It's that time again...

From Intercot, August 8th

Sample the flavors at more than 20 International marketplaces representing over 20 countries and regions. Enjoy wine and cooking demonstrations or treat yourself to one of the exclusive dining experiences available.

Entrance to the Epcot International Food and Wine Festival, plus wine and beer seminars and cooking demonstrations, is included with regular admission.

LAKE BUENA VISTA, Fla.
Fine cuisine and wines from some of the best "foodie" cities in the world will take a bow at the 13th annual Epcot International Food & Wine Festival Sept. 26 through Nov. 9 at Walt Disney World Resort.

Epcot guests can explore these "Cities in Wonderland" -- from trendy Cork, Ireland, to the melting pot of Cape Town, South Africa -- around the World Showcase promenade while also discovering blissful bites at international and regional marketplaces brimming with exotic flavors and comfort foods. The six-week festival will showcase tastes from countries on six continents.

Theres alot more to read in the full article, along with the lineup of entertainers scheduled for the American Gardens Theatre. From Bag Bad Voodoo Daddy, to David Cassidy, or The Atlanta Rhythm Section, it sounds like theres something for everyone.

This is my Favorite time at WDW. The crowds are low and the food is GREAT!!! Sadly I will not get to go this year. Hopefully next year I can schedule a trip to vist some friends watch some Gator football, like there is any other worth watching, and attend the Food and Wine Festival. Oh well I guess I'll just have to enjoy the Best Coast this year. Wink

Actually I really love to watch Fresno State Football too. Go Dogs! Back to Topic

But if you can go this is a Great time to vist EPCOT center.

Ya, for those of you new UAB...we had our last Jamboree during the Food & Wine fest! It was great. We had a whole group of people going kiosk to kiosk, trying everything we could...while still maintaining our dignity....

....which was easier for some of us, than others... Wink

I get to be there this year! I'm excited...I know I probably won't have a chance to take advantage of too much since it's a family va-cay...but I'm looking forward to checking it all out!

I enjoy going during the Wine and Food. Always a good time.

I'm surprised this has not made some form of appearance on the West Coast. You would think DCA could use the draw. Of course considering they get so many fewer foreign guests...
