Finally, we’re getting some info about the upcoming festivals in Disney World! With the Epcot Food and Wine Festival Dates announced, we’ve also got news to share about the 2019 Epcot Festival of the Holidays!
Epcot Festival of the Holidays
This popular event is getting bigger and bigger every year, and we’re excited to share that it will take place in 2019 from November 29-December 30!
Returning this year will be the fan-favorite Holiday Kitchens Food Booths, featuring some of the best festival food of the year in Epcot.

And, of course, we’ll be welcoming back the incredible Candlelight Processional for the holiday season this year! This event combines a full orchestra with a massive choir — and celebrity narrators! — to tell the Christmas story three times each night in Epcot’s America Gardens theater.

Any word on when Mickey’s very merry Christmas party is going to be at the Magic Kingdom? I see every date but that one. Thanks !
Will the holiday decorations go up even though the food and wine will still be going till the end of November?
I really hope the Christmas decorations are up during the tail end of the food and wine festival too. ….
For those wondering about the holiday decorations at Epcot: typically these go up around Thanksgiving (November 28, 2019), so with the Festival of the Holidays starting on the 29th, we might expect them to be up just before Thanksgiving.
When do they release the menu items for festival of the holidays?
The Candlelight Processional did not begin until after Thanksgiving last year also but the Holiday Kitchens and decorations were opened on Nov. 18th.
So disappointed and we attended last year in November and we really enjoyed the booths, the tree and all the decorations. We booked 2019 to arrive on Nov. 18th for 8 nights and we will now be missing the holiday season at Epcot.
Any idea or hints on when Mickey’s Very Merry Christmas Party 2019’s open up for bookings selected dates will be for 2019? I have been checking every day and am ready to book.
Veronica we also booked for arrival on the 18th thinking we’d see the holiday decorations. So sad we will miss the holidays
Veronica, we knew by this point last year, so hopefully the Very Merry Christmas Party dates will be released soon!
Heather, last year they released them almost a month ahead of time, so we expect them in late-October. We’ll post when they’re released!
I asked the same question about Mickey’s Very Merry Christmas Party A few days ago – but got no answer from DFB. Glad to see today Veronica got an answer about when dates and ticketing for MVMCP. might be announced. We plan and hope to go to Disney World in December and also to MVMCP for the first time so we are anxious to know when the party dates will be released.! I check my email every day for updates from DFB because I know they will be the first to let us know! Thanks!
Arlene, sorry I missed your question! Glad you’ve got the info you need!
Thanks Sarah! I know you guys are super busy with all the new rides and food info coming out of Disney these days! We appreciate your blog so much and all the hard work you all do! Thanks again! : )
