Foodie Guide to the Festival of the Arts
Grab your creativity (and your appetite) because the
EPCOT International Festival of the Arts is kicking off in just a couple weeks. Starting Jan. 12 through Feb. 19, EPCOT will embrace the arts in all forms, from music to cuisines, and fill the park with plenty of dazzling experiences to enjoy.
With 18 Food Studios filled with expertly crafted bites and delights from our talented teams of chefs and mixologists, your taste buds are about to be brought to life with the culinary arts! This year, there are multiple returning favorites, like the
Red Wine-braised Beef Short Rib and
Deconstructed Key Lime Pie, as well as soon-to-be premiering dishes, like the
Neapolitan Dessert Trio and
Grilled Pork Belly. As you eat your way around the World Showcase, be sure to pick up a Festival Passport to take part in the
Wonderful Walk of Colorful Cuisine, a returning food stroll featuring culinary delights. With each bite, collect stamps by purchasing five of these decadent dishes to redeem a special prize from Deco Delights to enjoy.
And the Figment love continues this year because not only is
Figment’s Inspiration Station at the Odyssey: Art, Food, and Little Sparks of Magic back with its tasty bites, but there’s even a brand-new bucket. The adorable
Figment Premium Popcorn Bucket with Rainbow Popcorn features everyone’s favorite imagination enthusiast and draws inspiration from Journey Into Imagination with Figment!
