Walt Disney World has just announced that the EPCOT International Food and Wine Festival will begin on July 14th and last until November 19, 2022!

Disney has invited festival guests to prepare their “taste buds to go on an epicurean journey and discover new concepts and menu items at more than 25 Global Marketplaces located throughout EPCOT. Returning favorites will include The Swanky Saucy Swine, Appleseed Orchard, Hops & Barley, Earth Eats hosted by Impossible and Shimmering Sips hosted by CORKCICLE.

They also mentioned that some Global Marketplaces will open a few weeks later, as well, to keep the 129-day event spicy. 

The Eat to the Beat Concert Series presented by Florida Blue Medicare will return this year with internationally recognized artists as well as local bands offering fun tunes on the America Gardens Theatre stage. The full lineup will be announced at a later date.

Additional ways for everyone in the family to join in on the fun include: 

• Embark on a Ratatouille-inspired adventure that’s très magnifique with Remy’s Ratatouille Hide & Squeak. Kids of all ages can search for Remy on a savory scavenger hunt around EPCOT – simply purchase your map and stickers from select festival merchandise locations.
• Try delicious cheeses served in fun ways as part of Emile’s Fromage Montage – collect stamps in the festival passport after eligible purchases at select Global Marketplaces. 
• Commemorate your visit and bring the culinary magic home with official festival event merchandise, including apparel, home décor, trading pins and more.
