2009 Epcot Food and Wine Festival
We’ve really been enjoying the EPCOT Flower and Garden Festival.
Food and Wine!
The festival is still going strong and runs for another month — through July 4th. We’ve told you all about the food, activities, and entertainment. We’ve even told you about the NEXT festival, the EPCOT Food & Wine Festival, which starts on July 14th. Well, Disney has decided to get an early jump on getting things ready for that one!
EPCOT has been going through a transformation for what seems like forever!
EPCOT
From massive updates to the park’s neighborhoods and new dining locations to smaller changes like a fresh coat of paint, EPCOT has seen its fair share of updates recently. And it looks like that won’t be stopping anytime soon, so we’re taking another look at what’s new in EPCOT!
The EPCOT Food and Wine Festival is going to be VERY exciting this year! For starters, the Eat to the Beat concert series is returning after a two-year hiatus!
Food & Wine Festival 2021
That means we’ll get to see some amazing acts in concert again during the festival like Boyz II Men, Tiffany, Hanson, and more! But how can you guarantee that you’ll get good seats for the concert you want to see? Well, that’s where the Eat to the Beat dining packages come in — and those are returning this year, too, and you can book them RIGHT NOW.
Sorry, EPCOT Flower and Garden Festival — you’re old news. We’ve moved on to the 2022 EPCOT Food and Wine Festival!
Festival Passports
Okay, okay, Flower and Garden is still running through July 4th, and we know the Food and Wine Festival doesn’t kick off until July 14th…but there’s nothing wrong with planning ahead, right?! And if you’re traveling from far away to attend this festival, there are a lot of things to keep in mind when planning your trip — including when the booths open. (As we saw in 2021, not every booth opens when the festival begins.) This year FOUR booths are opening late, so we’re sharing the list of booths that will not open until August 15th!
Haven’t been to Disney in a minute? Not all caught up on the latest Disney news? Well there have been some BIG announcements this week you need to know about!
EPCOT
From BIG Food & Wine Festival news for EPCOT to a very important Genie+ change, we’ve got all of the latest information wrapped up in one place just for you. So let’s get started!
We’re already thinking about what new eats await us at the 2022 EPCOT Food & Wine Festival!
We’re ready!
Disney just announced the food booths for this year’s fest and we’ve spotted some returning favorites and exciting new ones, too. And now, we know exactly what dishes will be part of the 2022 Food & Wine Festival cheese walk!
Nobody panic but…Boyz II Men are coming back to EPCOT soon!
Festival Passports
That’s right folks, Disney had already confirmed dates for the International Food & Wine Festival for 2022, some returning booths, and the return of things like the Eat to the Beat Concert Series, but today we got a look at part of the Eat to the Beat Concert line-up and we have a feeling some of these acts are ones that fans will be THRILLED to see!
If you’re a Disney World fan, you probably know about the wonders that are EPCOT Festivals. There is a festival running in EPCOT almost every day of the year at this point!
EPCOT sunsets are EXTRA beautiful!
The year starts with EPCOT Festival of the Arts, then EPCOT Flower and Garden Festival, then EPCOT Food and Wine Festival (the BIG one), and ends with EPCOT Festival of the Holidays. No matter the fest, there are a lot of food and drinks to try and that can get EXPENSIVE — so, how should YOU budget?
If you know DFB, you know we are big fans of foodie festivals.
Amare Cocktail
If you agree with us, then you probably know all about the EPCOT Food & Wine Festival and the Disney California Adventure Food & Wine Festival. But did you catch our recent post about another annual food and wine event at the Swan and Dolphin Resort in Walt Disney World? Keep reading to see what feature is returning to the event for the first time since 2019!
You’ve gotten your dining reservations, booked the perfect hotel room, and even bought your tickets. But if you’ve forgotten to do 1 critical thing, you could find yourself in SERIOUS TROUBLE when you arrive at Disney World.
Magic Kingdom
What are we talking about? Well, Park Pass Reservations of course! While you will need a valid theme park ticket to get into the Most Magical Place on Earth, you’ll ALSO need a valid Park Pass Reservation for the parks you want to visit. Some days, especially during a slow time of the year, you may be able to score a reservation to your desired theme park at the last-minute, easy peasy. But there are some dates in 2022 that could be EXTREMELY popular or busy, and you’ll want to make your theme park reservations for them as far in advance as you can. So, don’t be the White Rabbit (late for a very important date) — let’s look at the 2022 dates for which you’ll want to book your theme park reservations NOW!
