The EPCOT International Food & Wine Festival is HERE, and we’ve had a blast checking it out so far!
On opening day we tried out ALL the booths available, giving our reviews of each one. We’ve also checked out the entertainment, scoured through the merchandise, and even scoped out the scavenger hunt! Most of the time, guests think about enjoying all these festival activities in the afternoon or evening…but what about if you’re there for breakfast? Well, we have good news!
For those who want an “early start” on their day of festival fun, Disney has announced that the Belgium booth will be opening at 8:30AM every day! During that time, you can try out their delicious breakfast eats, like Belgian Waffles topped with either warm chocolate ganache or berry compote and whipped cream, as well as Chilled Mocha Coffee.
All the other global marketplaces (Disney’s fancy verbiage for “food booths”) will open at 11AM daily to start serving food to the hungry EPCOT visitors. During that time, you can check out new hits like The Fry Basket or visit returning favorites like Brew-Wing, Canada, and The Swanky Saucy Swine. YUM!
And you may want to get started at lunchtime if your plan is to make it all the way around the World Showcase! This year, there are more than 30 booths to check out, each with multiple items on the menu. If you want to break it up into two trips, some of the booths aren’t scheduled to open until August 15th.
If you’re visiting the EPCOT Food & Wine Festival soon, make sure to check out our list of festival favorites, as well as the list of all the new food items, so that you don’t miss anything! We’ve got a full guide to this year’s festival that will be a BIG help with planning your trip.
