We are going to WDW for a quick trip this February for the Festival of the Arts. I have researched on the WDW entertainment site and the WDW website. It lists the entertainment times for the Voices of Liberty, Maharishi Cobre, Animation Academy, and Marimba de las Americas. We are also interested in the Art Defying Gravity (acrobats) and the Visual Art in Performance (painting a Disney character) shows . Both sites list the dates but not the times. I was hoping that someone may have seen those shows an could give us an approximate time(s) for these performances so that we can build them into our schedule. Any help would be appreciated.

Same as regular cars, about 45 min before opening. Drop off is by the bus loop

Are the Voices of Liberty singing The Disney Songbook. I see that you did post times, but want to be sure they are happening! I can get there the last day, Feb 22.

Do they have the booths were you can make your own candles or dye the scarves?

Yes it's happening or else it wouldn't be on the schedule

Not this year, only spin art.

Are some of the food booths closed on weekdays, as happened during Food & Wine this fall?

I believe you can dye the scarves at Disney springs now. They have the spin art with the bikes at the festival now.

I haven’t been yet (3 days!!! ) but from the thousands of vlogs I’ve watched, including weekdays, and nothing appears to be closed.

Wondering how the crowds are at EPCOT on the weekend nights. Thinking of hopping over to eat with out a dining reservation, just trying some booths. We did EPCOT last year on what was the FIRST saturday of Festival of the Arts. All I can say, I didn't expect the it to be wall to wall people. I realize with the current restrictions that won't happen, but last year the lines at the food booths were 40 - 50 people deep.

I wanted to give a shout out to William Silvers booth. I purchased his "The Brave One" piece. It is awesome along with his other work. He's over towards the test track. We almost didn't venture over there but I'm so glad we did!

FYI, the Lobster Poutine at the refreshment Port had tons of lobster on it. I couldn't believe it!

Epcot food booths are very do-able so far this week in the afternoons and evenings. SO glad hopping is back... we love grazing at the festivals for dinners.

Little funny... Bought a passholder FOA t-shirt and pin... both say "5th Anniversary." The t-shirt is dated 2021. The hang card the pin is on is dated 2020. Oops!

We bought a print from him and he signed it for us. He is in an out of the area sort of place, but glad we went there too.
