Halloween has officially come and gone, and while we’re sad to say goodbye to all the ghosts and ghouls…
…we’re pretty darn excited to welcome the holiday season at Disney World! We’ve already seen holiday decorations pop up at Magic Kingdom, Animal Kingdom, and Hollywood Studios, and we’re counting down the days until the beginning of holiday festivities like the EPCOT Festival of the Holidays! Speaking of which, Disney just announced some pretty big news about this year’s festival!
The 2024 EPCOT International Festival of the Holidays runs from November 29th through December 30th and is full of holiday entertainment, merchandise, and of course — food! This is one of our favorite festivals of the year (okay, we kind of say that about all of them BUT STILL!) and we look forward to it every year. Disney just announced that there will be two new Holiday Kitchen food booths at this year’s festival!
First up, the Experimental Prototype Cookies of Tomorrow will be serving up — what else?! — cookies! The gingerbread triangles that will make up the Spaceship Earth display inside CommuniCore Hall will be available to purchase at this Holiday Kitchen with a decorating kit!
Not only that, but we’ll be able to indulge in some festival favorites from past years at the Favorites of Festivals Past booth! This is located right outside CommuniCore Hall, where the Festival Favorites booth previously was.
We’re still waiting on the FULL menus for the Holiday Kitchens this year — so keep checking back here for those!
In addition to the new food booths, the Glittering Grove Presented by Balsam Hill will also be new this year inside CommuniCore Hall. Take in a beautiful, enchanting Christmas tree forest along with an assortment of souvenirs that will be available to purchase!
And, Festive Fragrances presented by Scentsy will allow visitors to “stroll through a snow globe garden, inspired by Scentsy’s seasonal aromas.” This is also located in CommuniCore Hall during the festival! It seems like Disney is doing a bit more with CommuniCore Hall during this festival than what we’ve seen at the Food & Wine Festival.
And, don’t forget about Mickey’s Very Merry Christmas Party and Jollywood Nights that start earlier in November if you’re still looking to experience that holiday cheer!
In the meantime, we’ll be on the lookout for the latest holiday news from Disney World and more, so make sure you stay tuned to the Disney Food Blog for more updates!
