The Fork and the Festival: A First Look at the 2025 EPCOT International Food & Wine Festival. EPCOT’s most anticipated culinary event is just around the corner. The EPCOT International Food & Wine Festival is set for August 28 to November 22, 2025, with some of our returning favorites and some brand-new delights. This is just the highlights of the menus available this year; we will have each food booth’s menu listed over the next few days.
Some of our returning favorites include the Harvest Hollow booths, including Bramblewood Bites, Milled & Mulled, and Forest & Field. Plus we do know that Brew Wing is returning to the Odyssey Pavilion, but we have not heard about The Muppets coming back as of this writing.
This year’s festival promises an adventure for every palate, featuring food and beverages from over 25 Global Marketplaces across the park. Guests can eat various items, like the Lump Crab Cake from Coastal Eats, and new creations, such as the Osakana Karaage from Japan. Another newcomer is the Apple-Cinnamon and Caramel Mini Churros Sundae from Milled & Mulled.
A Cheesy Quest: Emile’s Fromage Montage
For those who love a good cheese pull, Emile’s Fromage Montage is back. This fan-favorite food stroll invites guests to collect stamps by purchasing five designated cheesy menu items from the Global Marketplaces. Once you’ve completed your passport, you can redeem a special prize at Shimmering Sips.
Some of the cheesy delights on the menu this year include the Warm Raclette Swiss Cheese from The Alps, the Schinkennudeln (pasta gratin) from Germany, and the new Basque Cheesecake from Spain. Don’t forget to look for the 🧀 icon on the festival menus to find all the participating items.
