PIXAR's Weekend at Epcot - Photos (PART 1)



This weekend, Epcot is hosting a great event about Pixar, the movie-maker company that has made some of the best Disney movies in history, including TOY STORY, Finding Nemo, Wall-E, Ratatouille, Up and many more! This special events takes place from May 13 to May 15th, 2011.

Let's take a look together at the things to see during this event, including a tour of the World Showplace Pavilion, located directly behind the U.K. pavilion. Let's start right from the entrance of the park, where we see the first Pixar characters... made of flowers, which are not included in the special event, but are part of the 18th Flower & Garden Festival (which, by the way, will end on Sunday, May 15, 2011):
