Fall has officially arrived, which means all of my favorite festivities for the season are here. Kicking off Fall this year, I recently attended the media preview and showcase of Disney’s Epcot International Food & Wine Festival.

Disney holds this showcase and preview annually, and it’s highly anticipated as well. As I made my way over to Epcot, located inside of Walt Disney World, I gawked as I entered the Food & Wine festival’s showroom. Beautiful arrangements of pumpkins and decorations were spotted all throughout the atrium and various types of wines were available for us to indulge in. I just couldn’t help but to snap up a pic or two with the decor.

Within the showroom were dishes of some of Disney’s newest items and food entries for the season. Delicacies from different vendors and food stations within Epcot were neatly arranged for Disney’s guests to sample. Culinary arrangements and demonstrations were done by some of Disney’s finest chefs and a plethora of different wine brands were available for any wine connoisseur’s appetite.

One of the major aspects of the annual Food & Wine media preview is the sneak peek of the merchandise that’s going to be on sale for the up-and-coming Fall season. From graphic hoodies, T-shirts, coffee cups, mugs, tote bags and even Mickey and Minnie key chains.

After the Food & Wine media preview, we made our way over to Magic Kingdom. It was time for Mickey’s Not-So Scary Halloween Party!

This spectacular event, hosted in Magic Kingdom from August 16th – November 1st, is the perfect adventure for theme park-goers to snap it up with some of Disney’s famous villains and to try some of the delicious candy…as I did.

Make sure to check out the full list of events, adventures, and delicious food and wine options below. Happy Halloween! – David Plowden, David’s Manor.
