We report on Disney World food year-round, but there is one event that is our BIGGEST day of the year: the opening day of the EPCOT Food & Wine Festival. We love all EPCOT festivals, but this one has the most food and drinks, and therefore we get the most excited. I mean, come on, it’s all about food, and we’re literally Disney Food Blog!

Disney has already been announcing details, but there’s something we’re still waiting for — the menus! When menus drop, it’s a huge day for us as we’re thrilled to be returning to dishes, excited to try the new ones, and shedding a tear or two for the ones who didn’t make it this season. We think we know when the menus are dropping, and it’s going to be soon!

In 2024 and 2025, the menus were released on August 13th, so it’s pretty likely we can expect the same in 2026. One month to wait!

Something fun that Disney has been doing for the EPCOT Festival of the Arts and the Flower & Garden Festival in 2026 is releasing a YouTube video previewing some of the snacks before the menus come out. For Flower and Garden, the preview came out on February 18th, and the menus were released on February 19th.

For the Festival of the Arts, the preview came out on January 6th, and the menus were released on January 7th. We know it’s only one day, but hey, one day early to find your new favorite snack.

There are some dishes that we are begging to return this year. They’ve been our favorites for a while, and honestly, we won’t be okay if they don’t make the cut. We’re obsessed with the Roasted Lamb Chop from Australia…
