EPCOT FOOD AND WINE OVERVIEW
2022 is the EPCOT International Food & Wine Festival's 27th year. While your EPCOT admission is all that's needed to participate in this popular event, it's important to know that guests must not only have valid theme park admission, but also a theme park reservation in the Disney Park Pass reservation system in order to enter the theme park.
Disney has announced that returning Global Marketplace locations will include The Swanky Saucy Swine, Appleseed Orchard, Hops & Barley, Earth Eats hosted by Impossible and Shimmering Sips hosted by CORKCICLE.
The Eat to the Beat Concert Series presented by Florida Blue Medicare will return in 2022 with internationally recognized artists as well as local bands offering fun tunes on the America Gardens Theatre stage. The full lineup will be announced at a later date.
Epcot Food & Wine Festival Highlights
The Festival Welcome Center typically features a Wine Shop where guests can purchase their favorite selections as well as other event souvenirs.
More than 30 global marketplaces featuring food, wine, and beer will be at the Festival. The appetizer-sized portions typically range in price from $4.00 – $8.00 and provide the perfect opportunity to try traditional cuisine from around the world.
Additional tables will be in place throughout the park where guests can stop and enjoy festival dishes.
The International Food and Wine Festival plays host to seminars, tasting events, and delicious meals overseen by top Disney Chefs as well as renowned guest Chefs.
2022 EPCOT FOOD AND WINE HIGHLIGHTS
- Global Marketplaces featuring fan-favorite dishes will be returning throughout the park in July, with more marketplaces opening in the fall.
- Remy's Ratatouille Hide & Squeak scavenger hunt will return for 2022. Kids of all ages can search for 15 little Remy statuettes with maps and stickers available for purchase at Port of Entry, Pin Central, and World Traveler at International Gateway. Completed maps can be shown at Disney Traders to choose a prize for your efforts, courtesy of Chef Remy, of course.
- Emile’s Fromage Montage will once again invite guests to sample a variety of delicious cheese dishes that are served in inventive ways. Purchase any 5 cheese dishes from select Global Marketplaces listed in the Festival Passport and collect a stamp for each purchased dish. Once you’ve collected all 5 stamps, bring the stamped Festival Passport to Shimmering Sips for a specialty prize unique to the Epcot International Food & Wine Festival.
- Tip: Purchase a Food & Wine Festival [Disney] gift card to pay your way around the Festival. It's much easier than trying to dig for cash or credit cards as you go from location to location. With a $250 activation, you’ll receive a specially themed lanyard and carrying sleeve (pictured above). These cards can also be used at select Disney destinations nationwide.

As with all Disney events, themed entertainment is part of the festivities. In years past, the musical acts at the Food and Wine Festival have been called the "Eat to the Beat” concert series. So far for 2021, a few bands have been announced and Disney is calling them "America Gardens Bandstand" so it remains to be seen if "Eat to the Beat" will return.
The America Gardens Bandstand is presented by Florida Blue Medicare this year. The live music concert series will take place Friday through Monday evenings. Guests can watch as local bands from across Central Florida take to the stage at America Gardens Theatre, playing popular songs of yesterday and today.
The following is the line-up of performers that have been announced so far for 2021:
