Walt Disney World Resort is a place where families come together to experience the magic, but in recent years, there’s been a growing demand for spaces that cater to adult guests. While Disney parks have always prided themselves on being a family-friendly destination, the introduction of more sophisticated, adults-only experiences marks a new chapter in how Disney accommodates its visitors.
With this in mind, Disney World has announced an exciting addition to EPCOT, specifically designed for the adult crowd. The highly anticipated GEO-82, an adults-only lounge, is set to open this summer at EPCOT.

This exclusive venue will offer a sanctuary away from the usual hustle and bustle, providing a relaxing and refined atmosphere where grown-ups can unwind, sip on signature cocktails, and enjoy delicious bites.
GEO-82: A New Adults-Only Oasis at EPCOT
Scheduled to open its doors on June 4, 2025, GEO-82 promises to be an upscale destination for Disney fans aged 21 and older. Disney is taking a bold step with this lounge, which will be entirely free from children, catering exclusively to those seeking a more tranquil and sophisticated experience within the park.
The opening of GEO-82 follows the announcement at the D23 Expo in August, where Disney revealed plans for two themed adults-only lounges: one based on Pirates of the Caribbean in Magic Kingdom and the other at EPCOT, inspired by the iconic Spaceship Earth. While the Pirates of the Caribbean lounge will welcome guests of all ages, GEO-82 will cater exclusively to adults.

The decision to create an adults-only space has been met with mixed reactions, but it’s clear that there’s a market for it. For many, Disney World can be overwhelming with the constant energy and excitement geared toward younger visitors. GEO-82 offers a retreat where adults can relax, recharge, and enjoy a sophisticated environment away from the kid-centric attractions.

Due to the exclusive nature of GEO-82, reservations will be required to access this lounge, which will have limited space. Reservations for GEO-82 will open on May 6, 2025, so guests eager to secure a spot should act fast.
