Use the International Gateway Entrance to Epcot

“Did you know Epcot has two entrances? The entryway near the International Gateway is almost always less busy than the main entrance.”

Not only is the international gateway entrance less crowded, but while you do have to zip your way to Future World post haste (no loitering!) it is a great way to see a little snippet of the World Showcase before it starts getting busy later on in the day and makes for a great justification for staying at Epcot area resorts like the Yacht and Beach Club or the Boardwalk for real Epcot lovers.

Depending on where you’re going, your best bet might also be the international gateway for a quick exit. There are no buses or monorails out that way, but for an ADR at an Epcot area resort or for the bold adventurer who’d rather chance a park-bound bus at the Boardwalk or Beach Club than at the front of the park, the gateway serves as well.
