The 2026 EPCOT Food and Wine Festival has launched with exciting new attractions including a free prize opportunity through the annual cheese crawl. Participants can collect five stamps by purchasing specific cheese-based dishes from various international pavilions throughout the festival period. The reward for completing this culinary challenge is a complimentary Key Lime Dole Whip with cheesecake soft serve served in a themed cup. In addition to the cheese crawl, Remy’s Ratatouille Hide and Squeak scavenger hunt returns as another engaging activity for festival attendees. This interactive game involves locating statues of the animated character throughout EPCOT using a purchased map that provides location hints. Completing the scavenger hunt or purchasing the map at select retailers grants participants blind box prizes containing magnetic game boards and character pieces. The festival runs from late September through early November with multiple food offerings available daily across different pavilions.
