More Details Announced About the 2014 Epcot International Food & Wine Festival

Walt Disney World has announced more details about the upcoming 19th Annual Epcot International Food & Wine Festival. The first announcement has to do with the length of the event. This year, it will start on September 19 and run through November 10. That means that it will start earlier than in past years and will run for 53 days, which will make it the longest festival yet.

Also announced is that Patagonia Marketplace will make its debut. The booth will feature foods from Argentina and Chile. Sustainable Verlasso Salmon, Arugula Chimichurri, and Quinoa Salad will be available. Farm Fresh Marketplace will replace Florida Local Market. A bacon and eggs dish will be featured. There will be menu changes at some of the other booths as well.

Events for 2014 include “Boot Camp Series”, and the cookbook event “Food for Thought”, which will be held with a celebrity author on Friday mornings. The Welcome Center will also feature the “Back to Basics” series. “Sunday Mornings With…” will allow guests to enjoy brunch with a baker or a pastry chef. Parisian Breakfast will also be back on Saturday mornings.

The 19th Annual Epcot Food & Wine Festival will feature 25 booths with snack-sized offerings from around the world. Over 270 celebrities and Disney chefs will participate. The Ocean Spray Cranberry Bog will be back, as will the Eat to the Beat concert series. Some events are included in park admission. Others cost extra and require reservations, which are not yet being taken. For more information, and to make your reservations once they are available, call 407-WDW-FEST (407-939-3378).
