests to experience 11 different countries. Each country is represented by a pavilion, and each pavilion showcases the culture and community of the country it is representing. Each pavilion has its own set of unique attractions, dining, shopping, and entertainment. The Canada pavilion is the first country when starting to the right of the showcase, or the last country when you begin on the left. The Canada pavilion represents a beautiful and proud country. If you have an upcoming visit to EPCOT, then be sure to check out these must-do’s in World Showcase’s Canada pavilion.
Climb the Stairs and Go Sightseeing!
Many guests simply walk past the Canada pavilion without actually ascending the stairs and exploring! If you don’t actually enter the pavilion then you are missing out on some great sightseeing. A stunning brick building inspired by real Canadian architecture can be seen, as well as a totem pole and displays of kayaks in order to represent Canada’s indigenous people. Perhaps the most standout feature of the Canada pavilion is the waterfall. This is not only a great photo opportunity but also a great place to relax.
Canada Far & Wide
If you are curious to know more about Canada and its great sights, then Canada Far & Wide is definitely a must-do attraction for you. This 12 minute-long film is presented in incredible Circle Vision, giving you a 360 degree glimpse of Canada’s natural beauty. This attraction runs periodically throughout the day and is for guests of all ages. Guests should be aware that this attraction has no seating.
Le Cellier
One of the best signature dining experiences in all of Disney World is within the Canada pavilion. Le Cellier is a Canadian steakhouse with a warm and cozy dining enviroment. Unique appetizers like Bison Tartare and Canadian Cheddar Cheese Soup, paired with incredible cut steaks cooked to perfection make for an elegant dining experience that you won’t forget. Of course, classic Poutine is served here as well. Guests love Le Cellier for its delicious food and sophistication. Advance dining reservations are highly recommended for this signature dining experience.
Northwest Mercantile Shopping
Part of what makes World Showcase so unique is its many shops. No trip to Canada is complete without some shopping for authentic souvenirs. Northwest Mercantile is your one stop shop for all things Canada including NHL merchandise, maple syrup, and other iconic Canadian goodies.
Try Poutine at The Refreshment Port
Nothing says Canada like poutine! Poutine can be found at The Refreshment Port in the Canada pavilion. This snack stand serves traditional poutine of hand-cut fries, beef gravy, and cheese curds. An assortment of bottled beverages is sold here as well as seasonal beers, cocktails, and wine.
