EPCOT's a Zoo — Eat Your Way Through the Food & Wine Fest

Advice for 2026-09-11 · Published Sep 11, 2026, 7:17 AM ET

Well, whaddya know — EPCOT's a zoo today, but that's a great excuse to do what I'd do: skip the long rides and eat your way through the Food & Wine Festival, which is rollin' right now till November 16th. Guardians of the Galaxy: Cosmic Rewind's sittin' at 60 minutes and Test Track at 50, and here's the funny part — Soarin' and Beauty and the Beast Sing-Along are both closed, so the ride lineup's thin. Do the smart thing: hit the booths early before the heat peaks. Must-tries include the Fry Basket and Flavors from Fire — and everything's included with your admission! Grab a Pumpkin Spice Delice pastry in the France pavilion while it lasts, then beat the crowd surge in the afternoon. A-hyuck, better to be full than tired!
