The immersive dining experience “transports” guests 220 miles above Earth to the Centauri Space Station. They will see EPCOT drop away under their feet and look up to see the rapidly approaching station.

“With Space 220, we now have a fine dining experience in our World Discovery neighborhood of the Park – and a chance for our EPCOT guests to experience a restaurant that is truly out of this world!” Walt Disney Imagineering Creative Portfolio Executive Tom Fitzgerald said in a news release.

Guests will step off the space elevator and walk past a “grow zone” of spinning produce representing the fresh ingredients on the menu as they’re guided to their table by a Space 220 crew member.

At their table, guests will have panoramic views of Earth as the backdrop for an outta-this-world dining experience.
