Booking for Epcot Food and Wine Festival events opens on June 14th at 7AM for the general public, and on June 12th at 9AM for select affinity groups like DVC members, Annual Passholders, and Tables in Wonderland members; and that means it’s TIME TO PLAN TODAY!
If you want to make the most of your visit to this uber-popular festival, you can’t wait until you step foot into the park to sort it all out. Last year’s festival had 35 food booths and more demonstrations, seminars, and special events than ever before, and 2018 is shaping up to be even bigger!
Here’s what you need to know about booking Epcot Food and Wine Festival events…
We know what you’re thinking: “DFB, are you for realz? Two phones and the internet? That’s straight up kookydooks. ” Friend, while we appreciate the Moana reference, the reality of Food and Wine special events is that they sell out super fast. So if you’re not feeling flexible and willing to take whatever is left after the first mad rush, you’ll want to do what you can to get into that rush yourself.

Has anyone booked the Parisian Breakfast? I was told yesterday they had no information about this event.
DFB Sarah says
Alex: This is what we’ve learned about thusfar this morning. Working on gathering more information now as well.
Dana says
Hi Alex, i just spoke to DVC member services and was able to book the Parisian breakfast for 9/29 if that helps.
DFB Sarah says
Alex: Confirmed information about the Parisian Breakfast is up on our Food and Wine Special Events Page!
Mark says
Thanks for all your efforts. All booked. 10 demos and 2 lunches.
Rod says
It looks like all the signature dining events have been cancelled?
Is there a trick to finding out about ALL the offerings? I don’t see the Parisian Breakfast offered on the Epcot website?
Erin says
I was able to book 3 culinary demos and 2 Brunches with the chef for Oct 21 and Nov 11!
Alex says
Thanks Dana,
However we were looking for a date in early September and the event does not start until 22nd. Yuck!
DFB Sarah says
Erin, it sounds like you’re going to have a blast!
DFB Sarah says
Rod, unfortunately all of the Adventures in Signature Dining events have been eliminated this year. As for where to find out about all of the available offerings, we’ve assembled info on Special Events and on Low-Cost Demonstrations and Seminars on our Food and Wine Main Page.
DFB Sarah says
Mark, that sounds like a food fabulous trip! 🙂 Enjoy!
Barb says
Thanks for all the specifics on all the seminars and events. I was able to book a “Make It” seminar, which I couldn’t find on the official Disney website, because of your information.
DFB Sarah says
Barb: So happy our info helped! Enjoy!
Kelsey says
Thank you! We are all booked for absolutely everything we wanted this year! I think because nothing was posted on Disney we actually only waited on hold for twenty minutes this year, which was incredible. Can’t wait for Nov 5 Hibatchi!!
