    Default Can you get a GAC at the IG entrance at Epcot?

    We will be visiting WDW in December, staying at the Beach Club. We need to get a GAC for our son. Last time, we waited until our second day (big mistake!) and got it at the Guest Relations in MK. This time, knowing that our boys like Epcot most, we will probably head to that park first. Since we will be entering at the International Gateway, I need to know if we can take care of getting the GAC there, or do we need to go to the front main entrance of the park? If we can do it at IG, where is that? Outside the gates, or inside?

    Default Both entrances offer the same

    You can get your GAC at either entrance. Often times if you are going early, the IG is much less crowded than the main entrance. Remember the only people at the IG will be on foot from the Boardwalk, Yacht Club and Beach Club or boats from that resort, the main entrance is busses, and daily parkers.

    Is Guest Services INSIDE the entry turnstiles or outside? Since we will also have to activate Armed Forces Salute tickets prior to entry, I need to know this! Want to see if we can get both things done at the IG PRIOR to using our tickets to gain entry.

    It is outside the turnstiles... There are two small buildings (large booths?); the one on the right sells tickets. If your pre purchase you can pick up there. The building on the left is Guest Services. They can give you the GAC & give you pre purchased tickets. I recommend going to the GS booth first and then to the ticket booth if you need to as there was never anyone at GS when we walked by.
