Impressions de France - DisneywithIzzy

My Top Five Favorite Shows In The World Showcase

The World Showcase has many shows that are very unique and interesting. Today we are going to be talking about my favorites!

5. My fifth favorite show is Impressions De France in the France pavilion. This indoor show teaches you a lot about France. Why this show is in fifth place for me is because it is outdated and could use an update. You should still see this show though!

4. My forth favorite show is The American Adventure in The United States pavilion. Benjamin Franklin and Mark Twain talk about American History. This show is very educational and INDOORS!

3. In the Japan pavilion you can watch Matsuriza perform Japanese Taiko Drumming. This outdoor show happens several times a day and I like how this show is different.

2. Reflections of China in the China pavilion is an indoor 360 Vision show located in the Hall of Prayer for Good Harvest. This show is awesome! It teaches you a lot about China that you might not have known before. This show was updated and is now renamed Wonderous China.

My favorite show in the World Showcase has to be O Canada! in the Canada pavilion. This show, like the one in China, is a 360 Vision show. This show will educate you about Canada and the host is very funny! This show was updated and is now renamed Canada Far and Wide.

I hope this list will help you find shows to watch while in The World Showcase!

My Top Five Favorite Things To Do When It Is Raining In The World Showcase

In Florida it rains A LOT so when it does rain I have found some great activities to do to make the time go by in the World Showcase.

5. The United States of America pavilion is a great place to go when it rains because they have a show called The American Adventure. This show talks about American History. Before the show starts you can listen to the Voices Of Liberty sing patriotic songs. (You should see this before the show starts if it’s raining because you are INDOORS!!) If you don’t want to hear the Voices Of Liberty you can look at the American Heritage Gallery that has American Indian art.

4. The France pavilion has a show called Impressions De France. This show is indoors and when the show is over you walk into Les Halles Boulangerie. They sell pastries and merchandise.

3. In the China pavilion, you can watch the indoor 360 Cirle-Vision show called Reflections on China. When the show is over you don’t have to go back in the pouring rain because you walk straight into a big store called House of Good Fortune.

2. The store Mitsukoshi in the Japan pavilion is really big so looking at the merchandise will certainly pass the time while it rains. If you are sick of looking at merchandise you can get your passport stamped and look at the Kawaii display. (It’s all in the same building!)

The best place to go when it is raining in the World Showcase is the pyramid in the Mexico pavilion because you can walk inside the pyramid and spent a long time looking at merchandise, eating at the restaurant San Angel Inn Restaurante, and go on the boat ride Gran Fiesta Tour Starring The Three Caballeros. My favorite thing to do in the pyramid is to look at merchandise.

I hope this helps you stay dry while in the World Showcase!

My Top Five Favorite Things To Do In The France Pavilion

The France pavilion is a pavilion with a lot of things to do!

Impressions De France is in between the trees.

5. The France pavilion has a show called Impressions De France. This show is NOT a 360 Vision show like the ones in the China and Canada pavilions. My only complaint is this show is a little outdated.

4. My fourth favorite thing is the acrobat show outside. This show happens outside of Chefs de France. I really like this show and I would recommend watching it!

3. There is a tiny stand called Crepes Des Chefs De France that sells amazing crepes! The best part is that the crepes are still warm when you eat them! You can read my review of this stand here.

2. I have to tell you now about the pastries at Les Halles Boulangerie Patisserie! Located inside of Les Halles, you can choose from many different pastries. I always get the macrons because they are delicious!

I really like the French restaurant called Chefs De France. I went to this restaurant last year and I really enjoyed my food. You can read my review of Chefs De France here.

I hope you decide to check out these shows, snacks, and restaurant because I really recommend them!

The New Things Happening at Epcot

Every year Disney World changes something about their parks. Here is a list of some of the changes happening to Epcot.

Now let’s talk about the pavilions. Over in the France Pavilion, Disney is building Remy’s Ratatouille Adventure, but it won’t be open until the spring of 2020. This ride is actually open in Disneyland Paris already. Also in the France Pavilion there is going to be a Beauty and the Beast Sing-a-long. It will alternate with Impressions de France, the show that is currently in the France Pavilion. In Canada, the show “O’ Canada” is going to be getting a makeover. In the Japan Pavilion, Disney is opening another table service restaurant.

First of all, the Disney Skyliner will open in the Fall of 2019. It will be a transportation network high in the sky that will take you from Pop Century, Art of Animation, Caribbean Beach and the upcoming Disney Riviera resort to the International Gateway at Epcot and Hollywood Studios. I’m excited! Illuminations unfortunately is being replaced by Epcot Forever, a new night time show that will be playing 80’s music.

Calling all Mission Space fans! A space themed restaurant is opening near Mission Space in 2020.

I am really excited about these updates and am looking forward to seeing the rides, restaurants, skyliners and Epcot Forever this year and 2020!

A Beginner’s Guide to the World Showcase: Spotlight on France

A replica Eifel Tower is in the background.

The France Pavilion is a great place to relax. It is a great pavilion to visit because there is so much to do.

Chefs de France is behind the acrobat show.

Food: Chefs de France is one of the first restaurants you spot in the France Pavilion. The other restaurant is called Monsieur Paul. It is only open for dinner. Les Halles Boulangerie Patisserie has croissants, mouthwatering eclairs, mousse, and much more! When I went there I tried the macaroons. They are outstanding! L’Artisan des Glaces is an ice cream shop. It is very popular. Update: La Crêperie de Paris is a restaurant that serves sweet and savory crepes.

Shopping: Souvenirs de France has many classic French souvenirs, such as berets, t-shirts, mini Eiffel Towers and many books about cities, the language, and French artists. This is a store worth checking out.

Entertainment: The France Pavilion does have a show called Impressions de France. Unlike the shows in the China and Canada, you get to sit and watch it like at a movie theater. The show is a little outdated but it’s still a great show. Update: Impressions de France has been replaced with Beauty and the Beast Sing Along. Belle from Beauty and the Beast is available in France for autographs and photos. There is also an acrobat (Serveur Amusant) that performs most of the afternoon. It is a fun and exciting show! France is also getting some new attractions. Ratatouille: The Adventure will be similar to the ride in Disneyland Paris. Chef Skinner will chase guests through Gusteau’s Parisian restaurant on a trackless ride. Can’t wait! Update: Remy’s Ratatouille Adventure opened on October 1, 2021.
