What to do in Italy at EPCOT

Shows and performers

Set times change daily and are in the Disney app; the links go to Disney’s page for each.

• Sergio
  A juggler with footballs who talks through a whistle and pulls people from the crowd into the act.

Where to eat

Places we have written up come first, cheapest first, with the opening line of our verdict. The rest link to Disney’s page.

• Pizza al Taglio · Counter service, about $10 a head
  Yes.
• Gelateria Toscana · Snacks, about $11 a head
  The quality is praised and the price is the catch.
• Tutto Italia Ristorante · Sit-down, about $38 a head
  Reasonable rather than exciting, and it is the most conventional table-service restaurant in World Showcase.
• Via Napoli Ristorante e Pizzeria · Sit-down, about $40 a head
  For a family sharing a Mezzo Metro, yes — and it is one of the few table services in World Showcase where the arithmetic actually favours you.

Bars and drinks

• Tutto Gusto Wine Cellar
  For a sit-down glass of wine away from the World Showcase crowds, yes.

Shops

• Il Bel Cristallo
  Murano glass, porcelain, crystal, handbags and clothing.
• La Bottega Italiana
  Venetian masks, cookware and Italian foods.

Around the lagoon

Every pavilion has a Kidcot Fun Stop, where children colour and collect a stamp from each country, on Disney’s own description. Next door round the lagoon: Germany and The American Adventure. Or see all eleven pavilions.
