Will you be at the Food and Wine Fest for the first weekend?

DH and I will! We've gone for the first weekend two or three times in years past and loved it (except for the heat )

The Festival last year was the best yet--so many more booths and so much more entertainment--I can't wait to be walking from booth to booth, sipping wine and nibbling on a tasty vegetarian snack.

We also have a weekend scheduled in October and are trying to figure out a way to fit in another weekend, maybe the weekend of the Festival of the Masters.

One year we did the Segway tour before Epcot opened and got to watch cast members setting up for the Festival.

Yes, I'm a Food and Wine Festival fanatic...I can't think of any single event that's as much fun anywhere!! (And if there is such a thing, please fill me in ).

We'll be there the 1st week-end,too!!
It's our 5th time to go at that time of year and we LOVE it.
It is the one time of year that I can count on DH going with me.
Sometime I am going to count the number of times we circle WS in a day.

I think we've circled it 3 times max in one day, but we do a LOT of running back and forth between Off Kilter, The British Invasion, and Mo' Rockin'!

will be there for 1st day but leave 9/27- but looking forward to walking WS and tasting and sipping on that 1st day- what would you recommend we try - just in case we cant get it all in?

Little hint: there's a "soft opening" the day before the official opening, basically a dress rehearsal, so you could go for two days if you want to.

My only "don't miss" would be to make sure you get an entertainment schedule when you come in the front gates--last year there was much more than just food and wine going on at some of the booths; there were several dance demonstrations, bands, etc.

Other than that, I think the Australia wine walk is really fun--it's something like 7 bucks and you go from booth to booth and sip thimble-size glasses of different Australian wines.
