A HUGE Change Hits EPCOT Next Week

Fasten your seatbelts because things are changing in Disney World!

EPCOT

So yes, we’re getting an expansion AND a new land in Magic Kingdom, a whole new land in Animal Kingdom, and a new show AND a new land in Hollywood Studios. EPCOT has a whole new version of Test Track to look forward to in 2025. However, there’s one change in EPCOT that’s coming sooner than you think: NEXT WEEK. We’re just wanting to remind you about it so you’re not caught by surprise.

On November 23rd, the EPCOT Food & Wine Festival will officially come to an end. The festival began on August 29th (a bit later than in previous years), but it’s had a good run and it’s almost time to say goodbye. If you’re planning on visiting any of the festival’s food booths, you need to get to EPCOT quickly!

We were at the festival on DAY one (and since then, too) and we’ve tried out every single food booth: here’s a list of ALL of our reviews. If you’re just looking for our favorites, though, we’ve got them right here.

We’ve really enjoyed the festival this year, but we’re ready for what comes next. On November 29th — just a week later — a NEW festival begins. That’s the EPCOT Festival of the Holidays, AND WE ARE SO READY FOR IT. The Festival of the Holidays celebrates the holiday season with food booths, and some fun holiday entertainment like the storytellers, the special lighting show on Spaceship Earth, the Candlelight Processional, and more.
