Hello there Margaret!
It is a pleasure to welcome you to the Disney Parks Moms Panel!
Epcot International Festival of the Arts celebrates visual, culinary and performing arts in weekends that are filled with magic at this amazing Walt Disney World Resort destination.
I have great news for you! The festival was such a huge success this year that it will be returning to Epcot in early 2018. The dates for the 2017 edition were announced around late November of 2016, and the festival was held for six weekends beginning January 13, 2017. I suggest that you check back later this year for more information. The
Disney Parks Blog is also a great source of information regarding all things Disney Parks, and Epcot festivals are always a popular subject. As event dates get closer, keep an eye out for select experiences that might be offered and can be booked during the festival. Some of this year’s opportunities included drawing, watercolor, calligraphy, and floral arrangements interactive workshops, among others.
Final tips: this event is already includd with park admission, so you do not need to purchase a separate ticket. Please note that if any experiences are offered, such as workshops, they will be available at an extra fee.
I hope this helps you while planning, Margaret. Thanks for stopping by, and I hope you have a magical time at Epcot International Festival of the Arts.
See ya real soon!
