Yesterday, we were surprised that two EPCOT Food and Wine Festival booths opened earlier than their projected October 1st opening date. Talk about a welcome surprise!

Spain Booth
We got to see the early arrival for the Spain booth and The Alps booth and we won’t complain about having more time to eat warm cheese and charcuterie! Today we came back to EPCOT and were welcomed with even more festival surprises!
EPCOT decided to open some more Food and Wine Festival booths today and we tried ALL of them! We started at Lobster Landing, which is serving up some delicious — you guessed it — lobster dishes.
This booth has New England Lobster Tail, Lobster Chowder, and Baked Lobster Dip. ALL the lobster! There are also two wines to choose from here, along with the Cape Codder cocktail and a beer.
And you know we dug in to pretty much everything!
But Mac & Eats also opened today, and this booth, y’all — is DEDICATED TO MAC AND CHEESE!
So the menu features Traditional Macaroni and Cheese, Truffle Macaroni and Cheese, and Cowboy Macaroni and Cheese (!!!). Yeah, we can’t stop drooling… .
You KNOW we hooked ourselves up with some Mac and Cheese Dishes. And check out that Cowboy Mac and Cheese — it’s got Pork Belly, Brisket Burnt Ends, Pickled Peppers AND Onion Straws. There’s a lot of yum stuffed into this dish! We’re also trying out Lemon Hazy IPA.
But wait, there’s more! The Ireland Booth is now open, too!
The returning dishes here include Fisherman’s Seafood Pie, Roasted Irish Sausage, and Warm Chocolate Pudding Cake.
Check out ALL the EPCOT Food and Wine Festival Menus HERE!
We’re excited to see it open early!
If three surprise booth openings weren’t enough, the India booth was also open today!

India Booth
This returning booth features menu items like Warm Indian Bread, Madras Red Curry, and Korma Chicken.

And last but not least, the Kenya Booth opened today!

Kenya Booth 2021
This “new” booth is serving up favorites from past festivals like Kenyan Coffee Barbecue Beef Tenderloin and Piri Piri Skewered Shrimp.

Any news concerning Epcot’s Candlelight?
Best news I’ve heard today!! Thought I would miss these booths on my trip.
We would have loved to visit and eat some of this special foods, on our visit to Disney last week, but some of this places were closed and the only maybe a few were open. But we plan to visit again next year but this placed will probably not be there
Catherine, nothing confirmed at this point.
I noticed on the booth signage the dining plan symbol. Does this mean the dining plan will be available for purchase in the upcoming months?
Kristin, Disney has said the Disney Dining Plan will be back, but they haven’t said when. The DDP symbol has been on the menus since Food and Wine came back in 2020, so I don’t think it’s intended to signal an imminent return.
