Finally going this year! I had to cancel my trip last October due to one of the hurricanes.Arts is the real Food & Wine now
If you want creative, interesting and less generic - this is the Festival!

No it isn't-absolutely not! Don't bother!Agree%. This is the best festival. The food and drinks are more complex and so much to see in the artist booths, the drawing classes are fun, the Broadway series is great. I was a F&W diehard but it's now my least favorite festival. FArts is an unfortunate abbreviation.

Sad you had to cancel, at least you get a chance for this Festival. We’ve been twice so far and it really has become our favorite. Hope you enjoy it! It is special. There are many different arts represented and I just love the energy of them all coming together.

I'm interested to see the Broadway display in Communicore Hall. I heard on the Disney Dish podcast this week that the current feedback survey for EPCOT asks if you think Communicore Hall is a valuable use of space or something like that. I suspect they know the answerand are hopefully attempting to step it up.
FestivaI of the Arts was my first impression of Epcot last year…. No wonder it was so amazing.No it isn't-absolutely not! Don't bother!
Actually one reason why I love this Festival so much is that the crowds are so much lower than at the Food and Wine. If I listed other reasons, that wouldn't help the "secret".
I thought the same thing! $10.75 is insane. Luckily, we are on the dining plan when we go and all these items qualify as a snack credit so that helps. And thanks to this video I found, I’ll be getting all the expensive snacks:When I saw the price of the first thing I'd wanted to try, at Painted Panda in China, I was "Wow! Prices have sure gone up! $10.75!" Fortunately, it turned out that that was the most expensive food item I saw, after that everything was, or at least seemed, reasonably priced.
Chalk art, before it rains!!Looking forward to finally attending this festival! Making an unexpected short trip to WDW at the end of the month, so FARTs is on the schedule! Want to hear recommendations from all of you.
