Air Canada to Sponsor New ‘La Poutinerie’ at EPCOT

A new sponsorship is quietly making its way to EPCOT, and it comes with a refreshed identity for a familiar World Showcase snack stop.

Air Canada has revealed plans to sponsor a reimagined version of Refreshment Port, which will soon be known as La Poutinerie, hosted by Air Canada. While Disney has not officially announced the update yet, newly released concept art gives a clear idea of what guests can expect when the location debuts.

At first glance, the structure itself remains largely unchanged. The same small pavilion footprint is still there, but the surrounding space is getting a noticeable upgrade.

The concept art shows a much more defined and inviting setting. A landscaped garden now sits front and center, anchored by a vibrant red tree that immediately pulls your eye in. Surrounding it are flowers, greenery, and a low railing that frames the space, giving it a more intentional, story-driven feel that better matches the nearby Canada pavilion.

There are also subtle thematic touches that help sell the setting. Canadian Geese in flight above the tree add movement, while updated signage on both sides of the kiosk looks cleaner and more cohesive. These boards appear to function as both menu and informational displays, helping the location feel less like a generic quick-service stand and more like a dedicated destination.

The name “La Poutinerie” makes the menu direction pretty clear. Poutine has long been a guest favorite at this spot, and this update suggests Disney is leaning fully into that identity rather than treating it as just another snack option. Whether that means expanded variations or just a more focused menu remains to be seen.

This isn’t a major overhaul, but it doesn’t need to be. It’s a smart refresh. It gives the location a stronger sense of place without losing what already worked.

No opening date has been confirmed yet, but Air Canada has indicated the new La Poutinerie should be arriving soon.
