2026 Epcot International Festival of the Arts Dates Announced
Disney has announced dates for the 2026 Epcot International Festival of the Arts. The festival will run from January 16th through February 23rd, for a total of 39 days!
During the festival, you might enjoy watching a live artist create chalk murals on a sidewalk or stopping in to meet a favorite artist at one of the numerous galleries. If trying delicious and visually appealing cuisine is your thing, you’ll likely enjoy the various food studios. We can attest that this festival has multiple items worth sampling. This year’s festival will offer over 20 food studios.
Those who love the performing arts will not want to miss the Disney on Broadway Concert Series. Every two weeks, a new pair of performers takes the spotlight, making each visit to the festival a fresh experience. We’ll have a lineup of 2026 performers as well as more details about dining packages when they’re announced.
Disney also notes the return of the following items to this year’s festival: Figment’s Brush with the Master’s Scavenger Hunt, Animation Academy, the Expression Section: A Paint by Number Mural, Artful Photo Ops, exclusive festival merchandise, and so much more.
Lastly, a special activity involving the Disney Lorcana Trading Card Game will be part of this year’s Epcot International Festival of the Arts! We’ll have more on this soon!
