The shopping location that is currently known as Club Cool originally opened as Ice Station Cool in July 1998 <ref> https://d23.com/a-to-z/club-cool/ </ref>. Ice Station Cool was themed as an arctic research station and sponsored by Coca-Cola. Guests would enter the store through a snowy cave, before passing through an ice tunnel with real snow <ref name= "lost"/>. During their entrance into the main area, guests would also see a frozen caveman holding a bottle of coke <ref name= "lost"> http://www.lostepcot.com/icestationcool.html </ref>. Once inside the shop, guests could sample various Coca-Cola flavors from around the world<ref name= "lost"/>.
In June 2005, Ice Station Cool closed for refurbishment. At this time, the location was completely redone, eventually reopening on as Club Cool on November 1418, 2005 <ref> httphttps://www.thisdayindisneyhistoryd23.com/Nov14.html a-to-z/club-cool/l </ref>. This new Coca-Cola sponsored location still allows guests to sample Coca-Cola flavors from around the world, however it is now has a modern urban theme.
In 2013, Club Cool got entirely new flavors for guests to sample. Although all the other flavors were replaced at this time, the popular Beverly remained <ref> http://www.wdwmagic.com/attractions/club-cool/news/29oct2013-all-new-flavors-and-one-old-favorite-debut-at-epcot's-club-cool-tomorrow.htm </ref>.
In July 2019, Disney confirmed that Club Cool would be closing on September 8, 2019 <ref> https://www.wdwmagic.com/attractions/epcot/news/03jul2019-summary-of-all-the-closures-coming-to-epcots-future-world.htm </ref>. The company later clarified that the store would eventually be returning in some capacity, although a new location was not given <ref> https://twitter.com/WDWToday/status/1146156836887945217 </ref>.
On April 9, 2021, Disney announced that Club Cool would be opening in its new location (next to the Creations Shop in World Celebration) in the Summer of 2021 <ref name= "refurb"> https://www.wdwmagic.com/attractions/club-cool/news/09apr2021-club-cool-to-reopen-this-summer-at-epcot.htm </ref>. According to Disney, the new location will "celebrate Coca-Cola in a fresh new way, while keeping the fan-favorite experience that invites you to explore tasty drinks from around the world. This space will also have some new magic to bring the global experience of Coca-Cola to life for you" <ref name="refurb"/>.
