EPCOT is basically festival town these days, and now we’ve got some BIG festival news for 2022!
Whether you’re into arts, food & wine, or flowers and gardening, there’s an EPCOT festival for you! Every year, EPCOT also typically hosts its International Festival of the Holidays, where the park is transformed to celebrate holiday traditions from around the world! And we just got a huge update on the 2022 Festival!
The 2022 EPCOT International Festival of the Holidays will return and be available starting on November 25th! Disney has not yet announced an end date for the Festival. In 2021, however, the Festival ran through December 30th, so we expect this year will be similar. We’ll be on the lookout for updates on that.
What a great way to close out another incredible year at EPCOT! We can’t wait to try all of the food booths.
There are always so many fun snacks to try during Festival of the Holidays, and we’ll keep you updated on which ones you HAVE to try!
Thus far, Disney has confirmed that the Holiday Cookie Stroll will be returning to EPCOT as part of the Festival of the holidays, Candlelight Processional will be back, and (of course) there will be holiday dishes available at the various Holiday Kitchens. A full list of the cookies for the cookie stroll and the Holiday Kitchens (a.k.a. food booths) hasn’t yet been shared, but we’re on the lookout for the latest details!
