The EPCOT International Festival of the Arts is happening now through February 23, 2026! Guests can look forward to artfully crafted food and drinks at 18 food booths and 48 new menu items, Disney on Broadway performances, live art demonstrations, and lots of unique Disney art available for purchase.
The menu offerings in World Showcase’s France pavilion are always a favorite and often a mix of new dishes and returning favorites. This year’s Festival of the Arts is no exception, and I’m happy to report that it did not disappoint!
Frozen French Martini – Grey Goose Vodka, Chambord Liqueur, DOLE pineapple juice, Minute Maid orange juice, and grape juice with lemon-lime foam – $15.50
The Frozen French Martini is a returning festival favorite. The serving size is generous compared to other festival alcoholic beverages and is a unique take on a fruity-martini. The lemon-lime foam adds to the artful presentation and gives this sweet drink a tart edge. This is a must-have drink on a sunny Festival of the Arts day.
Gateau de Crabe, Bisque de Homard, Creme Citron et Aneth – crab cake, lobster bisque, and lemon-dill sour cream – $11.95
New this year, this creative spin on a crab cake is both thoughtfully prepared and rich. The crab cake has a substantial amount of crab and has a buttery-soft texture. Scooping each bite with the sweet lobster bisque is a winning combination. With the rich flavors and plenty of crab meat, this is a surprisingly filling food item.
We still have so much to try at Festival of the Arts, but France is a prime example of why you should always try the new menu items… and of course, order your favorites too! EPCOT festivals are even better with friends, so you can share multiple dishes as you explore World Showcase. With less than a month left of Festival of the Arts, don’t miss the opportunity to visit EPCOT’s hidden gem of a festival.
