Epcot Festival Dates for 2024 + An Overview of What to Expect
Epcot hosts four unique festivals throughout the year: the Flower and Garden Festival, the Food and Wine Festival, the Festival of the Arts, and the Festival of the Holidays. These festivals are a great way to experience unique offerings in the park.
Here are a few details for each festival:
- Epcot’s International Flower and Garden Festival: This festival takes place in the Spring and celebrates all things gardening and flowers. The festival’s primary offerings include food booths (kitchens), garden displays (topiaries), and a concert series.
- Epcot’s International Food and Wine Festival, which takes place in the Fall, celebrates international cuisine. This festival offers food booths (marketplaces), wine tastings, and demonstrations from celebrity chefs.
- Epcot’s International Festival of the Arts, which takes place in the winter, celebrates art. Activities range from musical performances to artists displaying elaborate chalk drawings on sidewalks in the park. Additionally, culinary food booths (studios) are available.
- Epcot’s International Festival of the Holidays takes place in the winter and celebrates worldwide holiday traditions. This festival offers food booths (holiday kitchens), storytelling sessions, and Santa from around the world!
