Everything you Need to Know about Shopping Around Epcot’s World Showcase

Do you want to see where to purchase authentic items and fun souvenirs from each country? Check out our World Showcase shopping guide.

World Showcase Pavilions

Epcot is one of my (Susan) favorite Disney Parks. There are so many shops and wonderful areas to explore. However, most people don’t take the time to check out all the World Showcase has to offer. In this article, we explore shops in each pavilion.

I hope this makes it easier to find your next Disney treasure. We’re going to start in Mexico and make our way around the World Showcase Lagoon in a clockwise direction.

Mexico

Walking through the open air market, you’ll find carts filled with vibrant assortments of leather goods, glassware, piñatas, ceramics, and so much more. Not only that, but you may catch Coco and Encanto merchandise as well as authentic clothing and accessories. It’s a very large area that is fun to window shop.

At La Princesa de Cristal look for Arribas Brothers crystal and glassware, cut crystal, blown glass and crystal figurines. You may even catch artisans making these items. Next to La Princesa de Cristal, you’ll find La Tienda Encantada. This authentically inspired Mexican gift shop sells jewelry, accessories, and handcrafted items.

Located at the exit of the Frozen Ever After attraction, check out the cool shop here. Where else can you pose with a life size troll? At the Fjording, you can shop for Norwegian clothing, collectibles, jewelry, Frozen merchandise, toys and more!  Put on a Viking helmet and purchase Norwegian fleece. This shop has a series of interconnected rooms.

My favorite item here is the beloved Geir Ness fragrance, Laila. It is such a refreshing fragrance! I (Susan) just fell in love with it. My husband uses the Geir Ness men’s fragrance. Also, this shop features Helly Hansen outerwear and hand knit Norwegian wool sweaters by Dale of Norway. These items are pricey so plan accordingly.

China

If you’re in a hurry or don’t want to explore the larger store, House of Good Fortune, check out the kiosk on the main World Showcase Lagoon pathway. Although it’s a small location, they stock a variety of goods.

For a more immersive shopping experience, try the House of Good Fortune. It’s one of the largest World Showcase stores and carries a wide assortment of authentic Chinese souvenirs. Here, shoppers find lanterns, clothing, jewelry, teapots and cups, statues, trinkets, and snacks.

In addition, during January and February, guests can purchase Lunar New Year merchandise. All year round, purchase fans in China to cool off from the Florida heat.

Germany

Karamell-Küche is filled with delicious caramel-themed treats. My favorite is the freshly made caramel popcorn. Germany Pavilion has eight different shops. In Das Kaufhaus, look for glassware, soccer apparel and accessories. Der Teddybar is such an adorable location and name with authentic German merchandise.

At Die Weihnachts Ecke, it’s Christmas 365 days a year! Year-round, shoppers find an assortment of Disney Parks and German inspired ornaments and other Christmas decorations. And don’t forget to look for the famous pickle tree!

Like in Morocco, guests at this pavilion shop in an open air marketplace winding through the pavilion. Not only that, but shops here make you feel like you’re on a far away journey. Casablanca Carpets looks bare now since it is temporarily unavailable. However, when open, handmade Berber carpets are displayed beside beautiful prayer rugs. Also found here were wall hangings, home decor items, throw and floor cushions.

At Marketplace of the Medina, visitors find a collection of interconnected shops. There are beautifully adorned lamps, ornate jewelry, and decorative Thuya wood boxes. This location doesn’t currently sell merchandise, but offers beverages with tables guests can enjoy.

I love this store. Where else can you “walk inside” a totem pole? It feels like I should be trading crops or fur here rather than being at a theme park. At the Trading Post, guests shop for hand-carved wood gifts and Canadian Maple Syrup.
