It’s time to get those paintbrushes out!

The EPCOT Festival of the Arts is officially underway, and we’re here to tell you EVERYTHING you need to know about this festival. For us, the best place to start is the festival passport — so let’s take a look!
Once you enter EPCOT, the festival has begun! You can find your free festival passport near the entrance of the park. Use this as your in-park guide for navigating the Festival of the Arts.

This passport is the key to exploring the festival like a pro! It has all of the information you need, like food booth locations, menus, and a full entertainment schedule — it even gives you a sneak peek at some festival-exclusive merchandise!

Once you open up your passport, you’ll see all of the offerings mentioned above, with additional details about where you can find all the merch, treats, and entertainment. Seriously — this passport is a lifesaver!

Inside, you can easily access the festival booth menus to plan out alllll the foods you want to try. Make sure to bookmark the food booths you want to visit!

Make sure you read through the ENTIRE festival passport during your visit. You might learn something NEW about the festival or find a fun little activity to help you pass the time while waiting in lines!

Since this is the Festival of the ARTS, you’ll find a lot of art-related information in your passport. How fun!

For all you shoppers, make sure to flip to the merchandise page. You can see a little preview of the merchandise, along with a full list of places you can go shopping in EPCOT. This info can come in handy when you see someone walk by with a FUN new Festival of the Arts backpack or a festive Spirit Jersey.

This year, Disney also brought back the popular Wonderful Walk of Colorful Cuisine! If you’re planning to participate in this fun little activity, a festival passport is a must-have.

This activity gives you the opportunity to purchase five out of seven treats on a list (found in your passport!), and you’ll get a special sixth item for free as a reward for completing the walk.

If you’re interested in some live entertainment, see which ICONIC Disney on Broadway performers will be in EPCOT during your visit!

From live performances to Art Defying Gravity, there’s a lot to see and do during the festival! Make sure to consult your passport for up-to-date information.

The best part? The passport acts as a Figment flipbook! You’ll see Figment in the corner of each page and you can flip the pages quickly to make it look like he’s moving. How fun!
We know this is a lot of information to take in, but it can only get easier from here! We’re going to be at the festival all day and updating you with everything you need to know to make your day at the Festival of the Arts a success. So, keep checking back in with us at AllEars for more tips!
