The fabulous Epcot International Food and Wine Festival is the setting for not only the many delicious food marketplaces held around the World Showcase and chefs demonstrations, but it’s also the time when the epic Party for the Senses takes place.

All five senses: taste, touch, sight, sound, smell – will be stimulated at the Party for the Senses where guests start out at the Eat to the Beat Concert series and then when the curtains lift at the World Show Place Events Pavilion, a sensory overload of over 50 tempting tasting stations featuring chefs from around the world as well as live musical and acrobatic performances from Cirque du Soleil®.

It’s the perfect place for foodies to indulge in gustatory delights as well as experience sensory overload in a classy setting.
