Calling all Illumineers and art lovers! The 2027 EPCOT International Festival of the Arts presented by Disney Lorcana Trading Card Game is officially on the calendar, and it is shaping up to be one of the most exciting yet.
Mark your calendars now — the festival runs from January 15 through March 1, 2027, transforming EPCOT into a living gallery of visual, culinary, and performing arts. Here is a first look at what is heading back for 2027.
Disney Lorcana Is a Big Part of This Festival
If you are a Disney Lorcana fan, this festival deserves a spot at the top of your must do list. Disney Lorcana TCG returns to the Festival of the Arts in 2027 with exclusive festival offerings including promo items and gifts with purchase that you can only get at the event. Fan favorite experiences are also coming back, including the beloved Ink and Find Scavenger Hunt, the Collection Quest, and the Illumineer’s Lounge. These experiences made last year’s festival a hit with the Lorcana community and we expect even more excitement in 2027.
Disney on Broadway Concert Series
One of the most popular draws of the festival is back! The Disney on Broadway Concert Series takes over the America Gardens Theatre in the American Adventure pavilion, featuring Broadway stars performing the iconic songs they brought to life on stage alongside other showstopping favorites.
Every two weeks a fresh pair of performers takes the spotlight, meaning each visit to the festival offers a different experience. Concerts happen several times each evening and admission is included with your regular EPCOT park entry on a first come, first served basis. Dining packages with guaranteed seating will go on sale at a later date, so stay tuned for that announcement.
19 Food Studios
Foodies, you are going to want to plan accordingly. The 2027 Festival of the Arts will feature 19 Food Studios spread throughout EPCOT, each showcasing culinary creativity with dishes that are as beautiful as they are delicious. The official menu guide will be released closer to the festival so keep an eye on TMSM for all the tasty details as they drop.
