PHOTOS: Preparation Begins for 2025 EPCOT International Food & Wine Festival

Disney is gearing up for the 2025 EPCOT International Food & Wine Festival with signage now installed on some food booths. Most of the booths stay up year-round for use during other festivals, but are unused during the summer.

Food & Wine Festival Food Booths

The Belgium, Greece, Alps, and India food booths — or Global Marketplaces — all have signs. The signs include the festival name, the marketplace name, and the year the marketplace debuted at the festival. Usually, the signs would have banners indicating the booths are “Coming Soon,” but these don’t currently.

Swirled Showcase still has its standard signage. It debuted at the 2023 EPCOT International Food & Wine Festival and has been used for every festival since, always operating under the same name, but offering different limited-time items.

This kiosk near The Land pavilion was Earth Eats at last year’s Food & Wine Festival. Unlike most of the other Global Marketplaces, it’s open between festivals, offering snacks.

Refreshment Port is also open year-round, offering poutine. There have been no updates to this kiosk.

Though it doesn’t have a sign yet, the Australia booth is ready for the festival this year. In 2024, Australia operated out of a tent when the festival began, then moved to The Land pavilion, before the booth finally opened in October.

This booth has been Shimmering Sips at the last several Food & Wine Festivals.

These three booths were all new offerings last year: Forest & Field, Milled & Mulled, and Bramblewood Bites. We don’t yet know if they will be the same marketplaces this year.

The following other booths are also already in place, but have seen no updates.

The EPCOT International Food & Wine Festival will run from August 28 through November 22, 2025. It will include over 35 Global Marketplaces and the return of Emile’s Fromage Montage, Remy’s Hide & Squeak Scavenger Hunt, Eat to the Beat Concert Series, and Living With the Land seasonal displays.
