Hi, Bridget! The Eat to the Beat concert series is absolutely free, no tickets required, once you have gained entrance to Epcot. You will need a ticket to get into the theme park for the day, but the concert is included with the price of admission to the park.
The
Eat to the Beat Concert Series lineup this year is incredible. You'll be able to catch bands like .38 Special, Wilson Phillips, the Pointer Sisters - oh my! I hardly know when to plan my trip with such great talent!
There is an option to purchase a dining package, which will include priority admission into the theater, along with dinner at a participating restaurant. This will help you avoid the lines and guarantee seating inside the theater. This might be a huge benefit when the most popular groups are performing, but you are always welcome to wait in the standby line or listen from behind the seating area, just outside the theater. Packages go on sale beginning July 30th.
I hope you get to enjoy one of your favorite musical performers, along with some tasty Food and Wine festival treats.
