‘Tis the season for many limited-time treats!
Magic Kingdom
Starting in August and running through the end of the year, we get dozens upon dozens of seasonal treats in Disney World. With Halloween, Christmas, and a host of other holidays throughout those few months, it seems like there’s always something new to try. And if you’re on the hunt for a limited-time offering in Disney’s Hollywood Studios, then we’ve got you covered!
Now available at Woody’s Lunch Box in Toy Story Land is the Pumpkin Lunch Box Tart. This treat looks very similar to other Halloween Lunch Box Tarts we’ve seen in the past, but is it worth snagging? Often, the Lunch Box Tarts at this restaurant can be dry and disappointing. But we’re going to give it a go!
Pumpkin Lunch Box Tart
It’s a pumpkin pie-filled pastry tart with marshmallow fondant, candy corn, and Halloween sprinkles on top for $4.79. The pumpkin flavor kinda reminded us of canned pumpkin, but it had a little bit of sweetness mixed in from the fondant on top.
It’s very Halloween-ish!
It was surprisingly soft and the sugary flavors worked nicely with the pumpkin and the pastry. You’ll need to like sweet treats to enjoy this, but we definitely thought it was one of the better Lunch Box Tarts from this location!

We’ll be on the lookout for more Halloween snacks coming soon in Hollywood Studios. For now, you can find many more treats in Magic Kingdom and at the Disney World hotels!

It may be time to change your EPCOT game plan.
EPCOT International Food and Wine Festival
The 2024 EPCOT International Food and Wine Festival kicks off on August 29th, and longtime festival-goers are already pouring over the list of booths and entertainment this year to plan their festival experience. However, it might be wise to keep in mind that the festival is going to look a wee bit different than in years past.
The heart of the Food and Wine Festival will always be the food booths spread throughout the park. At these booths, you will find food and drinks from around the World. Each booth offers unique bites and oftentimes desserts along with beer, wine, or a cocktail!

In previous years, most of these booths have been centered around the World Showcase. In fact, this has led many to skip the front of the park entirely and spend their festival day entirely in World Showcase. However, things are bit different in 2024.
Swirled Showcase
This year, there are several new and revamped returning locations spread out through World Celebration, World Discovery, and World Nature (AKA the three neighborhoods that make up the former Future World). These include two booths in the new Communicore Hall (Macatizers and the Festival Favorites Menu), Coastal Eats near Mission Space, The Fry Basket and Flavors From Fire near Refreshment Station, and Brew-Wings Lab at the Odyssey.
EPCOT’s CommuniCore Hall
In addition, Sunshine Seasons and Connections Eatery will also feature some festival-exclusive offerings.
Sunshine Seasons
If your usual plan for the Food and Wine Festival is to head straight to World Showcase, you’re going to miss a TON! So, we suggest switching up that game plan.
We have all of the booths and menus on our sites. So you can plan ahead and figure out which booths you want to hit.
We will also be reporting LIVE from the festival. So you will be able to follow along here and on our socials. On top of all of that, we will released our annual BEST of the FEST so you know exactly what is worth your time in money. All of this should help you plan out what booths you need to hit and will help you make sure you don’t miss something special that isn’t in World Showcase.
Stay tuned to DFB for further Food and Wine updates.
Food & Wine Festival can be a bummer. You stand in line waiting for what looks like the perfect treat, and it’s a bust. But fear not, dear friends, we compiled EVERYTHING you need (and the things to avoid!) to plan the ULTIMATE EPCOT Food & Wine Festival experience.
If you’re planning a day or a week at the festival, we’ve got every performance, activity, and tasty nosh detailed out so you can make the most of your time and money. Listen, it’s a tough job eating and documenting the nearly 200 bites and sips, but we do it all for YOU!
