Helpful Tips for the EPCOT Food & Wine Festival

Grab a passport, which serves as your guide to the festival.
  • Plan your trip around the World Showcase and prioritize the dishes you would like to try, so you don’t fill up too quickly!
  • If you don’t feel like carrying around the festival passport, you can also find a digital version of the festival guide in the My Disney Experience app.  
  • Some of the items are marked as plant-based or gluten/wheat-friendly on the menus.  However, if you have other dietary concerns, speak to a cast member before placing your order.  
  • There are four new Global Marketplaces for 2023: Char & Chop, Wine & Edge, Bubbles & Brine, and Swirled Showcase. Menus and more details on these marketplaces are to come!
  • Bring your own bottle of water or a reusable bottle that you can fill at locations like Connections Eatery.  The Global Marketplaces have bottled water for sale, but most if not all are unable to provide the free cups of ice water that you typically find at quick service dining locations.  
  • Brew-Wing is located in the Odyssey, so it’s a nice indoor spot for some much-needed AC on hot days.  There are also tables and chairs, which make for much more comfortable dining spots than the traditional EPCOT trash can.  
  • Fans of the Muppets have another reason to visit Brew-Wing; This year, Brew-Wing is themed after Muppet Labs, and Dr. Bunsen Honeydew and his assistant Beaker are inviting guests to their taste-testing headquarters!
  • For Emile’s Fromage Montage, you do not need to get five different cheese dishes to get your dessert.  You can purchase more than one of the same dish, and it will still qualify as another stamp on your passport. 
  • With more popular musicians, you may want to line up early for Eat to the Beat.  For a guaranteed seat to an Eat to the Beat Concert performance, you can reserve an Eat to the Beat Dining Package that includes a meal at a select EPCOT restaurant and reserved seating at American Gardens Theatre.

If you’re looking to plan a last-minute trip for the EPCOT Food & Wine Festival, check out some of the great confirmed reservations that are available through the DVC Rental Store!
