Well, we’ve been waiting to find out when this year’s festival will take place, and Disney has finally given us the dates we’ve been waiting for. This year’s festival will take place from August 27th to November 21st, 2026.

Yes, that means that this year’s festival will run for a total of 87 days. That means you’ll have all that time to check out over 35 global marketplaces and enjoy all the great food, wine, and more the festival has to offer.

We don’t exactly have full menus yet, though, but the festival always includes a good variety of foods and drinks, including plant-based and kid-friendly options. We also expect activities like Emile’s Fromage Montage and Remy’s Hide & Squeak Scavenger Hunt to return this year, too.

The Eat to the Beat concert series will also return, as well as dining packages for those who want guaranteed seating for specific concerts. We don’t have a list of artists performing this year, but in the past, we’ve seen Tiffany, Sheila E., Hanson, New Found Glory, the Beach Boys, and more.
