Epcot International Food & Wine Festival Returns August 29th, 2019

Hi everyone!

We now know the 2019 Epcot International Food & Wine Festival dates! The event will run from August 29 – November 23, 2019. At 87 days long, it will be the longest Food & Wine Festival at Epcot ever. Just to refresh everyone’s memory, Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge will open that day as well, so I expect this to be the busiest time I’ve seen it for the end of August into September time frame. Mickey’s Not-So-Scary Halloween Party begins on August 16th, 2019, so a lot will be going on across the Walt Disney World parks.

Not much has been announced for the Epcot International Food & Wine Festival yet. The Eat to the Beat Concert Series will run for much of that time, but will end on November 19th, 2019 to make way for Candlelight Processional preparations. I hope the beautiful themed chocolate displays will be back, that is one of my favorite things to see each year at the festival! More information should be released soon as we are already less than 5 months from the festival.
