We’re still in the middle of the EPCOT International Festival of the Holidays, but we’re already thinking about our plans for the Festival of the Arts in 2022!

The decorations could be pretty phenomenal.

A while back, Disney announced that the Festival of the Arts will run from January 14th-February 21st, 2022, and you know we’ll be there to experience all the excitement! Since then, Disney has revealed some of the offerings that are returning to the festival, and we’ve got the full list.

First, they announced that the Disney on Broadway Concert Series is coming back! This is a big update since the concert series was canceled for health and safety precautions last year. We also got a full list of performers and dates, plus the details on the return of the Disney on Broadway Concert Series Dining Packages. 

We can’t wait to check out all the fun!

But besides the concert series, you’ll still be able to enjoy your favorite food items and beverages (and some new ones!) from the Food Studios around the World Showcase.
