The EPCOT International Food and Wine Festival is a beloved annual event at Walt Disney World, offering a delectable array of global cuisine, fine wines, and unique experiences. While the 2023 festival has recently ended, anticipation is already building for the Food And Wine Festival 2024. Although official dates haven’t been released, historically the festival begins in late summer and extends into the fall, overlapping with the holiday season at other Disney parks. This presents a unique opportunity for visitors to experience both the culinary delights of the Food and Wine Festival and the festive cheer of events like Mickey’s Very Merry Christmas Party.
A highlight of the festival is the exclusive merchandise, featuring themed apparel, kitchenware, and souvenirs. Attendees eagerly seek out these limited-edition items to commemorate their experience. In previous years, popular items have included drink sleeves, apparel featuring the festival logo, and unique home goods inspired by global cuisine.
While attending the festival in person is the best way to experience the full range of offerings, there are options for those who can’t make it to EPCOT. In the past, some merchandise has become available online through the Disney Store towards the end of the festival. Keep an eye on the official Disney Parks Blog and social media channels for announcements regarding Food and Wine Festival 2024 merchandise availability.
Another option for acquiring exclusive merchandise is to connect with friends or family members who may be visiting EPCOT during the festival. Florida residents with annual passes might be willing to purchase specific items on your behalf.
Planning ahead is key for experiencing the Food and Wine Festival. As the 2024 dates draw closer, be sure to check the official Walt Disney World website for updates on event details, park hours, and dining reservation information. Stay tuned for announcements regarding the entertainment lineup, culinary demonstrations, and special events that will be featured at the Food and Wine Festival 2024.
