Disney4me Posted January 14, 2022 Report Posted January 14, 2022 Welcome to the 2022 EPCOT International Festival of the Arts! EPCOT International Festival of the Arts It feels like we were just filling our bellies with all of the tasty food and drink items from the Festival of the Holidays, but it’s a new year and that means it’s already time for the most colorful, the most creative, and perhaps most unique of the four EPCOT festivals. We’ll be updating this post ALL DAY as we explore everything there is to see from the fest. Stay tuned, so you don’t miss a beat! Festival Dates This year, the Festival of the Arts will take place from January 14th through February 21st! That doesn’t give you as much time as you typically see at those mega-long festivals (EPCOT Flower and Garden Festival and EPCOT Food and Wine Festival run for MONTHS!). Today’s the day! We’ll be LIVE from the EPCOT International Festival of the Arts all day sharing: food reviews merchandise art & more! Be sure to follow along with us, and let us know if you’re going to #ArtfulEPCOT this year! pic.twitter.com/uK0XYwoFGA — Disney Food Blog (@DisneyFoodBlog) January 14, 2022 But we are thrilled to be here and let our creative juices flow while we make the most of the brief few weeks we have with this festival. Let’s jump right in and get this pARTy stARTed (we’re like, totally tapping into our inner artist here). Getting Started and Crowds This morning around TWO HOURS before the festival booths opened, lines were already forming for the first day of the festival. Lines starting to form for the first day of #ArtfulEpcot pic.twitter.com/iZqvgLgxcZ — Disney Food Blog (@DisneyFoodBlog) January 14, 2022 When it was time to head in, we were greeted with a Figment-inspired Annual Passholder entrance sequence. Is there a more fitting way to kick off #ArtfulEPCOT than with the Figment-inspired AP entrance sequence? (Like this if you’re eyeing the Figgy popcorn bucket ) pic.twitter.com/d5cTGapoVq — Disney Food Blog (@DisneyFoodBlog) January 14, 2022 The largest lines we saw early in the day were for the Figment Popcorn Bucket coming to Pop Eats! This…is the line for the Figment Popcorn Bucket pic.twitter.com/ciHSwJEb5K — Disney Food Blog (@DisneyFoodBlog) January 14, 2022 The line wrapped a loooooooooooong way through the front side of EPCOT.

Maps and Festival Booklet Like the other EPCOT festivals, we grabbed our park map along with our Festival of the Arts Passport. 2022 EPCOT Festival of the Arts Passport These passports contain all of the must-known information you’ll need to have a successful day at the festival (plus, it’s a bit of a free souvenir!). Festival Passport Signs and Decor As you can imagine, the Festival of the Arts is one COLORFUL spectacle around EPCOT. WELCOME to the 2022 EPCOT Festival of the Arts! Everywhere you look you’ll find signage and decorations that let you know the festival is in town.

Festival Merchandise Of course, one of the big draws to any EPCOT festival is the special edition merchandise! First thing this morning, we spotted a fancy new Festival of the Arts Figment MagicBand for Passholders.
