January Festivals at Epcot?

[Jonathan Friedman]

Any guesses if there will be any festivals in January 2021 at Epcot?

If there is, it should be the Festival of the Arts. Traditionally it starts in mid Jan through Feb but nothing's been posted. My guess is it won't be until closer to T-giving before the'll announce it. Then it could also (and I expect) a modified festival to boot.

I don't know why they would have the Food and Wine Festival but not have the Festival of the Arts. But really who knows.

One of the most popular features of the Festival of the Arts is the Disney on Broadway Concert Series, held at the America Gardens Theatre. As almost all live performances at WDW have been placed on hold, I can't imagine, under today's conditions, that the concerts will take place. The theatre has large capacity with bench seating placing guests very close to one another. Even though the performers have microphones, they do project, as do most professional stage performers. There just seem to be too many strikes against Disney on Broadway in 2021.

I believe the announcement of performers for the 2020 concerts was not till November 2019. Disney's website currently says "Check back later for updates."

My guess is that they will leave the outdoor kitchens set up for food purchases, but no concert series or displays indoors.
