The EPCOT International Festival of the Arts is coming back in 2023 and we’ve got some HUGE details!
Disney has shared the FULL list of food booths that’ll be available at the Festival, the entire Disney on Broadway concert series lineup, and information about the dining packages you’ll be able to snag for those performances. But now we’ve got even MORE delicious news you need to know about.
In 2023, the Festival of the Arts “food challenge” — the Wonderful Walk of Colorful Cuisine will be BACK! Similar to the cookie stroll for the Festival of the Holidays or some offerings at other festivals, you’ll need to buy a certain number of designated snacks as part of this challenge to then earn a special prize.
In 2023, you’ll be able to look at the Festival Passport for specially noted menu items. As you buy the items on the list, be sure to grab a stamp at each booth.
Once you’ve purchased at least 5 of the 7 designated dishes (and collected those stamps) you can bring your Festival Passport to the Deco Delights Food Studio to get a FREE Artist Palette Cookie (this is likely the same if not similar to the Palette Cookie we’ve seen in the past).
In 2022, the prize also included a Mixed Berry Smoothie in a cute Festival of the Arts-themed cup. We’ll be on the lookout to see if that returns in 2023 or if the completer prize features just the cookie or the cookie and something else entirely.

So just what items will be included in the 2023 Wonderful Walk of Colorful Cuisine? Here’s the FULL list:
- Gourmet Landscapes – Red Stamp
- Blood Orange-Braised Beet Tartare with Mustard Vinaigrette, Pickled Clamshell Mushrooms and Golden Beets (similar to the Blood Orange-braised beet carpaccio from 2022)
- Moderne (NEW) – Orange Stamp
- Pan-Seared Scallops with Vanilla-Butternut Squash Purée, Brown Butter Cauliflower Purée and Lime Foam
- Vibrante & Vivido: Encanto Cocina – Yellow Stamp
- The Deconstructed Dish – Green Stamp
- Deconstructed Key Lime Pie: Flexible Key Lime Curd, “Key Lime” Mousse, Graham Cracker Cake and Meringues
- Deco Delights – Blue Stamp
- Pop Eats – Indigo Stamp
- Figment’s Inspiration Station at the Odyssey: Art, Food and Little Sparks of Magic (NEW) – Violet Stamp
- Pop’t Art: Sugar Cookie with Blueberry Filling (last year we saw this item have a chocolate-hazelnut filling)
Remember, you’ll only need to buy 5 of the 7 designated items to grab that FREE completer cookie.
Also, keep in mind that you don’t need to complete the Wonderful Walk of Colorful Cuisine in one trip. You can complete it over time, collecting stamps throughout your visits. But the Festival of the Arts will only be available from January 13th through February 20th, 2023, so be sure to complete it before the Festival is over.

I hope there are allergy free choices because I can’t eat four out of the seven choices that are listed. So sad \i will not be able to get the cookie.
