Rainbow popcorn, deconstructed dishes and more new foods at Epcot’s International Festival of the Arts

When the International Festival of the Arts debuted in 2017, it solidified Epcot as the park for art- and food-filled cultural celebrations. Now, seven years later, it’s become a go-to festival for art lovers and foodies alike, especially Florida-based Disney fans wanting an event during the slower winter months.

The Festival of the Arts kicks off Jan. 12 and runs through Feb. 19, so there’s still plenty of time to plan out your day of eating deconstructed dishes, sushi donuts, and rainbow popcorn served in a popcorn bucket shaped like the Journey to Imagination building.

If you really want to lean into eating and drinking around the festival, pick up a Wonderful Walk of Colorful Cuisine passport to collect stamps as you try specialty dishes. After five stamps, get a prize from Deco Delights.
