Plaza de los Amigos

If EPCOT had a nighttime soul, it would live here. Plaza de los Amigos is the Mexico Pavilion’s indoor market — a twilight village lit by lanterns, filled with vibrant colors, handcrafted goods, and the sound of mariachi music drifting through the air.

🛍️ The Experience

Plaza de los Amigos is one of EPCOT’s most immersive shopping environments. Browse stalls selling hand-carved wooden animals, embroidered clothing, Dia de los Muertos décor, jewelry, pottery, woven goods, and cultural art. The atmosphere is warm, bustling, and beautifully atmospheric — it always feels like a festival inside.
