CHANGES Revealed for Eat the Beat Concert Schedule at EPCOT’s Food and Wine Festival

The Eat to the Beat concert series is returning to the 2023 EPCOT International Food and Wine Festival…and we have UPDATES!

We already know that Dining Packages for the concert series will be returning, and we’ve got a release date for those reservations, along with pricing at the participating restaurants. Earlier this year, the schedule for the concert series was also revealed but it was incomplete. Now, more of the schedule has been filled in with performers YOU might want to see!

Here’s a look at all of the updates that have been made to the main concert schedule:

September 15th – Monsieur Periné added (previously was only listed as an artist to be announced)
September 16th-17th – Raul Acosta & Oro Solido (slight date change)
September 18th – Latin Celebrity Talent – To Be Announced (added, pending more details)
September 22nd-24th – Los Amigos Invisibles (slight date change)
September 25th-26th – 98 ° (slight date change)

Those are the updates for the main schedule. But, in addition to this, Disney has revealed the list of local bands that will play on dates in between those weekend performances by more internationally recognized bands.

As a reminder, the concerts by the more internationally recognized bands take place at the American Adventure Pavilion (known as the America Gardens Theatre) at 5:30PM, 6:45PM, and 8:00PM Fridays through Mondays from July 27th to November 18th.
