Is this event Friday and Saturday, 18 & 19, or Saturday and Sunday, 19 & 20?
Yes I can’t wait to attend – just trying to decide on Friday night or Saturday night. Sooooooo excited!!!!!
It’s the 18th and 19th! Thanks!
Hi AJ!
I found this link, which shows the retail prices for all the room packages:
http://www.swandolphinfoodandwineclassic.com/packages/index.html
If you just want to go to the causeway does anyone know the cost and is it all inclusive of foods and drinks?
We’ve gone to all 3 so far. FABULOUS!!! Wouldn’t miss it for the world. Daughter and son-in-law came down last fall. Advised them to make the trip over this event. They did and everyone loved it.
It has gotten bigger and better each year.
Chef Todd English of the Blue Zoo has been there the past 2 years. Can’t recall if he was at the first. He is a hoot. Chats with everyone, takes photos, talks about his food.
Here is a link to a You Tube video of last years event.

Enjoy.

AJ – is it worth it? We will be eating lots of good stuff at Epcot’s Food & Wine Festival this week, but wondered if it’s worth the $80 to try their food?
Wade — It depends on your budget and how much you love sampling different kinds of foods. Some folks enjoy the Swan and Dolphin event even more than Food and Wine in Epcot; but others prefer to stick to Epcot. I’d say check out the menus we have listed for the Food and Wine Classic and see how much of it appeals to you. Personally, I think it’s worth it, but everyone’s budget, family, and time constraints are different. 🙂
Anyone know if there are non alcoholic drinks there at all? We already booked a package, but just found out I’m pregnant! Otherwise, maybe I can bring water, juice, etc?
We booked our trip in October. Staying at the Swan and going to their food and wine classic on Friday night! Can’t wait!! Hoping Todd English is there.
I attempt to attend every year, but without success because they keep changing the dates! DVC members must book 11 moths in advance in order to get an EPCOT resort during the festival!
