We are just about a month away from this year's 20th Epcot International Food & Wine Festival that begins September 25th and runs through November 16th. Yesterday, on the Disney Parks Blog Pam Brandon revealed two new special events are quite popular this year and tickets are going fast.
The Rockin' Burger Block Party and the Yelloween Masquerade Party are the two new special events for this year's Food & Wine festival. The Rockin' Burger Block Party is set for the dates September 25, October 8, and November 6 from 7-9 p.m. The Yelloween Masquerade Party will take place on Halloween Night, October 31 from 7-9:30 p.m.
The Rockin' Burger Block Party is a designer burger party being held in World Showcase that will give guests the choice of tasting more than a dozen sliders at the party. Some burgers to be featured include: a coffee-crusted beef short rib burger topped with smoked Gouda, garlic potato string, and a sangria ketchup; a spiced lamb burger topped with feta, pickled watermelon rind, and a za'atar aioli; a mixed grill burger topped with a fried egg, bacon grease fries, and nacho cheese sauce.
For the non-meat eating crowd, a shrimp and scallop burger topped with spicy Thai slaw and a cilantro-lime mayo with a side of a smoked sea-salted fried edamame or a grilled grouper patty topped with butter-lettuce, vine-ripened tomato, and a lime aioli will be available.
For some sides with the burgers guests can taste these bites like: spicy-sticky pig wings, veggie pot stickers, cheeseburger spring rolls, mini-rolls, moonshine barbecued meatballs, chickpea and roasted corn fritters, and Caribbean spiced seafood cakes. For a sweat ending to the meal cinnamon roll fireball bread pudding with a cream cheese glaze, snickerdoodle-crusted apple custard crisp, and Vairhona chocolate ganache brownies will be the choices. The all-you-can-eat buffet will include craft beers, wines, cocktails, and more. A DJ will also be on hand for dancing and you will get to vote for the best burger of each night.
The October 8th party will be hosted by the hosts of ABC's "The Chew." Cost for the party will be $99 for just regular entry, $119 for a reserved table on the main floor and early admission at 6:45, or $199 for Nosh Pit seating with a private reserved table, early admission at 6:45, and a specialty cocktail and premium bar.
The Yelloween Masquerade Party is of course one night only on Halloween and will be a yellow and black costume themed to the night's featured drink, golden Champagne. Guests should think elegant and plan to eat, drink, and party the night away with special entertainment. General admission for the event will be $169 plus tax, $199 plus tax for a reserved table on the main floor with a specialty cocktail toast, or $319 plus tax for a private reserved table, early entrance at 6:45, specialty cocktail toast, artisanal cheese station, and more.
Reservations for these two special events and other special events for this year's 20th Epcot International Food & Wine Festival can be made by calling 407-939-3378.
