2025 DETAILS EXPECTED THIS SPRING. The International Food and Wine Festival is the tastiest thing to hit EPCOT each year - and with multiple pavilions highlighting cuisines from around the globe every day, that's saying a lot.

EPCOT is the place at Disney Parks for foodies. This year there are even more culinary creations and ways to celebrate with unique events.

Walt Disney World invites you to “Take a Taste Tour Across 6 Continents and More” at EPCOT’s International Food and Wine Festival from August 29 to November 23, 2024.

Global marketplaces open daily from 11:00 a.m. until park closing unless noted otherwise.

For the full EPCOT Food & Wine Festival experience we suggest:

• 3+ Day Hopper Ticket to devote quality time in EPCOT, even if you want to start your day in Magic Kingdom
• A stay at one of EPCOT’s closest hotels including Disney’s Yacht Club Resort, Disney’s Beach Club Resort, or Disney’s BoardWalk Inn

The International Food & Wine Festival is an annual event perfect for families, couples, friend trips, and everyone in between!

The main highlights are sampling your way through six continents, exclusive entertainment options, and of course the can’t-miss attractions at EPCOT. You’ll want to bring a big appetite and plenty of friends to share in the taste testing.
