The Festival of the Arts features Food Studios located around EPCOT! Two new Studios arrived in 2023 — Moderne, located near Test Track presented by Chevrolet, featuring new avant-garde menu items, and Figment’s Inspiration Station at the Odyssey: Art, Food, and Little Sparks of Magic. Disney hasn’t shared many details about what we can expect from the 2024 festival just yet, but at least we know when it will all kick-off!
This Festival features art-inspired dishes and drinks. Unique to the Festival of the Arts is a focus on the presentation of the dishes. Many food items are their own works of art! In addition, you also get to check out art in various mediums presented by makers from around the world and locally. It’s one of our favorite festivals for a reason!
We’ll be on the lookout for more details about the 2024 EPCOT International Festival of the Arts, so be sure to stay tuned to DFB for the latest!

Could someone please answer an important question for me? If the International Festival of the Arts ends on Feb 19th, does the flower and garden festival start immediately afterwards, like on February 20th? Thank you to whoever can answer this for me.
Hi Essie! Not always, sometimes there may be a week or two in between two festivals. We don’t have the dates for Flower and Garden yet, unfortunately. We will post those dates as soon as we know.
