food IS a theme park
We’re already smack dab in the middle of EPCOT’s International Food and Wine Festival, but did you know there are four more booths that have yet to debut?
Food and Wine is here!
Disney will open these new booths in celebration of the company’s 100th anniversary, starting on September 22nd! Bubbles & Brine, Char & Chop, Wine & Wedge, and Swirled Showcase will be here before you know it — and now, three of the booths’ menu boards (with prices!) are up in the park. Come take a look!
The EPCOT International Food & Wine Festival is full of great eats, amazing drinks, awesome merchandise, fun activities, and awesome entertainment. But wait…there’s one more ingredient you need to add to the mix — STRESS. 😟😟😟
EPCOT’s Food and Wine Festival
That’s right — despite all of the fun you can have at the Festival, a trip to this popular experience can also include a huge (read: overwhelming) amount of stress. What dishes are worth your money? How much do you need to budget? What is the best of the best to try? Where do you even start?! There’s a lot to consider — but take a deep breath. We can help!
We’ve tried some unique food at Disney World over the years.
EPCOT
There was that time we had a whole octopus tentacle in our drink. Another time, we ate a Sea Captain Catch sandwich that was served on a black bun. Recently, Disney introduced a whole new set of fun snacks for us to try at the EPCOT International Food and Wine Festival. But one item, in particular, has the internet abuzz, and we think it might be the best (and also maybe kind of the WORST) thing they’ve ever made. Enter the Pickle Milkshake.
Are you ready?
EPCOT International Food and Wine Festival
EPCOT’s International Food and Wine Festival starts tomorrow, July 27th, 2023! We’re going to be there trying out all of the new food and drinks and bringing you tons of reviews throughout the day. But, a few of this year’s Outdoor Kitchens have a delayed opening, so we’ll have to wait a while before we can try them out. We know that Bubbles & Brine, Char & Chop, Wine & Wedge, and Swirled Showcase will be opening on September 22nd, 2023 in celebration of the Walt Disney Company’s 100th Anniversary. We’ve also had a look at the menus of these booths to come. But, there are still a few details about these booths that we have been waiting on. This week, however, Disney dropped a new clue about where one of these booths might end up — and it involves a mysterious renovation of a former dining location.
It seems like EPCOT has a festival for every type of Disney fan.
EPCOT
There’s the classic EPCOT Food and Wine Festival in the Fall, the International Festival of the Holidays in the winter, the International Festival of the Arts at the beginning of the year, and the current festival — International Flower and Garden Festival. We’ve already talked about how Disney is raising ticket prices in 2023, and have seen things like Genie+ reach record highs — but have rising prices affected the cost of our beloved EPCOT festivals? Let’s take a look at what we know.
BE WARNED: Reading this post may make you very, very, very, very, VERY hungry. 🤤 You’re willing to read it? You’re ready to hear your stomach grumble in anticipation of all of the amazing snacks you might get to try? Okay then, let’s continue!

2021 EPCOT Food and Wine Festival
The Food and Wine Festival begins on July 14th this year and runs allllll the way until November 19th, so you have plenty of time to visit the park and try out some delicious eats. Coming back to the festival this year is the Eat to the Beat Concert Series, as well as Remy’s scavenger hunt and Emile’s Cheese Crawl! But, what we’re REALLY excited about is the FOOD, and we now have all of the FULL MENUS that will be at the festival booths!
The 2021 EPCOT Food & Wine Festival has been going on for quite some time, but a number of booths just opened recently!
The Brazil booth has opened!
While many of the booths opened back when the Festival began in July, and more followed in August, some booths just opened on October 1st, the day that marks the start of the 50th Anniversary celebrations in Disney World. One of the booths that just opened recently is the Brazil booth, and it’s FULL of returning items and some big fan favorites!
You know how some weeks it feels like not that much happens, and other weeks it feels like a THOUSAND news stories all got released at once? Well, this week was definitely the latter type.
Magic Kingdom
