Disney+ has released so much original content since it debuted in November of 2019.

We’ve seen incredible Marvel shows like WandaVision and Loki, as well as big blockbuster films like Cruella. And Disney+ is even stepping into the world of classic rock with The Beatles: Get Back, a documentary about one of the most famous bands of all time. The movie’s release had already been pushed back due to the pandemic, and now it’s being delayed once again, but we do know the OFFICIAL days it will premiere!

The Beatles: Get Back will be a three-part documentary that will now premiere exclusively on Disney+ on November 25th, 26th, and 27th of 2021. It was originally supposed to premiere as a film in theaters.

The documentary will be presented as three separate episodes that will each about two hours long. That’s right, music lovers, we get THREE nights of this deep dive into The Beatles, and it all starts on Thanksgiving! 

It will take a look at the making of the Beatles’ final studio album, Let it Be, and show studio footage from 1969 and 1970. There will be over 6 hours of never-before-seen restored footage, including The Beatles’ last live performance!

The doc is directed by Peter Jackson, who is most well known for directing, writing, and producing the Lord of the Rings and The Hobbit trilogies. The Oscar-winning director has spent the past three years restoring and editing the footage for the documentary.

The Beatles: Get Back was originally supposed to come out on September 4th, 2020, and then it was delayed to August 27th, 2021. We’re just happy we finally get to watch never-before-seen clips of the iconic band! We’ll keep you updated on any additional info on the documentary, so stay tuned to DFB!

While this video isn’t focused on the Food and Wine Festival in particular, we do throw in a few festival tips for ya (like when to visit). But if you want MORE festival deets, try one of the videos below!

2. Best of the Fest 2020

Each year, we bring ya the Best of the Fest, highlighting ALL of our favorites from that year’s festival. And this video is allll about the winners from the 2020 Food and Wine Festival!

Now, Disney hasn’t released the 2021 menus yet, so we don’t know which of these eats are returning this year. However, we CAN confirm that some of these booths are returning (like Germany, Hops and Barley, and Appleseed Orchard), so you may want to put those on your must-try list. And of course, we’ll bring you our 2021 Best of the Fest list ASAP!

We visit every EPCOT festival, which means we’ve accumulated some tried-and-true tips over the years! And if you want to hear all our secrets, you’ll want to check out these top tips.

4. Frequently Asked Questions About the Festival

We do our best to answer ALL your Disney World questions — and we’ve been asked some pretty frequently about the Food and Wine Festival! So we gathered ’em all into one handy dandy video for you.

We’ll cover the basics (like what IS the Food and Wine Festival?!) before diving into the nitty-gritty (serving sizes, cost, merchandise, transportation, and more). Again, the Food and Wine Festival is different this year, which means we aren’t seeing those special events that we mention in the video. But you’ll want to watch this for a good idea of what you can expect!
