Epcot International Food and Wine Festival: A Disney World Review

This year the Epcot International Food and Wine Festival will be held September 14 – November 14, 2016. You are in for a treat, it is known for it’s fabulous food and of course, wine and so much more! This is one of my favorite times of year at Disney World. Epcot is so magical and pretty this time of year. Not to mention the atmosphere is definitely different from any other time of year at Epcot.

Global Marketplaces

Taste your way around the world through the World Showcase with all of the exquisite wine and food in the Global Marketplaces featuring foods from Africa, Australia, Belgium, Brazil, Canada, China, France, Germany, Greece, Hawaii, Ireland, Islands of the Caribbean, Italy, Japan, Mexico, Morocco, New Zealand, Patagonia, Poland, Scotland and South Korea. Not to forget, taste the different crafted beers, champagnes, chocolate, desserts and wines. Don’t forget to bring your ID, it is 21 and older for alcoholic drinks. Also as you taste your way around, pick up a passport, Disney passport actually, and get it stamped every time you try a new cuisine. You can pick up a passport anywhere food and drinks are sold during the Festival.
