2021 Epcot International Food & Wine Festival Foodie Guide

 


It's that time of year again! The Epcot Food & Wine Festival starts this month and I'm so excited to share some of the delectable food & beverages that will be available. The festival will run from July 15 through November 20, 2021 and will feature more than 20 festival-exclusive marketplaces opening this month and even more coming in the fall! There will also be seven new marketplaces including: The Noodle Exchange (near Traveler's Cafe), Tangierine Cafe: Flavors of the Medina, The Rotunda Bistro (American Adventure Rotunda), The Swanky Sauce Swine (Near Disney Traders), Brew-Wing at the Epcot Experience, Lobster Landing (Near Mission: SPACE), and Mac & Eats (Near Mission: SPACE.)

There will also be a fun scavenger hunt, Remy's Ratatouille Hide & Squeak, where you will hunt for Remy statuettes hidden all over the festival! 

I'll be heading to Epcot on August 24th and I cannot wait to share all of my favorites with you.
