What’s New at EPCOT: A Celebrity Margarita Finds a New Home and the Food and Wine Festival Begins!

It’s a big week for EPCOT! It has officially been one year since the park reopened, and this week kicks off the EPCOT International Food and Wine Festival!

EPCOT

Before we completely dive into all things Food and Wine, we wanted to bring you up to speed on the latest happenings around the park! But, as you may suspect, most of what’s new at EPCOT has to do with preparing for the festival!

EPCOT Food Updates

EPCOT International Food and Wine Festival

EPCOT has been preparing all week for this year’s Food and Wine Festival! We spotted tons of booths, menus, and signage popping up around World Showcase on our recent visit.

The EPCOT Food and Wine Festival is here!

Between all of the planters, banners, and signage, we are READY for the next four months to be filled with all of the festival happenings!

It’s festival time at EPCOT!

Of course, the Food and Wine Festival is officially in full swing as of this writing, so you can check out all of the decor, booths, and of course the FOOD in our festival reviews!

Choza de Margarita

This week, we also discovered that the Black Magic Margarita is now available at Choza de Margarita in the Mexico Pavilion!

The Black Magic Margarita!

This cocktail, crafted by Neil Patrick Harris, first debuted in 2019 and is a mixture of Ojo de Tigre Mezcal, Blackberry Purée, LeJay Black Currant Liqueur, Lime, and Mint!

It’s so beautiful!

Be sure to grab one in its new home on your next visit for $21.

EPCOT General Updates

Aside from all of the new festival decorations popping up around the park, we noticed some new trash cans appear in the park!

The design of these new trash cans fit the World Discovery theme, which is one of the three areas Future World will be split into.

Who knew trash cans could be so sleek and stylish?

We’ll admit, trash cans may not be the most exciting update, but it’s neat to see these new details come together across EPCOT!

Germany Pavilion

One of our favorite details about the Germany Pavilion in World Showcase has got to be their miniature train set!

When we looked closer on our recent visit, however, we spotted a miniature Goofy!

It’s him!

We love finding small details like this around Disney World! Bring your magnifying glass or binoculars and search for this “hidden Goofy” on your next visit!

Mitsukoshi

Mitsukoshi in the Japan Pavilion is known for having some of the most unique souvenirs across Disney World, and our recent visit was proof of that! We spotted some new footwear with a rather unusual design!

Check out these fun shoes!

The front of the shoe splits into two so your big toe has its own section!

We can’t tell if this is really comfortable or if it would bother us all day!

The shoes are available in different sizes and colors!

Your kids can match, too!

The adult shoes retail for $59.95, and the kids sizes are available for $29.99!
