I don’t know about you, but I think we’re all ready to say goodbye to 2020. With 2021 right around the corner, Disney has released some new details about the upcoming Taste of EPCOT International Festival of the Arts, which will run from Jan. 8 – Feb. 22, 2021.
The event will feature over 100 Disney and visiting artists who will display their work, and have guests participate in interactive experiences such as a paint-by-number mural or drawing some of their favorite Disney characters, and even step into famous portraits with fun photo ops!
New in 2021
Voices of Liberty will take center stage at America Gardens Theatre with The Disney Songbook. The ensemble will perform Disney songs and celebrate Disney composers and lyricists.
In World Showplace, you can catch live performances by “Art Defying Gravity,” a spectacle of thrilling strength acts, and “Visual Art in Performance,” a high-energy, onstage visual artist who paints favorite Disney characters in minutes.
Let’s not forget the best part, the Food Studios located around World Showcase! Above is the Vibrante & Vívido Food Studio, a new location between France and Morocco, will feature a chilled seafood cocktail with octopus, scallops, shrimp, black garlic aïoli, tomato coconut sauce, and serrano lime oil. Or, try the Blue Corn Pupusa stuffed with cheese and topped with shredded pork, guajillo and árbol chile sauce, cabbage slaw, and aji amarillo crema. A food guide for the event will be coming soon!
Last but certainly not least, is the Wonderful Walk of Colorful Cuisine, where you can use the Festival Passport as a guide to purchase five food items and receive a complimentary treat. Figment’s Brush with the Masters returns, where you will be able to purchase a map and stickers at a variety of merchandise locations.
Taste of EPCOT International Festival of the Arts will run for 46 days and be available with valid admission and a park reservation for the same date. We hope to see you there!
