Club Cool (formerly Ice Station Cool) is an attraction and gift shop located in the former Innoventions East building within Epcot at the Walt Disney World Resort in Lake Buena Vista, Florida. It features complimentary samples of Coca-Cola soft drinks from around the world, similar to the World of Coca-Cola's tasting area in Atlanta, Georgia, although the latter offers a larger selection of products to taste (including both foreign and American beverages). Club Cool also offers Coca-Cola merchandise for purchase.[3] The attraction reopened on September 15, 2021, along with the Creations Shop in the building that formerly housed Innoventions East and Mouse Gear, which became part of World Celebration.

History

The entrance of predecessor Ice Station Cool
The original Club Cool's entrance in December 2005

Opened as Ice Station Cool in June 1998, the attraction was themed to a polar exploration, decorated with the pictured vehicle and cavemen frozen in ice. It closed on June 6, 2005, and re-opened as Club Cool on November 14, 2005. Club Cool gave guests samples of different Coca-Cola drinks from several countries for almost 14 years until it was closed on September 8, 2019, for Epcot's renovation.[2] It reopened on September 15, 2021, in a new location next to the Creations Shop (formerly MouseGear) in the former Innoventions East building.

Drinks offered
