It’s the million dollar question right now — What are the dates for the 2018 Epcot Food and Wine Festival?

We’ve been getting A LOT of emails and messages lately asking us this question right now, and we KNOW you’re all eager to start planning your trips, booking your hotels, and looking for flights. We are, too!

What are the dates for the 2018 Food and Wine Festival?

What are the dates for the 2018 Food and Wine Festival?

The dates for this year’s festival have not yet been announced. But we can make some pretty good guesses based on previous years that will hopefully help you as you start to make your plans.

Last year Epcot celebrated its 35th anniversary, and the Epcot Food and Wine Festival ran for a record 75 days — from August 31 (Thursday) until November 13 (Monday)! In 2016 the Festival ran from September 14 (Wednesday) through November 14 (Monday), and in 2015 the Festival didn’t start until September 25 (Friday) and ended November 16 (Monday).

Between 2015 and 2016, the festival extended 11 days, and between 2016 and 2017, the festival expanded two weeks. So we do expect another extension, but it’s not guaranteed.

If an extension happens, it will most likely happen at the beginning of the festival. Disney likely won’t extend the festival past the closing date of November 12 since they’ll start running into holiday events and the Festival of the Holidays in Epcot. (But they’ve surprised us before!)

Looking at those dates, it is very likely that the 2018 Epcot Food and Wine Festival will start between the middle and end of August — likely August 14, 23, or 30, and will run through November 12, 2018.
