Get ready to make room for a new popcorn bucket! The Festival of the Arts foodie guide is here and it includes an incredible new popcorn bucket!
Figment is a character I have always loved and that little dragon is my mom’s absolute favorite! This year’s Festival of the Arts popcorn bucket is all about Journey into Imagination with Figment! In fact, if you look closely, Figment is IN the popcorn bucket! This is a must-have!
Before I get into the foods at each booth that was released by Disney Parks Blog, I should note the dates of the event. Starting Jan. 12 through Feb. 19, EPCOT will embrace the arts in all forms, from music to cuisines, and fill the park with plenty of fabulous things to enjoy (and I will be there opening day)!
There are 18 booths or food studios to enjoy at this festival. There are multiple returning favorites, like the Red Wine-braised Beef Short Rib and Deconstructed Key Lime Pie, as well as soon-to-be premiering dishes, like the Neapolitan Dessert Trio and Grilled Pork Belly. Make sure you pick up a Festival Passport to take part in the Wonderful Walk of Colorful Cuisine, a returning food stroll featuring culinary delights. You can collect stamps by purchasing five of these decadent dishes to redeem a special prize from Deco Delights to enjoy!
I am going to share the food items from some of the booths but if you want to see everything (there is a lot!), please check out the Disney Parks Blog for full details!
