Welcome back to planDisney, Crystal! Thank you for trusting us with answering your vacation planning questions.
The
International Food & Wine Festival at EPCOT has been held each year in the fall since 1996. Each year, it seems to get just a little bit longer, allowing even more guests a chance to experience the delicious and unique flavors that are available.
In 2021, the festival dates are July 15 to November 20. This is an earlier start date than ever before! As a bonus, many of the booths that were scheduled to open up on October 1 actually opened earlier, much to the delight of my son. We were at Walt Disney World last week, and he had an extensive list of things to eat. He was pleasantly surprised to find that he could get most of them earlier than planned.
The Disney Parks Blog is a great resource for all things regarding the International Food & Wine Festival. They are usually the first to know the dates and ALL the great things to eat. I found this
Foodie Guide to be very helpful for planning what to eat this year. The dates for 2022 will probably be released in the Spring (this year’s Disney Parks Blog
article was dated March 31).
I hope you can plan a trip to experience this fantastic feasting festival! We wouldn’t miss it!
Happy Traveling (& eating),
Tracy
