2027 EPCOT International Festival of the Arts Dates Revealed
Dates have been announced for the 2027 EPCOT International Festival of the Arts at Disney World, or as many readers know, my favorite festival of the year.
First launched in 2017, the annual event transforms the theme park into a gallery combining visual, culinary, and performing arts. Next year’s event will run from Jan. 15 through March 1, 2027.
The festival will mark the return of the Disney on Broadway Concert Series at the America Gardens Theatre. The musical showcase features Broadway performers delivering songs from Disney stage productions, with rotating pairs of vocalists rotating through the spotlight every two weeks. While concert admission is included with standard park entry, Disney confirmed that dining packages offering guaranteed concert seating will go on sale at a later date.
Food enthusiasts will have access to 19 themed Food Studios positioned throughout EPCOT, showcasing culinary dishes styled with artistic presentations.
Trading card collectors will also see the return of the Disney Lorcana TCG partnership, featuring event-exclusive promo items, gifts with purchase, and interactive park activities including the Ink & Find Scavenger Hunt, Collection Quest, and the Illumineer’s Lounge.
Additional festival highlights slated for 2027 include the Expression Section paint-by-numbers mural, live chalk art galleries, the Animation Academy, interactive photo opportunities, and visiting gallery artists painting Disney characters live throughout the park.
Disney will release the full lineup for the Disney on Broadway artist lineup and dining package reservations in the coming months.
