food IS a theme park
We’re getting excited for the 2026 EPCOT International Food & Wine Festival, and we know you guys are too!
EPCOT’s International Food and Wine Festival Passport 2025
This year marks the 30th anniversary of the festival, and there are going to be over 100 new food items and 30 food booths to enjoy. On top of that, you’ll have exclusive merchandise and entertainment to check out during your visit. But one thing that you might want to add to your to-do list is the NEW food crawl!
If you’ve been following social media recently, you may be familiar with the Trader Joe’s tote bags that have been VERY popular online (and yes, people have been standing in long lines to get them).

However, what if we said you could get similar bags…but with a Disney theme? Well, you might think this Disney tote bag collection is soon to be the next viral sensation because they look a LOT like the Trader Joe’s bags but with a fun Disney twist.
Loungefly bags are all the rage on a Disney vacation, but they can be PRICEY!
SO many designs
If you’re looking to build up your collection, you’re not alone. But you don’t have to break the bank to do it! Right now, there are some seriously awesome Disney Loungefly deals, and we’re rounding them up for you.
Here at Disney Food Blog, we’re always on the hunt for the newest Disney Loungefly bags. Not only are they super cute and themed after your favorite Disney characters, but they’re also lightweight and a great size to carry around all day as your go-to Disney park bag!
Rapunzel
Loungefly just released a brand-new Disney Princess collection, including super-popular princesses like Ariel, Rapunzel, Elsa, Anna, and Cinderella. You’re sure to find your new favorite bag in this massive collection!
Amazon is one of our favorite places to find some of the BEST deals, especially when it comes to Disney!

The seasons are changing, and Disney World is officially decked out in its fall decor, which means your house should be, too! We found some great things on Amazon for the fall, and we think Disney Adults will be running to add them to their carts!
The EPCOT Food and Wine Festival will be here before you know it, and we’re pretty excited. OF COURSE, we’re excited because this year’s festival is bringing almost 100 new food items to EPCOT, and we are ready to try them all!
We love festivals, but finding a table at one? Good luck!
BUT…we still have a big beef with EPCOT festivals, and we bet you’ve probably had this problem, too: there are never enough places to eat. That means you pretty much just end up using the top of a trash can as a table, and yes, we’ve all done it. Well, EPCOT just made a huge change that could mean the end of trashcan dining forever.
The EPCOT International Food & Wine Festival is almost back, and we’re already dreaming of invisible empanadas — we’ll explain.
It’s a pretty decent sized empanada
The festival comes with the thing we all secretly love most: an excuse to wander the World Showcase, eat our way around the globe, and all in the name of cultural exploration. Between the food booths, the Eat to the Beat concerts, and enough specialty cocktails to make the walk from Mexico to Canada feel like a marathon, the Festival gives us endless reasons to linger. But this year, there’s a new reason to stop dead in your tracks in the Mexico Pavilion.
Disney made some pretty major anouncements during D23: The Ultimate Disney Fan Event. However, there was one that was TRULY shocking!

During the Imagineering Showcase, Disney announced that they would be fixing the long-broken yeti animatronic on Expedition Everest in Animal Kingdom. This poor thing has been broken for literal years, and now it’s getting some love. But fans had some rather mixed reactions to the news.
Universal Orlando is one of the most popular theme parks in the country, and for good reason. It has some of the biggest franchises, like Harry Potter, Shrek, Minions, and Monsters. Combine those franchises with character interactions, rides, entertainment, and experiences, and you’ve got yourself quite a popular spot.

Because of their popularity, this means it can also get pretty busy. BUT there are several weeks in 2027 where Universal Orlando will be EMPTY. These are the 10 weeks you should consider booking your trip to Universal Orlando.
Disney+ has just released a new documentary, and it takes you behind the scenes of some of Disney’s big theme park updates over the years.

Worldbuilders is all about “the minds behind the magic” — the people who created the movies and content that eventually turned into theme park lands and rides around the world. In the documentary, Leslie Iwerks sits down with names like James Cameron, Jon Favreau, Kevin Feige, Jennifer Lee, and more. But perhaps one of the most interesting bits for theme park fans looking toward the future is the interview with Bob Iger.
