Of all the Disney Parks, Epcot is certainly the one adults without kids are drawn to most—that is, if you're a drinking-around-the-world kind of person. During Epcot's fall Food and Wine Festival, there's even more top-notch food and drinks to try. But like its sister parks, Epcot's still stocked with plenty of activities (and eats) for kids. This year, they upped the ante with even more family-friendly activities, so parents and kids alike can enjoy the festival. Here are some of the coolest new activities at the park, plus top eats on the menu this year.
Take a Candy Sushi Class
Disney chefs are hosting candy sushi workshops where kids can turn gummies, fruit strips, and crisped rice treats into their own delish maki- or nigiri-style roll. You have to reserve a spot, but the class is complimentary thanks to Skittles and Adventures by Disney.
Hit Up The Playground
When your kiddo needs to burn off some energy, take them to Epcot's new playground, right outside the Mouse Gear gift store.
Search for Remy on the Ratatouille Hide ‘n’ Squeak Scavenger Hunt
This Ratatouille-inspired adventure takes kids and parents around the Festival to find Remy's hiding in all new locations. Bonus: You can get a cute collectible cup as a prize!
Dance With Characters At The Disney Du Jour Dance Party
On Friday and Saturday nights, kids can join in on a dance party with a rotating cast of Disney characters. Special guests from Radio Disney will come too to perform exclusive concerts; Sophie Beem and boy band In Real Life both performed in September!
Learn To Cook At The Junior Chef Kitchen
On Sunday, mini chefs can throw on their aprons and participate in the Junior Chef Kitchen Presented by Krusteaz, a complimentary cooking class at the Festival Center. Kids can eat their creations, naturally!
