GEO-82 Opening Date and Reservation Details

Mark your calendars now:

  • GEO-82 Opening Date: June 4, 2025
  • GEO-82 Reservations Open: May 6, 2025

And here’s a unique twist — GEO-82 is for guests 21 and older only. That’s right, this is a rare adults-only experience at Walt Disney World, which makes it even more special.

If you’re anything like me, you’re already planning an afternoon break (or maybe a nighttime wind-down) at this incredible new lounge in the heart of EPCOT. Reservations will be available through the My Disney Experience app.

What to Expect at GEO-82

Disney describes GEO-82 as a “hidden part” of Spaceship Earth, designed with warm metallics, rich textures, and geometric patterns that echo the attraction’s famous exterior.

Inside, it’s meant to feel like a secret escape — sophisticated, stylish, and unlike any other lounge you’ve visited at Walt Disney World. Even better, you’ll get stunning views of World Celebration Gardens while you sip and snack.

Based on the concept art, we may even get views of Luminous: A Symphony of Us.

GEO-82 Spaceship Earth Lounge Fireworks Experience

GEO-82 Spaceship Earth Lounge Fireworks Experience

Want to end your EPCOT evening in serious style?
Disney is offering a GEO-82 Fireworks Experience that sounds absolutely incredible.

For $179 per person (plus tax and gratuity), you’ll reserve a private table along the lounge windows — prime seating for Luminous The Symphony of Us, EPCOT’s nighttime spectacular.

Here’s what the GEO-82 Fireworks Experience includes:

  • Champagne handpicked by Walt Disney World sommeliers (or an event-exclusive cocktail if you prefer)
  • A tasting tower of savory bites before the fireworks
  • A selection of sweets served during the show

It’s part of the Enchanting Extras Collection, meaning you can book it separately once reservations open.

Important notes:

  • Theme park admission is required and not included in the price.
  • Theme park reservations may also be required based on your ticket type.
  • This experience is adults-only (21+), like the rest of GEO-82.

Disney says, “Each seat is superb,” and honestly, it sounds like one of the best new ways to experience fireworks at EPCOT without battling the crowds.
If you’re a foodie or you love a premium lounge vibe, this could be the ultimate way to wrap up your day.

I’m no stranger to Disney planning, as a Disneyland magic key holder and DVC member. I’m the person people ask for trip planning advice. But I had never been on a Disney cruise, and had heard great about Nate and decided to reach out. I’m so glad I did because we could not have been happier with our experience. His tips and insights were incredibly helpful, and he was incredibly responsive any time we had a question. Who do the Disney experts turn to when they need help? Nate, that’s who. We’ll definitely be using him again.

Our experience working with Nate as our Disney vacation planner was exceptional. He was responsive and thorough. He gave us insights that made the trip go much more smoothly. We were able to really relax and focus on quality time as a family and have so much fun doing it! I will definitely reach out for any future trips.

Could not have wanted or expected more from Nate, our Distrips and More agent as we planned our 2025 Disney World trip. Nate was VERY responsive to emails and texts and more than willing to do whatever he could to guide us and answer our questions. On several occasions I emailed him over the weekend not expecting a response until Monday but each time he responded before the weekend was over. He even participated in a Zoom session with our group of five seniors as we planned our trip. He also helped us at the 11th hour when we added a family member to our travel group less than a month before our trip. Without a doubt, I will reach out to Nate when I'm ready to plan my next trip to Disney World!

We are so thankful we used Nate to plan not only our first Disney trip, but also our second. He made the process so easy for us, especially for us since it was our first time going. There was a lot to consider and many decisions to make, such as where to stay, when to go, and what to experience. Nate really helped us narrow down what we wanted to do overall, but he didn’t stop there. He provided detailed guides to help us navigate the airport and find our transportation to the resort, as well as a guide to explore the resorts and make sure we saw the best Christmas decorations. One of the many amazing things he also did was set up our dinner reservations for us. This saved us so much stress and allowed us to get some of our top choices. From the moment we landed in Orlando to the moment we headed back home, he made sure everything went smoothly. You truly can’t go wrong with going to him for your next trip.

Nate has helped us with our vacation planning for the last couple of years and we couldn't be happier with his service and expertise. We've used other travel agents in the past and none of them have done as phenomenal a job to make sure every detail is taken care of as he has. Switching to Nate was one of the best decisions we've ever made. He's always quick to answer questions and works tirelessly to make sure we get everything we want from our trips. Plus, he's just a genuinely great person who is wonderful to work with. Whether you're planning a trip to Walt Disney World, Disneyland, a Disney Cruise, or any other vacation, Nate is the guy you want putting it all together! Five stars across the board!
