Epcot Lost And Found: A Magical Journey Of Rediscovery

Table of Contents

Disney World, without a doubt, is the most magical place on earth, and to keep the Disney magic alive, it has several EPCOT lost and found locations on-site. If you have ever been to Walt Disney World, you know that it can be very overwhelming for a parent or guardian to try to keep up with items that get lost or misplaced.

You are just in the wrong place at the wrong time, and you lose something that can be devastating. A child can lose a favorite stuffed animal, or a parent can lose their credit card. They can’t be optimistic that they will ever see these items again. As a result, they can be frantic in their efforts to find them.

Lost And Found Locations

Each park in Disney World has one lost and found location, and you can find that easily by going through the park map located inside the parks.

If unable to locate lost items, you ask any nearest cast member, as lost and found cast members collect lost items and deliver them to the following places:

Magic Kingdom Lost And Found
