¡Viva la Pavement! New Themed Concrete Enhances Entrance to EPCOT’s Mexico Pavilion
The Chip and Co crew took a stroll through EPCOT recently and spotted something that’s concrete-ly cool — fresh themed pavement is being installed around the entrance to the Mexico pavilion! This subtle update is giving guests an even more immersive welcome to the land of fiestas, folklore, and flavorful food.

The new concrete features a deeper, slightly orange hue compared to the older, lighter pathways, instantly evoking a more authentic, sunbaked look. But it’s not just the color that’s different — this pavement has texture! Tiny gravel pieces and thematic “cracks” have been added to create a worn-in, earthy feel that fits perfectly with the pavilion’s Mesoamerican aesthetic.
Guests will notice the new pavement flanking both sides of the La Cantina de San Angel entrance archway, as well as surrounding the foot of the iconic pyramid that houses the pavilion’s indoor marketplace and beloved Gran Fiesta Tour ride.

This is just the latest in a series of enhancements to the Mexico pavilion. Recent updates have included facade refurbishments, refreshed lighting, and new props inside the Gran Fiesta Tour Starring the Three Caballeros — proving Disney’s got plenty of love for José, Panchito, and Donald!
Stay tuned as EPCOT continues to evolve, one carefully crafted detail at a time.
