Being a D23 Gold Member comes with all sorts of perks and benefits! Now, there’s a new experience coming to EPCOT that D23 Members CAN’T miss — it involves food!

EPCOT

There’s an exclusive tasting event happening in the Mexico Pavilion at EPCOT for D23 Members, with a D23 Member-exclusive cocktail! You’re going to need to grab your ticket for the event, and we seriously wouldn’t recommend waiting on this.

UPDATE: The event has already sold out! Stay tuned to DFB for updates on future events like this one

D23 just released information about The Spirit of the Mexico Pavilion: A D23 Experience at EPCOT. The event will take place on March 11th, 2026, and it will only be available to D23 Gold Members. This is a unique opportunity for Gold Members to experience something they never had before!

In order to attend, you’ll need a valid park admission, as neither the park nor parking is included in the price of the experience. So make sure you grab a ticket to EPCOT or reserve for March 11th if you are a Disney World Annual Passholder.

You will have to set some money aside, as tickets are $349 per D23 Gold Member. Remember, that’s NOT including park admission. Tickets are available as of 1 PM ET on February 12th! We’re assuming these are going to be popular, so make sure you’re ready.

A ticket to the event includes:

• La Cava Experience: A private guided tasting with Tequila Ambassador Humberto Soto of six premium agave spirits, ranging from blanco to aged tequilas, plus an artisinal mezcal, as well as chips and guacamole, a keepsake “Agave Connoisseur Club” pin, and a commemorative tequila cocktail glass with the La Cava Tequila logo etched by Arribas Brothers
• La Cava del Tequila: Get the chance to enjoy “The Aztec Eagle,” a D23 Member-exclusive cocktail, created in collaboration with The Walt Disney Archives, which pays tribute to when Walt Disney was honored by the Mexican government with the Order of the Aztec Eagle during a visit to Mexico City in 1943
• San Angel Inn: Experience an incredible meal with a menu created just for this event, featuring some of the restaurant’s most beloved and popular items since its opening in 1982 — guests will select an appetizer, main course, and dessert from the tasting menu included in the ticket, plus a San Angel Inn margarita
• Guests will receive an event credential, as well as a replica of the original 1982 San Angel Inn menu
