food IS a theme park
2025 is on the way, and there are a lot of changes coming to Disney World.
EPCOT
Tons of construction will be beginning in Disney World this upcoming year, which means that the parks are certainly going to look different. If you’re planning to spend a lot of time in EPCOT this upcoming year, beware — crowds will likely be heavier than we’ve seen in recent years for a multitude of different reasons!
We’re nearly halfway through the month-long 2024 EPCOT Festival of the Holidays!
EPCOT Festival of the Holidays
After this holiday festival, the EPCOT Festival of the Arts will hit the park from January 17th through February 25th, 2025. While we eagerly await the food menus for the artsy festival, we’re already looking ahead to the following festival — the EPCOT Flower and Garden Festival. Disney has just announced the 2025 dates for the spring festival AND the initial lineup for the exciting entertainment — the Garden Rocks Concert Series!
EPCOT, like the other Disney World parks, is always changing.
2024 Food and Wine Festival
Year by year, month by month, and sometimes even week by week! However, there’s one big offering that makes EPCOT stand out from a food standpoint than the other parks, and that’s the four festivals the park has throughout the year. The current festival, EPCOT’s International Food & Wine Festival, is coming to an end tomorrow, and the park will almost immediately be very different.
We may be in the midst of the EPCOT Food & Wine Festival and still have the Festival of the Holidays to look forward to next month, but that doesn’t mean we can’t get excited about ANOTHER EPCOT festival!
EPCOT Festival of the Arts
That’s right, the EPCOT Festival of the Arts is coming up in early 2025, we just didn’t know when — until now. Disney just announced the dates for this festival and we’re sharing all the details.
When it comes to planning a trip to Disney World, you’ve got it down to a science, right?
EPCOT
You’ve got all the flight details sorted. You know which hotel you’re going to stay at. And you’ve already got your plan of attack for how you’ll tackle all the Disney World eats. Sounds like you’re all set, right? Well, if you’re planning on hitting up EPCOT during one of its many festivals, there’s this new problem and it’s one that we’ve never experienced until now. So let’s talk about it!
EPCOT is known for all the various food options you can try within the park.
EPCOT
Every World Showcase pavilion has cultural snack options, each world in the park has restaurants and snack stands, and then, of course, there are the seasonal festivals that we love SO much. All throughout the year, you can try new snacks or grab your favorite go-to in EPCOT. Since the snack options vary so much and change all throughout the year, there’s always a chance that some aren’t going to be great. We asked our readers what the worst snack was that they’ve had in EPCOT, and we can’t necessarily disagree with the answer.
What’s not to love about EPCOT festivals? Well, we’ll tell you what IS to love, and, if you know us, you know we’ll say it’s the FOOD.
EPCOT Food & Wine Festival
From the EPCOT Festival of the Arts to the EPCOT Flower & Garden Festival to the EPCOT Food & Wine Festival to the EPCOT Festival of the Holidays, we go to the festivals for THE FOOD. Now, don’t get us wrong, we do love the festival entertainment and special events, but really, IT IS ALL ABOUT THE FOOD. Well, Disney is releasing a new cookbook of some fan-favorite festival foods, and we’re sharing three recipes from that book EXCLUSIVELY with you.
EPCOT is a beautiful theme park with lots of outdoor green space.
EPCOT
You’ll find flowers, bushes, trees, and open grass areas. It’s a really neat theme park in that way. This also means that you might find cute wildlife like ducks and other bird species, geckos, and more (and, of course, the sea creatures in the aquarium!). We love all the outdoor spaces most of the time, but there is one problem with all these plants being here that we can’t stop thinking about, and it directly affects all of EPCOT’s festivals.
We’ve got BIG NEWS about the 2024 EPCOT Food & Wine Festival!
