The EPCOT Festival of the Arts has been making all sorts of CRAZY headlines lately! Sure, we’ve discussed all the best places to eat, what you should try, and where to get some new merchandise, but none of that news quite compared to the saga of the Figment popcorn bucket. Behold, the popcorn bucket that guests waited HOURS to purchase.

This little guy caused a LOT of trouble!
Since all that craziness, Figment is now completely sold out, and the dust has settled. Or has it?
During our latest visit to the EPCOT World Showcase, we found a MASSIVE line for a Festival of the Arts food booth! Was it for the popular Pop Eats booth, where guests could once purchase the Figment popcorn bucket? Perhaps there was a long line at Refreshment Outpost, home of the beloved new Dole Whip treat? Nope!

Tomato Soup with Bacon, Apple, and Brie Grilled Cheese
Oddly, even though it’s a weekend, festival-favorite locations like the America pavilion and the Japan pavilion are practically empty!

No line here!
Even La Cava del Tequila, which is known for long lines and high crowds, was completely empty! So what was everyone standing in line for?

Where is everyone?!
It turns out that Vibrante & Vívido: Encanto Cocina is VERY popular! This is also known as the Encanto booth, where you can get Spicy Ajiaco Soup, House-made Chorizo and Potato Empanada, and Passion Fruit Mousse with Dragon Fruit Jam.

We found the crowd!
The booth is located in between the Morocco and France pavilions, but the line extended all the way into the France pavilion! Talk about POPULAR!

This booth has some AMAZING options!
We’ve been noticing some pretty consistently long lines at this festival food booth, so if you want to try the House-made Chorizo and Potato Empanada or the Coconut and Passion Fruit Smoothie, you might have to wait a while! Keep in mind that the lines are typically a little longer on the weekends, so you might find a shorter wait during the week!

Would you wait in line to eat here?
Be sure to stay tuned as we keep our eyes out for all the latest Disney news and park updates!
