It’s been a BIG day of news for the EPCOT Food and Wine Festival!
EPCOT International Food and Wine Festival
While we already knew some of the booths that would be available this year, we got a FULL list of options today — plus a first look at some exclusive Festival merchandise. And now, we’re takin’ a peek at some booths that will be BRAND-new to this year’s Festival.
While we’ll get plenty of returning booths like Hops & Barley, Shimmering Sips, and The Donut Box, there will also be some newbies! Brew-Wing at the EPCOT Experience will feature American eats like chicken wings and flatbreads, with beers and ciders to sip.

Meanwhile, The Noodle Exchange is all about (ya guessed it!) NOODLES, with plenty of “flavors of the Far East.” And Rotunda Bistro in the American Adventure Pavilion will serve up seafood and produce!

You can enjoy pork, wine, beer, or even a cocktail at The Swanky Saucy Swine — or head over to Tangierine Cafe: Flavors of the Medina for traditional Moroccan cuisine. Kebabs and falafel, here we come!

While all of those booths will debut on July 15th, the official start of the Festival, some other new arrivals won’t pop up until October 1st. Among those is Kenya (which features traditional Kenyan food), Lobster Landing (with New England-inspired lobster eats), and Mac & Eats (your one-stop-shop for mac and cheese)!
Note that while Disney’s website for the EPCOT Food & Wine Festival still lists Kenya as a “new” booth, in other posts it seems Disney no longer considers it to be “new.” This could be because the booth will be serving up 2 dishes we’ve seen served at the Food & Wine Festival (at booths that went by a different name) in the past — the Kenyan Coffee Barbecue Beef Tenderloin and the Piri Piri Skewered Shrimp.

We’ll be sure to let you know as soon as menus are released for these booths (and all the other ones at the Festival!). We sure are getting excited for July 15th. Stay tuned to DFB for more Disney news!

Totally disappointed that a number of restaurants are not opening until October 1st. Having reservations for September means we will miss all the new kiosks. Why are all not up and running at the same time?
Bill, Disney didn’t provide a rationale for the decision. We might guess it could be due to the 50th anniversary on that date (also EPCOT’s 39th anniversary), but it certainly could be for other reasons.
