Ever since 2020's reopening, Epcot's World Showcase has felt a little flat, due to the lack of entertainment options that used to help bring this land's international pavilions to life. However, it looks like several fan-favorite EPCOT entertainment acts will be returning to the park just in time for the kickoff of the resort's 50th anniversary starting this weekend! Here are all the returning entertainment acts you'll be able to see once again at EPCOT starting October 1:

• Alberta Bound will resume performances at the Mill Stage in the Canada Pavilion 
• Sergio the Italian Juggler will perform throughout the afternoon and evening in the Italian Pavilion Courtyard
• The Matsuriza Taiko Drummers will return to the Japan pavilion performing every hour from 11:30 - 5:30 Thursdays through Mondays

In addition to these EPCOT entertainment options, the Let the Magic Begin show at the Magic Kingdom, which has not been performed since March 2020, is now listing times once again on the official Walt Disney World calendar starting October 1, 2021. This show takes place 5 minutes before opening every day and features Mickey and friends welcoming guests to the park. 

It is certainly a relief to see these fan favorite entertainment acts return to EPCOT, alongside other returning and reopening entertainment options around the park.
