This year’s Epcot International Flower and Garden Festival may still be happening (and running all the way through July 5), but that isn’t stopping Disney from announcing more festival dates.
The dates for the 2023 Epcot International Food and Wine Festival are here! You can enjoy some food and wine beginning July 27 through November 18.
Food and Wine celebrates, you guessed it, food and wine. If you’re a wine lover, this is the festival to visit, because there is a lot of it.
It’s a long festival, meaning you’ll have plenty of time to try all of the things, especially the many global marketplaces.

There will be over 25 global marketplaces, including the return of The Fry Basket, Flavors from Fire, Canada, India, and Spain.
Like in 2022, not all of the food booths will open at once, with some marketplaces opening “later during the festival as summer turns to fall.”
The Eat to the Beat Concert Series will also return this year to the America Gardens Theatre stage. Stay tuned for more details about the lineup.
The following is also returning:
- Remy’s Ratatouille Hide & Squeak scavenger hunt
- Pluto’s Pumpkin Pursuit, a special pumpkin scavenger hunt from September 29 through October 31
- Emile’s Fromage Montage
- Exclusive festival merchandise, including apparel, home décor, trading pins, and more
