The EPCOT International Festival of the Arts returns to Walt Disney World from January 13 through February 20, 2023, celebrating the creation and beauty of cuisines, music, and, of course, art.
This year, the Walt Disney World chefs and mixologists have crafted works of art for everyone to indulge in.
