EPCOT's Festival of the Arts might have the best food of any of the theme park's annual events. Here are grmartin's picks for the best dishes at this year's festival.
EPCOT’s annual International Festival of the Arts, which runs through Feb. 21, 2022, is a celebration of all manner of creativity. You’ll find performers and art vendors throughout the park, with daily shows from the Disney on Broadway Concert Series. Unique photo opportunities will let you step into some of the most important paintings of all time, including Mona Lisa and The Scream.
This is an EPCOT festival, though, which means one thing, above all else: food. You’ll find a diverse spread of enticing delicacies throughout EPCOT during the Festival of the Arts, from the standard menus at EPCOT’s many great restaurants, to limited engagement offerings at kiosks throughout World Showcase. No disrespect to the visual and performance arts, but at EPCOT, the culinary arts reign supreme.
I recently trekked down to Orlando to try out this sumptuous feast for myself. The special festival food is served in small-ish portions—think tapas—and will generally set you back between $5 and $10 a plate. Expect to pay a little bit more than you would for most theme park treats, for a little bit less food, although that food is of a higher quality and with a more artful presentation than you’d typically get from a walk-up counter at a Disney park.
Here’s what I discovered during my savory journey through the culinary world. These are the best foods at EPCOT’s Festival of the Arts.This is one of the heftier dishes you’ll find at the Festival. It’s a seared beef tenderloin served with refried beans, a square of grilled queso fresco, and salsa, and if you’re looking for something to serve as an ersatz main course for your ‘round-the-world feast, this is one of your best bets.
