Disney4me Posted August 26, 2020 Report Posted August 26, 2020 What strange and unusual summer it has been! Spaceship Earth First off, Disney World shut its gates mere WEEKS after the 2020 Flower and Garden Festival began, making it the shortest EPCOT festival of all time. Then when the parks reopened, EPCOT’s longest festival in history began — the 2020 Taste of EPCOT Food and Wine Festival! Despite many modifications from previous years’ Food and Wine Festivals (no Eat to the Beat concerts or special events like cooking demos or chef meet and greets) one of the strangest things has been the lack of Food and Wine merchandise! That is — until NOW! Food and Wine Merchandise Although the Taste of EPCOT Food and Wine Festival has been selling Flower and Garden’s leftover merchandise from this spring, we finally got a sneak peek at the official Food and Wine merchandise! Most of this merchandise is expected to be released in EPCOT on September 1st. Now, let’s DIG IN! For the Figment Fanatics EPCOT’s festivals are a great opportunity for Figment fans from far and wide to stock up on fun merchandise featuring the little purple dragon himself! Over the years Figment has become the mascot of sorts for the Food and Wine Festival, and it looks like he is dressed to impress this season! Figment Table Starting off with apparel, there are two Figment-themed tops to keep an eye out for. This cute t-shirt features Figment popping out of the shirt pocket, serving up a dish of Spaceship Earth! Figment Shirt For those chillier evenings, this long-sleeve shirt has rainbow stripes down the sleeves and says “Food and Wine Festival” on the front. Figment Hoodie With a CUTE collage on the back! Figment Hoodie And those tops MUST go with some leggings! Lucky for you, the Food and Wine Festival has their very own pair of leggings that will be available for purchase! Figment Leggings There’s also an assortment of mugs, shakers, and even a trivet! Figment Merchandise Here’s a close up of that Figment Shaker because we KNOW you want to see it. Salt Shaker We’re big fans of this tall Figment mug and this adorable little ornament. Figment Mug and Ornament Need measurements? Look no further than this cute Figment Magnet!

Figment Measuring Cup Set Whenever you’re done cooking up a storm, we’ll be serving stuff up on the new Figment Plate too! Figment Plate Brews Around the World Another featured collection this year is the Brews Around the World collection featuring collectible pins, a growler, and a hat. Brews Collection Oh, and uh…the hat has a bottle opener built-in. WE NEED IT. Beer Opener Hat Other Apparel Does your wardrobe need a refresh? There are tops a-plenty at the Food and Wine Festival! If you’re looking for that “classic” Food and Wine Festival shirt, look no further than this cute maroon hoodie! Food and Wine Hoodie Annual Passholders once again have their own exclusive merchandise to shop this year, including this olive green tee that says “Olive to Cook” (get it?). Olive to Cook Annual Passholder T-shirt Mickey and Minnie make a special appearance on this cute women’s tank top! Mickey and Minnie Tank Two other tops with a more “classic” Food and Wine vibe will be available for purchase, too! Men’s’ Tee The women’s tee has a tied knot detailing in the front. Women’s Tee Accessories Looks like we have a whole new collection of Dooney’s to obsess over this Food and Wine season! Dooney & Bourke Three Dooney and Bourke bags will be available in special Food and Wine festival prints, which include Chef Mickey and Chef Minnie surrounded by all sorts of yummy treats! The Dooney and Bourke collection won’t be dropping on September 1st with the rest of the Food & Wine merch and we’re not sure when it will. On the bright side, there will be an Annual Passholder bag and a Dooney & Bourke MagicBand in addition to what we saw today! Dooney & Bourke AND let’s get COLLECTIBLE with the new pins that are coming out! Look at those awesomely detailed 25th Anniversary pins. The ten pins on top of the display are mystery pins. Darn, that means we have to try to collect them all! Food and Wine Pins Of course, there are some Passholder-exclusive pins. Boy, do they look snazzy this year, or what? Pins And there are even MORE pins (and an awesome keychain)! Pins Around the Kitchen It wouldn’t be a Food and Wine Festival without some souvenirs that you can bring back to your own kitchen at home! This year’s festival is no exception, as we spotted plenty of glassware, bottles, and kitchenware! Food and Wine Water Bottle Looking to serve up something a l’il fancy at home? There are two Passholder-exclusive serving trays to choose from. The first is a wooden cutting board-like tray that comes with a cut-out for a wine glass. Olive to Cook Tray The other is a tray for appetizers! Olive to Cook Tray Not a Passholder? Want to hold your wine AND snack? No worries! Snack and Glass Holder Plus there’s a larger board (for everyone!) too! Food and Wine Tray You may recall that Remy’s Hide and Squeak Challenge has kicked off with simply ADORABLE prizes for those participating! Hide and Squeak Those same four designs with Chef Mickey, Chef Minnie, Chef Figment, and Chef Remy will also be available as a set of Passholder-exclusive glassware! As a note, these glasses will also be arriving a little bit later than September 1st. Annual Passholder Glassware Plus, ANOTHER shaker? Look to Remy for this sweet shaker and water bottle. Remy Water Bottle and Shaker Three versions of wine glassware premiere this year: a traditional stemmed wine glass, a stemless wine glass… Wine Glasses …and a travel tumbler! Tumbler Prefer your wine straight out of the barrel? Check out this mug! Food and Wine Mug You can bet we WILL be protecting our countertops with these coasters. Coasters Chef Minnie has her own line of kitchenware, too! Be on the lookout for the “Queen of Cuisine” to make an appearance on some bowls, mugs, coasters, potholders, and an adorable apron!
