Hi there, Wanda! Welcome to planDisney.
You are thinking just like me, new friend. You may have even heard me all the way from New Jersey squeal when I first saw the announcement for this year's
EPCOT International Food & Wine Festival. While not all of the menus and food booths have been announced yet,
the Disney Parks Blog did give us a peek at some of the food items that will be available this year. And let me tell you, I've got my eye on the Warm Chocolate Ganache at the Belgium Global Marketplace. But really, there are so many delectable options at the
Global Marketplaces at this festival to choose from.
While not all items at the Global Marketplaces are eligible to be redeemed as a snack on the
dining plans, many items are! Furthermore, they make unique snacks and are often a great value when redeemed through a dining plan! Just look for the "DDP" symbol on the menus that indicate you can use your dining plan snack allocation for an item.
When you're visiting this festival, don't skip over the
Eat to the Beat Concert Series. There are often some really amazing acts and it's included in your theme park ticket. And if you don't want to take a seat for the show, you can always hang out by the America Gardens Theatre, dance and sing your heart out for a few songs, and then make your way to your next attraction. Not that I've ever done this!
Wanda, I hope you enjoy all of your culinary delights during your visit. If you have any other questions,
feel free to reach out!
I wish you many most gratifying days,
Matt
