Because these are big artists and free concerts, you can imagine it gets pretty busy! You’ll want to make sure you get in line early if there’s someone who can’t miss or purchase a dining package so you get guaranteed seating (plus dinner!).

We’re not kidding about the crowds!

In the meantime, make sure you keep following Disney Food Blog for more Disney news. We’ll be there on the opening day of the festival, ready to bring you all the details you need to know before you visit for yourself, and hey, maybe you’ll just catch us at one of the concerts.

I SPENT $70 FOR THIS IN EPCOT, AND I’D DO IT AGAIN IN A HEARTBEAT
