The holidays are right around the corner and it's one of the best times to be at Walt Disney World! One of must-do holidays events is the Epcot International Festival of the Holidays, which runs from November 18 through December 30, 2018. The festival celebrates the holiday traditions of countries around the world and includes the popular Candlelight Processional, festive decorations, entertainment and twelve Holiday Kitchens with delicious food!
This year there will be new items at Feast of the Three Kings and a completely NEW holiday kitchen. The new kitchen, L’Chaim, will feature traditional Jewish dishes such as Pastrami on Rye, Chicken and Matzo Ball Soup, Egg Cream, and more.
Don't miss out on the holiday cookie stroll throughout Epcot!
