The 2024 EPCOT International Food & Wine Festival begins on August 29, 2024. This festival is very popular at Walt Disney World and will run through November 23, 2024, for 87 days. This festival features culinary dishes and experiences from around the world at various booths. The full lineup hasn’t yet been announced, but it will be soon. It’s also likely that this year, we’ll see a return of cooking seminars, appearances from celebrity chefs, and other special events this year after a more scaled-back version of the festival the past few years.

Some of the acts this year include The Fray, 98 Degrees, Sugar Ray, Yellowcard, Tiffany, David Archuleta, Hanson, Boyz II Men, and more. Concerts run nightly from 5:30 to 8:00 p.m. at the America Gardens Theatre. You can view the dates for concert guests on the website.
