Harvest Hollow, the themed playground for the 2026 EPCOT Food & Wine Festival, was still closed off this morning when EPCOT opened for the first day of the festival.

Harvest Hollow Playground

The playground along the walkway between the Imagination! pavilion and World Showcase at EPCOT closed earlier this month so it can be transformed for the festival.

It should have opened today, August 27, as it’s the first day of the festival. However, when we arrived at the park we noticed green scrim still surrounded it. From what we can see, it appears complete. However, there may be some work that still needs to be done on the ground.

Check out this year’s festival passport, and stay tuned for more coverage today!
