Let’s go!

As of July 16th, two different types of dining reservations have opened for the EPCOT International Food & Wine Festival — Eat to the Beat dining packages and the Parisian Breakfast at Chefs de France. Both of these offerings are available exclusively for the festival.

Dining Packages

The Eat to the Beat dining packages are a way that you can get guaranteed seating during the Eat to the Beat concert series. These concerts are free with EPCOT admission, and take place three times nightly. More famous bands and artists perform Fridays through Mondays, while local bands perform Tuesday through Thursday evenings. Those famous bands can be VERY popular, so getting reserved seating for a show could be a game-changer if there’s someone you really want to see.

Showtimes happen at 5:30PM, 6:45PM, and 8PM nightly. The following restaurants now have reservations open through the Disney World website and My Disney Experience app for dining packages:

Regal Eagle Smokehouse also offers dining packages same-day. Stop by first thing in the morning to see if there are any available on the day of your visit.

Eat to the Beat

The other dining reservation that opens today is for the Parisian Breakfast at Chefs de France in the France Pavilion. This is a buffet available exclusively during the Food & Wine Festival with traditional French breakfast fare. It was a brand-new offering in 2025 and we had a delightful time trying it out.

Mimosa at Parisian Breakfast

It’s a pre-paid meal that’s available on Fridays and Saturdays starting on August 28th, 2026. The cost is $67.95 per adult, so this is not a cheap meal, but it could be a great way to relax a bit during your EPCOT visit.
