There's Only ONE Month Left Until This Huge EPCOT Change

The EPCOT festivals are some of our favorite times of the year at Disney World, and we know our readers love them too!

You get unique experiences with delicious food, immersive entertainment, and special photo ops that guests look forward to year after year. From the gorgeous topiaries of Flower & Garden to the global tastes of Food & Wine, each festival brings something special, and the Festival of the Arts is no exception. But this particular celebration is one you need to plan carefully, because it’s noticeably shorter than the others and its final day is rapidly approaching!

The 2026 EPCOT International Festival of the Arts is running now through February 23, 2026, and that means there’s only one month left to experience this art-filled celebration before it ends. Unlike EPCOT’s longer festivals, Festival of the Arts showcases the types of art: culinary, visual, and performing arts. You’ll find food booths throughout the park, where art isn’t just on the walls, it’s on your plate too, with creatively presented dishes that look just as good as they taste.

This is arguably one of Disney fans’ favorite festivals, and you really need to time it right to experience it before it’s gone. There is a lot to do here! Guests can also take part in the Wonderful Walk of Colorful Cuisine, a food-centric scavenger hunt in the Festival Passport that rewards you for sampling select items across the park with a complimentary treat at the end. The Festival of the Arts brings live performances and visual art experiences to life across EPCOT. The popular Disney on Broadway Concert Series returns, featuring Broadway stars performing beloved Disney songs throughout the festival.
