Treat Yourself to a Flavorful Journey at the EPCOT International Food & Wine Festival Presented by CORKCICLE, Beginning July 15

This summer, you can embark on a tasty tour across six continents at the EPCOT International Food & Wine Festival presented by CORKCICLE® at Walt Disney World Resort. This delicious celebration, which kicks off July 15 and runs through Nov. 20, features a full menu of new flavors and sips along with live entertainment, family activities and more. That’s 129 days of fun for the entire family!

Global Marketplaces will serve up a host of
international flavors, including fan-favorite dishes from Hawai’i, Australia,
Germany, Canada and Greece, as well as new spicy, savory and sweet plates to
please your palate. We’ll have more details on specific menu items in an
upcoming Foodie Guide, but there are new Global Marketplace concepts coming to
Morocco, The American Adventure and throughout the park in July, with even more
marketplaces opening in the fall. 

CORKCICLE is the presenting sponsor for this year’s festival,
and if you visit Shimmering Sips Global Marketplace and four other
locations during the event, you’ll discover several sparkling beverage options available
for purchase in an exclusive keepsake CORKCICLE premium beverage container.

You can also commemorate your visit and bring the culinary
magic home with other official event merchandise created just for the festival,
including apparel, home décor, trading pins and more.

Popular entertainment is back too,
with performances by Voices of Liberty, Mariachi Cobre and Jammin’ Chefs. The
festival will also open with America Gardens Bandstand presented by Florida
Blue Medicare, a live-music concert series performed Friday through Monday
evenings. Local bands from across Central Florida will take to the America
Gardens Theatre stage, playing popular songs of yesterday and today.

For families, Remy’s
Ratatouille Hide & Squeak will send kids of all ages on a savory
scavenger hunt around the festival. Another way for families to have fun together
is by participating in Emile’s Fromage Montage. You’ll find new ways to
experience cheese when you purchase five participating dishes from select
Global Marketplaces, including a passionfruit cheesecake with toasted macadamia
nuts. Collect five stamps and scurry over to Shimmering Sips for a prize!

The festival is available with valid theme park admission and a park reservation for the same date. Keep checking back with us here on the Disney Parks Blog for more details. You can also visit TasteEPCOT.com and keep an eye out for #TasteEPCOT on social channels for more info.
