We’re getting ready to jump into 2023 and the first big event of the year, the EPCOT Festival of the Arts.
This could be one of our favorite festivals of the year — there are always some unique food offerings, as well as fun art-based activities, photo ops, and more! You’ll also get a chance to see some popular Disney artists at the event, and we now know the FULL schedule for those artists!
Okay, so here’s the thing — there are TONS of artists expected at the festival this year. We’ll mention a few here and then you can check out the FULL list on Disney World’s website (which is organized by week).
Some of the artists you’ll be able to meet at the festival include Larry Dotson, Rob Kaz, artists from Thomas Kinkade Studios, Paola Gracey, David E. Doss, and more! Be sure to check out the full schedule to see if your favorite artist will be available when you visit the festival!
In addition, you’ll also be able to watch artists working LIVE on stage doing their thing — so if you’ve ever wanted to witness an artist at work (quickly), here’s your chance!
Be sure to check out the Chalk Artists, too — their creations are AMAZING!
We’ll be at the festival on the first day, so be sure to follow us for food reviews, a first look at merchandise, and more! The EPCOT Festival of the Arts runs from January 13th through February 20th.
