This year, Epcot’s International Festival of the Arts will be running January 17 to February 24 at the Walt Disney World Resort. There will be plenty of activities running in the park from helping to paint a wall mural in World Showcase Plaza to watching the Disney on Broadway Concert Series.

Disney has recently released a list of some of the foods that will be available during the festival. Food plays a large part in Epcot’s festivals and – as you would expect from an arts festival – the food looks stunning. A couple of highlights include sous vide chicken roulade with apples and sage served with brie fondue and the ‘Pop’t Art’, a sugar cookie with a modern design. There will also be a new food event this year as the restaurant, Le Cellier Steakhouse, will be serving brunch in the Canada Pavilion, 11 a.m. – 3 p.m. from January 18 – February 23. For more information on the food available during the festival, a full list is available on Disney Parks Blog.

Disney has also recently announced the merchandise that will be available during the festival. The merchandise will feature the lovable character, Figment, who stars in the Epcot attraction, Journey into Imagination with Figment. Clothing, ear headbands, drinkware and more will all be available. There will also be some Walt Disney World Annual Passholder exclusive items, including a tumbler, t-shirt and baseball cap. To get a sneak peek at the merchandise, check out Disney Parks Blog here.
