The EPCOT International Food and Wine Festival is a sought-after destination for foodie families. This year, there are new epic adventures being added to this spectacular festival at Disney’s EPCOT. Kids and adults will both want to join in on the fun between the end of July and the middle of November. Hey, if you plan your trip right, you may be able to combine the magic of the food and wine festival and the holidays at Disney! Keep that in mind, as you see what new epic adventures are going to be waiting for you at the EPCOT International Food and Wine Festival this year.  

New Epic Adventures at the EPCOT International Food and Wine Festival 

Brew-Wing Lab at Odyssey 

Have you ever wanted to do a few experiments with The Muppets? Well, you can when you head over to the Brew-Wing Lab at Odyssey.  

There you can join Dr. Bunsen Honeydew, as well as his assistant, Beaker, in the Muppet Labs. They spend their days creating beverages and scientific snacks. While you won’t be able to do the actual creating, your family can offer to be taste-testers.  

Just think about how you will feel sampling concoctions that include a Pickle Milkshake and the Unnecessarily Spicy Yet Extremely Tasty Scotch Bonnet Pepper-Curry Wings. Maybe the kids won’t be such picky eaters after this new epic adventure!  

Additional Global Marketplaces 

This year, your family will find more than twenty-five Global Marketplaces for your dining pleasure. Old favorites like the Fry Basket and Flavors from Fire will be returning.  

However, there are plenty of new Global Marketplaces to check out. And this fall, four more will be added to commemorate the Disney 100 celebration.  

The new Global Marketplaces will include Swirled Showcase, Bubbles and Brine, Wine and Wedge, and Char and Chop.  

Such deliciousness all in one place for your dining needs!  

New Merchandise for Souvenirs 

You can’t spend time at any of the Disney parks and not take home a souvenir or two! And this year, you will find new souvenirs to choose from at the EPCOT International Food and Wine Festival.  

Some of the new options include a track jacket, mini backpack, and stemless wine glass. Okay, yes, that last one should be on every mom’s list to buy!  

New Live Entertainment 

You may need a break at some point during your visit to EPCOT for this festival. That’s okay, because they have you covered! Simply head over to listen to live music during one of the Eat to the Beat Concert Series sessions.  

You must reserve your spot in advance for these performances. I can help you do just that, as I am personalizing your family vacation itinerary. All you need to do is let me know you want to attend a performance and I will take care of the rest.  

These are some of the new epic adventures you will find when you attend the EPCOT International Food and Wine Festival with your family. They won’t be the only adventures you have during your Disney family vacation though. I will plan many others for you, so you make as many memories as possible during this family trip. I recommend grabbing the grandparents and other relatives to really make this a vacation to remember!
