EPCOT Food & Wine 2026 Is Almost Here. Here’s How We’re Tackling It.

It’s almost time to eat around the world again.

The 2026 EPCOT International Food & Wine Festival kicks off August 27 and runs through November 21, bringing Global Marketplaces, returning favorites, brand-new bites, Eat to the Beat concerts and approximately 900 moments where you say, “Wait…should we get that too?”

And this is exactly the kind of problem ThrillEats was built for.

So. Many. Dishes.

Food & Wine is one of the best times of year to be an EPCOT foodie, but it can also be overwhelming.

You have limited stomach space. Limited park time. A budget. And a whole lot of booths competing for all three.

Sure, you can read every menu before your trip. You can screenshot Instagram posts. You can save TikToks. You can keep 14 browser tabs open while trying to remember which random person said the thing in Belgium was amazing.

Or you can build a game plan.

That’s where ThrillEats comes in.

Wishlist First. Feast Second.

As the 2026 Food & Wine dishes roll into ThrillEats, you can start building your festival Wishlist before you ever walk through the EPCOT gates.

See something you absolutely need to try?

⭐ Wishlist it.

Already tried it?

Rate it, review it and let the rest of us know whether it deserves precious festival stomach space.

Found something incredible?

Add a photo so the next foodie knows what they’re hunting for.

Because a menu tells you what Disney is serving.

ThrillEats helps you figure out what’s actually worth it.

And Yes, Your Old Favorites Matter

Some Food & Wine dishes come back year after year, and we don't think everything we learned about them should disappear just because a new festival season starts.

Returning dishes in ThrillEats can bring their existing community ratings and reviews along with them, so you can see what fellow park foodies already thought before deciding whether that returning favorite deserves another spot on your list.

New dish? New adventure.

Returning dish? We've got receipts.

Make Food & Wine a Game

Food & Wine already feels a little like a giant culinary scavenger hunt, so naturally, we want to make it even more fun.

Try something you wouldn't normally order.

Hunt down the dishes everyone is talking about.

Work your way through your Wishlist.

Rate your victories.

Warn the community about your regrets.

Earn badges.

And then inevitably add three more things to your Wishlist while standing in line for the thing you just swore was your last dish of the night.

We know how this works.

Your Ratings Make ThrillEats Better

The best part of ThrillEats isn't us telling you what to eat.

It's all of us telling each other.

One person's must-have can be another person's absolutely-not. That's why ThrillEats is built around the individual dish and the experiences of real park guests.

As Food & Wine gets underway, every rating, review and photo helps build a better picture of the festival.

What's actually living up to the hype?

What's the sleeper hit nobody is talking about?

What's worth walking all the way back across World Showcase for?

And what should you maybe skip and save the stomach space?

That's what we want to find out.

Ready to Eat Around the World?

Start building that Wishlist, because Food & Wine season is almost here.

We'll be updating ThrillEats as the 2026 festival menus arrive and keeping the dishes organized throughout the event.

Then, once the booths open, it's your turn.

Taste it. Rate it. Review it. Unlock it.

And together, we'll figure out what's actually worth it.
