There’s one BIG reason why you’ll want to visit EPCOT right now!
EPCOT Festival of the Arts
The 2023 Festival of the Arts kicked off a couple of weeks ago, and you can find all kinds of beautiful and delicious snacks and treats throughout the park. They’re sticking around until February 20th, when the festival ends. There’s one food booth that ran into a bit of trouble today, though, when it ran out of a very important item!
Over at the Pop Eats food booth, you’ll find classic comfort food with an artistic twist. On the menu is tomato soup; regular grilled cheese; grilled cheese with pimento cheese, bacon, and fried green tomatoes; and an almond frangipane cake.

The booth itself is inspired by pop artists like Andy Warhol, which is why the tomato soup comes in a cup decorated to look like a little soup can!

However, when we stopped by today we noticed that those cute decorated cups are MISSING and have been replaced by regular Disney cups.
The replacements
The Cast Members didn’t know when the soup can cups might return, so we’ll keep an eye on the booth and let you know when we have an update.
Oh no!
Whatever cup it comes in, we still recommend trying out that soup and grilled cheese — we thought they were both delicious, and the grilled cheese with toppings was even better!

If you’re looking for a fun souvenir cup from this festival, you can head over to the Figment’s Inspiration Station booth (at the Odyssey pavilion) and get the Grape Smoothie for $5.50. It comes in a cute Figment-themed cup that you can keep!

We’ll keep watching for more updates from Disney World, so stay tuned to DFB for all the latest news.

When we were there 1/30 we got a plain aluminum can. I was disappointed that we didn’t get the decorative one BUT that tomato soup was amazing (and I HATE tomato soup)!!
That happened to me the first year they had the cute soup cad. I can’t remember if it was last year or a couple years ago, but I was so sad to get the soup in a plain white cup with no warning or price cut. I can’t believe they ran out again this year after knowing they run out!
