Imagineer Zach Riddley has shared the first look at the marquee signage for the upcoming Connections Café and Eatery at EPCOT.
It matches the signage for the Creations Shop, with which it shares a building. Connections is just across the breezeway in the former home of Electric Umbrella.
This is the first of five new marquees which are being installed at Connections Café and Eatery, which is the successor to the ever popular quick serve Electric Uberella.
Opening to guests this spring, this new fast-casual restaurant and adjoining café was
inspired by the core EPCOT idea of "connecting"- by the common bond we share over food and the gathering of people across cultures. EPCOT is a park about people, and this new location within World Celebration will commemorate that with the talent and skill found within the kitchen, and those who gather together to enjoy each other's company over a meal.
Zach Riddley said “I’m excited to share a first-look at more progress from EPCOT. This morning, the first of five new marquees was installed at Connections Café and Eatery! These marquees continue the design language established with our recent Creations Shop marquees, leveraging large-scale typography in our signature EPCOT World Bold font.

“I’ve had a chance to walk these spaces with our Imagineers bringing the design to life and it’s truly a stunning addition. Connections Café and Eatery continues to take shape, and we’ll have much more to share as progress unfolds. There are unique design features that echo EPCOT of the past that are truly stunning. Stay “connected” with us here for more exciting reveals.”
