Hello there, Holly!
Thanks for stopping by planDisney. Your visit is just a few days away (color me jealous), and I'm happy to dish about all the magical moments waiting to be savored.
The
EPCOT International Food & Wine Festival is one of my favorite times of year to visit the parks, as the food and entertainment can't be beat. I've already used the
Disney Eats Foodie Guide to create my course by course plan of attack for my November visit (it’s quite a tall order), and I'm really hoping I'll get the chance to feast my eyes and ears on the Beach Boys as part of the
Eat to the Beat Concert Series.
But let's get to the main course of your question. In recent years, Florida Blue sponsored a lounge in the Morocco Pavilion, which offered guests a place to relax and recharge between World Showcase adventures. I've scoured the internet and can't seem to find any confirmation that the lounge returned for this year's festival, and I've noticed that the registration page is no longer available on the Florida Blue website. I also reached out to a Cast Member (who shares your name, surprisingly enough), and she was unable to serve up any details.
I know this isn't the answer you hoped for, but it doesn't hurt to pop by in person during your visit to see if anything has changed. If you find it remains closed, CommuniCore Hall and Connections Cafe are great, air-conditioned spots to cool your heels. I'd also recommend finding a shady spot in the Japan Pavilion gardens near Katsura Grill to relax and people-watch with a refreshing cocktail.
SeaBase Aquarium is also quite peaceful if you need a sensory break between all the festival fun and flavors.
Holly, I hope this helps. Please come back and see us again with any additional questions. We're always ready to help cook up a magical vacation.
Magic and memories,
Amy
