Food and Wine with a 3 year old

[Stevegriswold]

Hi,

We will be at Epcot Sept 29th.

Anything we should be sure not to miss for food and wine on that day?

Our plan was just got do the regular EPCOT rides, etc, and eat at the kiosks all day (lunch and dinner), but should be catch the Eat To The Beat?

Eat to the Beat - What time is the best to watch this? When do you need to get in line? Any time slot have a shorter line?

We could go maybe another day Sept 29th - Oct 4th is there is something else happening that would be fun.

We have a three year old that eats about anything, but really don't want to do $150 a per events at this point.

Thanks,
Steve

Last year for the Juice Newton Eat to the Beat concert, the early one, don't remember the time, we were able to walk right in just after it started and got seats about half way down. Not too bad since we didn't have to stand in line and were still able to get out of the sun.
With a 3 year old I think your best bet is just to graze the food kiosk, that's what we do and we're all adults. We have a great time w/o doing any of the special event dinners, or parties.
Hope you have a great time

we were actually able to not only graze but to attend two of the free seminars (Samuel Adams and the Bass ale one) a couple of years ago at the festival with a then 18 month old and a 4 year old.

We couldn't do any of the ticketed events (didn't want to fork over a couple hundred bucks and then have to leave b/c of a tantrum!), but we were able to do these seminars b/c I made sure to get a BIG cup of ice for each of them and let them play with it on the tray of their double stroller. That really amused them for a long time! We also made sure they were well-fed before hand. It also helped that we went early in the afternoon, so it wasn't terribly busy!
