We came. We saw. We conquered. And we ate…a lot. Yes, we’ve just finished the first day of the 2026 EPCOT Food & Wine Festival, and we did EVERYTHING there was to do and saw everything there was to see.

The EPCOT International Food & Wine Festival is almost here, and Disney has FINALLY released the menus. The 2026 festival runs from August 27th through November 21st, giving us nearly three months to roam around World Showcase carrying tiny plates, tiny forks, and increasingly complicated opinions about cheese.

And this year is a big one. Food & Wine is celebrating its 30th anniversary, with Disney bringing back or reimagining 30 dishes from festivals past. Naturally, we went straight to the menus to see what was new. But we also noticed something very important. A LOT of things we loved in 2025 are coming back.
EPCOT is about to do one of its classic seasonal costume changes, and this time, it means the flowers, food booths, topiaries, and springtime snacks are all packing their tiny festival suitcases.
Flower and Garden Topiaries
The 2026 EPCOT International Flower & Garden Festival ends on June 1st, which means you have just a few days left to get your final festival lap in before EPCOT starts shifting toward its next big food-focused era. And look, EPCOT is always going to be EPCOT. Spaceship Earth will still be standing there like a giant golf ball with secrets. Guardians of the Galaxy: Cosmic Rewind will still be launching people into emotional disco orbit. But the Flower & Garden Festival? That’s seasonal. Once it’s gone, a LOT changes fast.
It’s officially time for the EPCOT Flower and Garden Festival! If you’re overwhelmed by ALL the different snack options to choose from, don’t worry, we’ve tried them all, and we’re telling you which ones you NEED to have.
