2019 Epcot International Food and Wine Festival: August 29-November 23, 2019

It says this is the first time for Kenny G in that list - I think he has been there before as well.

You’re right. So have The Hooters and 10,000 Maniacs - who are also listed as new. Definitely not the 2019 list. Oh well, that would have been fun for some Sunday morning planning.

Agree. It is almost May, so hopefully we will hear about 2019 ETTB acts in the next few weeks.

Oddly I think that’s the 2017 line-up...

Darn! Well actually I am not too disappointed. The week we will be there didn’t look so hot. I will keep looking.

Last year both Mercy Me and Tauren Wells were there the first week of September. I hope one of them makes it there this year since we arrive Aug 28-Sept 5.

Me too, i had no interest in my week! Here's hoping the 2019 list comes out soon!

You have a sharp eye!!! Correct, that was the 2017 Eat to the Beat concert schedule.

[/QUOTE]Is anyone else stalking the WDW website and the disboards looking and hoping for more info each day [/QUOTE]

Yes, I look almost everyday! I had to book my dining already - I am driving blind!!!

Hopefully our first peek at new F&W merch means more info is coming soon!

Thanks for posting! So fun to see some 2019 F&W merchandise. I really like the coffee mug.

Thanks for posting! If the logo which is displayed (Remy) actually is the logo for the 2019 festival, this will be the 3rd year in a row that the same logo has been used.

That Spaceship Earth cutting board...

Here’s the link for anyone curious - includes a few additional “zoomed in” pics as well. I love the cutting board even more - Spaceship Earth and World Showcase all in one!

Thanks, @CDKG, for posting!!

I like the hands-free, cup-holding lanyard. That will come in handy.

I’m wondering (pure speculation) if this will be part of their plastic reduction initiative. Encourage using the reusable glass with discounted refills? Probably not practical (& they don’t want to encourage drinking to excess) ... but it might sell me on it.

If they have a special on buying three together (aka the number in a beer or wine flight), I’ll think that you are on to something.

Um, that rolling pin. Do you think the tiny SE and MM heads will leave an indention in what you roll it over or is it just a decoration (a flat rolling pin)?

They do look like indentations but I feel like it must be an optical illusion. Although I suppose it could make some cute sugar cookies. Or just be decorative. I doubt I will use the cutting board as a cutting board. They better not sell out of those before my trip! I know it’s super early but I’m SO ready for more details!!!

I can't tell for sure either. I did find another photo that shows them more clearly. The rolling pin is in the third photo. The second photo has a closer view of that cool cutting board.

I can’t tell either. But I love the design. I’m not a baker - not sure if I even own a rolling pin- but I’m tempted. I just hope whoever is doing the ordering is not the person who ordered the beaker/flasks last year or the initial run of orange bird sippers for F&G!!

That definitely looks cut out rather than flat. Cute for cookies but not much else.
