Reservations are now open for the bookable events during the first annual Epcot International Festival of the Arts:


Over the six weekends of the festival beginning Jan. 13, you can sign up for interactive workshops like the Gesture Drawing Class, led by former Disney animator Todd Bright. Gesture drawing of people is foundational practice for animators, storyboard artists, and directors. A single drawing tells a story. Todd’s Story Telling Drawings class will teach you the art of quick sketching from life.

Other select workshops include watercolor painting, mixed media art, calligraphy and floral arrangements. The Interactive Workshops are $39+tax each Friday-Monday of the Festival.

You can also make a reservation for a meal and performance combo: a delicious breakfast, lunch or dinner, followed by a phenomenal Disney on Broadway inspired concert – nightly during the Festival from January 13 – February 20, 2017.

The concert series will pair Broadway talent with favorite songs from award-winning Disney shows such as “The Lion King,” “Newsies” and “Aladdin”. The Dining package includes a three-course meal or full buffet and priority seating at the 8:00 p.m. concert at participating Epcot restaurants. Prices range from $39-$69+ tax for adults, $23-$41+tax for children.

The festival runs Fridays through Mondays starting Jan. 13–Feb. 20. To give you an idea of the experiences you can reserve, check out this list. A complete list of offerings will be available online starting Jan. 6. You can book now by calling 407-WDW-PLAY. A great benefit to Annual Passholders and Disney Vacation Club members: 15 percent off the select experiences.

Epcot has announced more details for the new annual Festival Event starting January 2017:




..... Running Fridays through Mondays from Jan. 13-Feb. 20, the festival will combine visual, culinary and performing arts, unveiling brand new art each week.

While the Epcot International Flower & Garden Festival strives for seasonal flavors, and the Epcot International Food & Wine Festival is all about global cuisine, the Epcot International Festival of the Arts is all about works of art on a plate

At many of the Food Studios, guests will be able to watch the chefs plating and see the creative process as the dish comes to life.

Could this be the last event to guarantee Epcot will never have a slow season?
