A MAJOR Change is Hitting EPCOT Next Month!

Attention all EPCOT fans! One of the biggest events of the year is officially one month away.

EPCOT Food and Wine Festival

That’s right, the EPCOT Food & Wine Festival is right around the corner, so let’s dive into everything we know about this year’s event so far.

While EPCOT has several festivals throughout the year, Food & Wine might just be the most popular and highly anticipated of them all. This year it will run from August 27th through November 21st, 2026. And we cannot wait to experience all of the incredible food, drinks, and entertainment.

This festival takes you around the countries in World Showcase as you sample food and drinks from around the world. The food is so amazing, but there is also more to this festival than just eating. If you are looking for some entertainment, you can head over to the America Gardens Theater in the American Adventure Pavilion to check out one of the Eat to the Beat Concert Series shows.
