The 2018 Epcot Food and Wine Festival in in full swing and there’s so much to see, and do, and EAT!

2018 Epcot Food and Wine Festival

And, if you’re a football fan AND a foodie, there’s a new event made just for you! On select Monday afternoons through mid-October you can stop in the Festival Center for a Food and Wine Tailgate Tasting!

The Tailgate Tasting takes place from 4:30PM – 5:15PM on September 17 and 24, and October 1, 8, and 15. The first Tailgate Tasting was Monday, September 10.

Food and Wine Tailgate Tasting at the Festival Center

During the Tailgate you get to enjoy a three “sample size” foods inspired by the cities playing in the game each week along with three different beverages, all while learning how to prepare the dishes you’re eating.

A sample menu includes: New York BBQ Meatballs served with Angry Orchard Rose Hard Cider, Detroit Berbere BBQ Ribs served with Bell’s Oberone Ale, and Smoked Brie Mac and Cheese served with a Tropical Mimosa.

Mimosas!

The Food and Wine Tailgate Tasting event hosted by ESPN Monday Night Football and is free to attend.

If you want to attend, pick up a wristband at the Festival Center starting at 9 a.m. each Monday for that day’s seminar. All guests must be present to receive their wristbands. Both wristbands and seating at the event are available on a first come, first serve basis.
