We got creative at the EPCOT Festival of the Arts. We went green for the Flower and Garden Festival. We even snacked our way around the world at the Food and Wine Festival. But soon, the final festival of the year will return to EPCOT; the International Festival of the Holidays will run from November 29th through December 30th! The event begins the day after Thanksgiving — just in time for the holiday season.

EPCOT International Festival of the Holidays
So, what can we expect this year? Well, we just got a look at the menus for this year, and we do know that the Candlelight Processional will return, along with the Holiday Storytellers, Joyful: A Celebration of the Season, and two classic holiday attraction overlays. We also know that there will be tons of new festival merchandise — we’ve got a NEW preview to share!
Disney just teased a new holiday collection, complete with some festive accessories! First, we spotted this new bag, which reminds us of a sweet snow globe. This could be the perfect new park bag for the winter!

Disney also shared a new look at its GORGEOUS Festival of the Holidays Minnie ears! These are amazing. From the subtle Spaceship Earth pattern to the sparkly snowflakes, the design team KILLED IT with this one.
