The EPCOT International Food & Wine Festival presented by CORKCICLE returns to Walt Disney World Resort July 14 through Nov. 19.

Our teams of Disney chefs, mixologists and sommeliers have been testing, tasting and collaborating to create a smorgasbord of culinary delights, taking Guests on an epicurean journey as they discover new concepts and menu items at more than 25 Global Marketplaces located throughout EPCOT. Returning favorites will include The Swanky Saucy Swine, Appleseed Orchard, Hops & Barley, Earth Eats hosted by Impossible and Shimmering Sips hosted by CORKCICLE. Some Global Marketplaces will open a few weeks later during this 129-day event.

The Eat to the Beat Concert Series presented by Florida Blue Medicare returns this year with internationally recognized artists as well as local bands offering fun tunes on the America Gardens Theatre stage. We look forward to sharing more details about the lineup of bands and musical artists playing this year’s festival soon.

But that’s not all! Beyond the sips and bites, a full menu of fun offers more ways for everyone in the family to enjoy the festival:

  • Embark on a Ratatouille-inspired adventure that’s très magnifique with Remy’s Ratatouille Hide & Squeak. Kids of all ages can search for Remy on a savory scavenger hunt around EPCOT. Guests can purchase their map and stickers from select festival merchandise locations to participate.
  • Try delicious cheeses served in fun ways as part of Emile’s Fromage Montage – collect stamps in the festival passport after eligible purchases at select Global Marketplaces.
  • Guests can commemorate their visit and bring the culinary magic home with official festival event merchandise, including apparel, home décor, trading pins and more.
  • In addition to the festival, Guests can discover incredible new EPCOT experiences during the Walt Disney World Resort 50th Anniversary celebration, including Remy’s Ratatouille Adventure, “Harmonious” and the Spaceship Earth Beacon of Magic.

  2. FREE Early Park Admission – When I as a Travel Agent Order your tickets for you, thats right you will get Early Park Admission for FREE! This allows you to visit Universal Studios or Islands of Adventure ONE HOUR before the parks even open. This is a great time to get onto the most popular rides and attractions before the parks officially open to the public. So this is My FREEBIE to you just for allowing me to book your tickets. Did you know if you book your tickets on your own you Will NOT get Early Park Admission, that’s right.. So this reason alone should make you want me to order your tickets when your ready.

Star Wars: Galactic Starcruiser Officially Launches Today!

 

The long awaiting adventure has arrived as everyone has been calling it the Star Wars Hotel is finally open and taking on its first passengers. Check out the newest blog post from Disney Travel News below with a little peek into the Star Wars Galactic Starcruiser!

Today marks the official launch of Star Wars: Galactic Starcruiser at Walt Disney World Resort, and to celebrate, we’re taking a quick photo tour through the Halcyon starcruiser. Come along as we journey to a galaxy far, far away thanks to the amazing work of our Disney photographers.

Guests arrive for this first-of-its-kind two-night experience at the Galactic Starcruiser Terminal, where their bags and car are whisked away as they begin the adventure.

After boarding a Launch Pod and blasting through hyperspace, Guests dock with the Halcyon starcruiser and step out into its main deck Atrium. Here, Guests may be greeted by SK-62O, the ship’s resident astromech droid (he’s helpful in a pinch).

Then, Guests are escorted to their cabin, which is fun to explore in its own right – especially those sleeping berths built into one of the walls and the viewport out to space.

Once Guests are settled in, it’s time to head back down to the Atrium for the ship’s muster, led by Captain Riyola Keevan (seen here on the right) and Cruise Director Lenka Mok. 

Following muster is a good time to do a bit more looking around – the Sublight Lounge is great for a nice drink or a hand of holo-sabacc, or maybe a stroll into The Chandrila Collection boutique to pick up some clothing and accessories for the voyage. 

By now Guests should be checking their Star Wars: Datapad through the Play Disney Parks app on their mobile device. The itinerary updates constantly throughout the stay, so Guests will always know when it’s time for some special onboard activities like …

… Bridge Training …

… Lightsaber Training …

… or dinner in the Crown of Corellia Dining Room, featuring a spectacular musical performance by galactic superstar Gaya on the first night.

Whew … there’s a lot to take in already, and Guests could potentially do all of that in just the first few hours of the two-night journey!

We’re thrilled for Guests to make this adventure-filled voyage that goes beyond anything Disney has created before. So as they say on the starcruiser … good journey and ta’bu e tay! (Hint: That last one means, “Cherish the moment” … fitting, don’t you think?)

so what are your thoughts about the Disney Galactic Starcruiser? Are you ready to book your adventure?  this is definately going to be a one of a kind adventure.
