Could EPCOT finally be making room for Miguel and the Land of the Dead?The rumors are swirling once again, and this time, they’re louder than ever: a Coco-themed attraction might be on its way to Walt Disney World. While nothing is confirmed (yet), many fans are convinced that the colorful world of Coco could soon replace the Gran Fiesta Tour inside EPCOT’s Mexico Pavilion. Honestly, it makes a lot of sense.Is Gran Fiesta Tour on the Chopping Block?Gran Fiesta Tour has been around since 2007. While it has charm, the boat ride featuring Donald Duck and the Three Caballeros feels slightly out of place compared to the rest of EPCOT’s World Showcase. It’s a cute, low-key attraction, but it’s not exactly the kind of draw that keeps lines long or guests talking.For years, fans have speculated that Coco, with its vibrant visuals, unforgettable music, and powerful story about family and culture, would be the perfect fit for the Mexico Pavilion. The film’s ties to Mexican heritage are authentic and heartfelt—something that would elevate the Pavilion’s already rich theming.Credit: DisneyTiming Could Be EverythingThe Disney parks aren’t slowing down anytime soon. There are countless projects in the works. A brand-new Pirates of the Caribbean tavern is in development, set to give fans more time with their favorite scallywags just steps away from the iconic ride. On top of that, Disney has teased Villains Land as part of the park’s expansion beyond Big Thunder Mountain—something fans have been begging for.Animal Kingdom is planning its own transformation. Tropical Americas land is replacing DinoLand U.S.A., and new experiences themed to Encanto and Indiana Jones are on the way. At Hollywood Studios, guests are buzzing about the Monsters, Inc. expansion and the muppets taking over the Rock’ N Coaster.With all these major projects happening across the resort, EPCOT is likely next for another wave of improvements. The Test Track retheme is set to open at the end of July, and once that’s out of the way, shifting attention to the Mexico Pavilion would make perfect sense. A Coco ride would fit right in as EPCOT continues evolving alongside the rest of Walt Disney World.Credit: DisneyWhat Would a Coco Ride Look Like?If this rumor turns into reality, fans can probably expect a dark ride experience that takes them through the Land of the Dead, with Miguel and Héctor guiding the journey. Think glowing marigold petals, neon skeletons playing guitars, and the emotional “Remember Me” finale—all wrapped into one boat ride adventure.There’s even a chance the basic structure of Gran Fiesta Tour could be reused, similar to how Disney rethemed Maelstrom into Frozen Ever After. That would make the project more cost-effective and allow it to happen faster.Credit: DisneyA Perfect Time for Something NewWhether the rumor becomes official tomorrow or in five years, it’s clear that Gran Fiesta Tour’s days could be numbered. With major EPCOT construction wrapping up and more room on the schedule for updates, this could be the perfect moment for Miguel and his guitar to take center stage.Until then, fans will keep dreaming—and watching closely for the next big Disney World announcement.The post Rumor: ‘Coco’ Ride Could Soon Be a Reality in Disney World appeared first on Inside the Magic.
