The EPCOT Festival of the Arts is officially coming back to Walt Disney World in 2025! This year, the art-themed festival is set to return from January 17th to February 24th, 2025 giving you just over five weeks to explore all of the special offerings and – of course – the food. Each EPCOT festival has its own unique offerings and this is one that you certainly don’t want to miss out on if you’re visiting Disney World.

With food studios (a.k.a. food booths) serving up eats and drinks that are equally as fun to look at as they are to eat, along with a themed scavenger hunt and interactive art experience to keep you busy between bites, there’s a lot to do during the EPCOT Festival of the Arts. So, we’re bringing you a complete guide to everything you can see, do, and EAT this year!

What is EPCOT Festival of the Arts?

The EPCOT International Festival of the Arts is one of four season festivals held in EPCOT every year at Disney World. Each festival has its own unique focus, and this one is all about – you guessed it – art! The main highlight of the festival is the food studios which are themed food booths that focus on showcasing the culinary arts. So, you can expect your small bites and drinks to be some of the most photogenic eats in all of Disney World!

While the food booths are often considered the highlight of the EPCOT Festival of the Arts, there are several other things available for you to participate in and see during the festival. For example, you can complete a Figment-themed scavenger hunt as you make your way around World Showcase to receive a special prize, help paint a massive art mural, enjoy a Broadway-style concert with some of Disney on Broadway’s biggest stars, and even pick up some Disney artwork of your own from various merchandise booths. This festival is sure to keep you busy!

When is the EPCOT Festival of the Arts in 2025?

The 2025 EPCOT Festival of the Arts will take place from January 17th to February 24th, 2025.

How much is the 2025 EPCOT Festival of the Arts?

As with all EPCOT festivals, the Festival of the Arts is free and included in the cost of your EPCOT park ticket. In January and February 2025, the cost for a standard single-day ticket to EPCOT starts at $149 per person, per day depending on the exact date that you choose. 

Keep in mind that the food, drink, and merchandise at the festival are an additional cost on top of your park ticket and vary in price depending on what you order or purchase.

Activities at the 2025 EPCOT Festival of the Arts

Eating and drinking your way around World Showcase isn’t the only thing you can do at the EPCOT Festival of the Arts! The festival also features a wide variety of activities that are sure to keep everyone in your family busy between bites. Plus, you don’t want to miss the Disney on Broadway-style show that’s available every night! 

Here is the full list of all the limited-time activities that are available during the 2025 EPCOT Festival of the Arts: 

• The Wonderful Walk of Colorful Cuisine
• Disney on Broadway Concert Series & Dining Packages
• Figment-themed Scavenger Hunt
• Interactive Art Experiences

The Wonderful Walk of Colorful Cuisine

The popular food challenge is back again for the Festival of the Arts! Disney has confirmed that The Wonderful Walk of Colorful Cuisine will return for the 2025 festival which includes purchasing five food items from seven pre-selected Food Studios located around the park to receive an extra free treat at the end.

To complete The Wonderful Walk of Colorful Cuisine, you’ll need to pick up a Festival Passport (which can be found at the front of the park, at merchandise locations, and at the Food Studios) and purchase five of the listed dishes. With each purchase, a Cast Member will stamp your Festival Passport as proof and, once you’ve received all five stamps, you can take your Festival Passport to the Deco Delights Food Studios near Port of Entry to get a free Artist Palette Cookie.

While multiple pre-selected dishes qualify for The Wonderful Walk of Colorful Cuisine, you don’t have to purchase each one to complete the challenge. If some of the dishes don’t appeal to you, you can opt to purchase multiple of the same dish and earn a stamp for each purchase. In fact, you could even buy five of the same dish and still get the free cookie at the end. 

It’s also important to note that you do not have to collect all your stamps on the same day – you can opt to come back to the festival multiple times to complete the stroll. Just be sure that you bring your Festival Passport back to keep track of all your stamps!

EPCOT Festival of the Arts Tips

Never been to the EPCOT Festival of the Arts before? Here are a few things to keep in mind to ensure that you have the best day in the park and get to experience all of the festival offerings!

Time Your Visit Right

The Festival of the Arts has become a popular event over the years, drawing large crowds to EPCOT. If you want to avoid long lines for food booths and activities, we suggest avoiding weekends. The first and last weekends of the festival also tend to be the most crowded.

Plan to Spend 2 Days at EPCOT

With 16 food booths (plus a few extras!), activities, and more, you may find that one day isn’t enough to do all of the festival activities and enjoy all of the rides, restaurants, and offerings at EPCOT.

Create a Must-Try List Before You Go

There’s a lot to eat and drink at the Festival of the Arts and, unfortunately, it’s nearly impossible to try it all. Disney releases all of the Food Studio menus online, so we suggest reviewing them and deciding on what eats and drinks you really want to try before you even set foot in the park.

Don’t Skip the Interactive Art Experiences

The food and drink may get a lot of the glory, but the art experiences are equally noteworthy! These fun family-friendly activities are only at EPCOT for a limited time and you may even walk away with a complimentary souvenir in tow for participating!

Is the Disney on Broadway Concert Series Dining Package Right for You?

If you want to avoid the stress of not knowing if you’ll get a seat for the Disney on Broadway Concert Series show, purchasing a dining package is well worth it. Plus, the food at the included restaurants is delicious! However, eating at a table service restaurant with the dining package may mean that you’re less hungry for food at the Food Studios, so consider what your priorities are before booking.
