Navigating the Festival

Included with EPCOT admission are the Eat to the Beat concerts, cultural adventures, the Marketplace Festival Passport, and all EPCOT attractions and park entertainment. (Find our COMPLETE GUIDE to EPCOT here!)

Don’t forget to pick up your free EPCOT Food and Wine Festival Passport!

They are available at the individual World Showcase food booths, and you may find them at the park entrance, as well. 

You can refer to this easy-to-carry guide throughout your time at the Festival and keep track of everything you taste and sip.

“Let Your Taste Be Your Guide!” 

You’ll find a Digital Festival Guidebook in the My Disney Experience app, too.

There is also an interesting feature might be helpful to guests with food allergies or intolerances.

When you click the “Allergy Friendly Menus,” you can find items that are friendly for guests with gluten/wheat, egg, soy, peanut/tree nut, milk, sesame, fish/shellfish and other allergies. (Please be aware that Disney has stated the following regarding Festival Marketplace Booths: “We use reasonable efforts in our sourcing, preparation and handling procedures to avoid the introduction of the named allergen into menu choices. While we take steps to prevent cross-contact, we do not have separate allergy-friendly kitchens and are unable to guarantee that a menu item is completely free of allergens.”)

You can also access the Allergy-Friendly Menu with the QR code provided in the Festival Passport, as pictured above.

EPCOT Food and Wine Festival Entertainment

Eat to the Beat Concerts

Throughout the EPCOT Food and Wine Festival, popular bands from recent decades take the stage at the American Gardens Theatre in The American Adventure Pavilion for the Eat to the Beat Concert Series.

These concerts are free with EPCOT admission, and typically take place three times per evening — at 5:30PM, 6:45PM, and 8PM.

Iconic bands and artists can be seen performing Fridays through Mondays, while local bands perform Tuesday through Thursday evenings. 

The popular Eat to the Beat Dining Packages are an optional add-on that entitles guests to breakfast, lunch, or dinner at select EPCOT restaurants, and include same-day reserved seating at the Eat to the Beat Concert that evening.

These small gift cards function the same as a regular gift card, but you can strap it on your wrist to avoid having to dig through your wallet or purse while making your Festival food purchases. You can have it activated or loaded at a merchandise location with your desired amount, strap it on, and move towards your next Food Booth, ready to go!

You’ll also find other merchandise locations and kiosks around World Showcase.

Extra Festival FUN

Keep your eyes peeled for the always-stylish Daisy Duck, who often makes appearances near the International Gateway (between the United Kingdom and France pavilions) in her special Food & Wine Festival outfit!

Check the My Disney Experience app to see if Daisy is greeting guests in EPCOT while you’re there.

Living with the Land during the Food and Wine Festival

The Living with the Land ride in World Nature gets a new look during the EPCOT Food & Wine Festival!

You’ll get to see some of the ingredients that are being used for dishes at the various food booths this year and throughout Disney World.

Living with the Land runs from park open to close, so there are plenty of chances to catch this relaxing and educational ride!

Mini Food and Wine Festival

If you think that you and us here at the DFB are the only ones excited about the Food and Wine Festival… think again!

If you’ve ever visited the Germany Pavilion in EPCOT, you’ve probably noticed the tiny village in the pavilion that has its own miniature train running through it. This little village gets special banners added to its streetlamps for every festival, and now the EPCOT Food and Wine Festival banners have been added to it!

It’s a small touch, but also a great example of some of the extra magic you can enjoy throughout the event.

Food and Wine Festival-themed Nighttime Lighting at Spaceship Earth

EPCOT’s iconic Spaceship Earth in World Celebration presents a limited-time look and presentation for the Festival!

The musical light show in recent years has been inspired by Beauty and the Beast — specifically, themed to the song, “Be Our Guest!” The show begins when it gets dark outside and plays several times each night.

Food and Wine Festival Disney PhotoPass MagicShots

Disney PhotoPass Photographers can take what might seem like an ordinary shot and make it extraordinary with a touch of magic. You can catch photographers who are just waiting to transform your photos with Magic Shots throughout the Food & Wine Festival!

Festival guests can take advantage of several different photo opportunities — including digitally enhanced Magic Shots — all centered around food! Simply ask any Disney PhotoPass photographers at the following locations for the Festival Magic Shots they can take:

• PhotoPass Photographers throughout World Showcase — Chef Remy Magic Shot

Florida Blue Food & Wine Festival Lounge

Guests can register to access the free Florida Blue Medicare Lounge! Here, you can enjoy a nice, cool (and very relaxed) spot that is away from the sun and the crowds. It’s located at the space for Restaurant Marrakesh tucked in the back of the Morocco Pavilion.

Guests need to register for the lounge and can find the link be searching “Florida Blue” on the My Disney Experience app (just search “Florida Blue”) or by visiting the Florida Blue website directly, but it’s totally free. 

Inside the lounge, you’ll find ample seating and even art activities!

Complimentary beverages such as Moroccan mint tea, cold brew, water, sparkling water, and a variety of juices are also on offer. The lounge is open from 12–6PM each day. 

Additionally, the lounge gives out a total of 75 wristbands each day on a first-come, first-served basis for the three Eat to the Beat shows (25 per show), which will guarantee you a seat at that night’s show! Only one wristband per person is allowed per day, and on days where more popular artists are performing, it’s fair to assume that a lot of guests will be rope dropping this spot.
