Do you know how many days the EPCOT International Food & Wine Festival is held? It originally started as just 30 days in length, and has grown with such popularity. The 2025 festival is 90 days long, but there are so many more snacks to choose from. While you may not be able to enjoy all of the menu items in one day, did you know that Park Hopper Tickets can allow you to move from park to park in the same day? EPCOT is the perfect place to end your evening with a refreshing drink, food to munch on, and a nighttime spectacular that is awe inspiring.
We have official dates for the festival, a general line-up for the 2025 Eat to the Beat Concert Series, and even the Emile’s Fromage Montage line up.
The festival begins August 28, 2025 and continues daily through November 22, 2025. Enjoying the festival is included in a valid park admission to EPCOT. There are Food & Wine Marketplaces spread throughout the entire park, over 35 Marketplaces to be exact. The menus will feature a wide variety of options that also include plant based options and even kid-friendly options. There will of course be some fan favorites returning for the 2025 festival.
Emile’s Formage Fontange is a fun tasting activity, but it does cost extra. The information is included in the festival passport, but to participate and receive the special treat guests must purchase select cheese dishes from various vendors and collect their respective stamps in the passport. Return the completed passport to a participating location to receive the completion treat. Three of the options include Fall Fruit Cheesecake at Milled & Mulled, Pão de Queijo (Brazilian Cheesebread) at the Brazil Marketplace, and Griddled Cheese with Pistachios and Honey at the Greece Marketplace.
Not many attractions receive a different surprise overlay for the season, but at EPCOT Living with the Land always has the most amazing surprises. The EPCOT International Food & Wine Festival has a seasonal display of ingredients throughout the attraction. Keep an eye out for other surprises because there have been hidden Mickeys shaped ingredients as well.
At the 2025 EPCOT International Food & Wine Festival there are so many things to experience. From the Kidcot, which has no additional cost, to trying the eats, sweets, and drinks, and not forgetting the live entertainment offered in many different locations, my family could visit EPCOT multiple times during our stay (especially during a festival) and not do absolutely everything.
The festival will begin shortly, and your vacation can kick off with a wonderful day at a Disney water park which is also included in your stay at a Walt Disney World Resort for 2025. Be sure to reach out to Marvelous Mouse Travels to plan your next Disney vacation!
