Overview
- Disney published full Food & Wine menus on Wednesday, giving guests the complete lineup for the festival that runs from August 27 through November 21, 2026.
- The company confirmed a phased rollout that delays several Global Marketplaces: Festival Favorites opens September 9, The Wedge runs September 18–November 8, and Coastal Eats, Earth Eats, India and The Alps begin October 2.
- The Wedge, a new cheese‑focused Global Marketplace inside CommuniCore Hall, will serve multiple macaroni‑and‑cheese dishes, a cannoli milkshake and a wine‑and‑cheese pairing during its shorter Sept. 18–Nov. 8 run while the interactive 'Cheers to Cheese' exhibit will also operate in CommuniCore Hall on the same dates.
- Reporters on site found festival signage, kiosks, maps and some posted menus across EPCOT, so visitors should check individual booth opening dates before planning trips and consider wearable Disney Gift Card wristlets to speed multiple small purchases.
- The 30th‑anniversary Foodie Guide highlights 30 returning or reimagined items with a special icon, and Disney’s preview video showcased five featured dishes including a Pumpkin Cheesecake Mousse Trifle, Dill Buffalo Chicken Wing, Cannoli Milkshake, Crab and Corn Macaroni and Cheese, and a Liquid Nitrogen Almond Truffle Mousse.
