EPCOT Food & Wine 2026 Merchandise: Ears, Tees, Tote Bags, and More

Reading Time: 4 minutes

There’s a wine glass sized specifically to fit the festival tray. Disney released a first look at merchandise for the 2026 EPCOT International Food & Wine Festival, and the collection leans into playful, food-themed design across apparel, accessories, and kitchenware.

The EPCOT Food & Wine 2026 merchandise uses a palette of blue, orange, yellow, and purple, with ears topped by a tiny chef hat and a tote bag shaped like a churro.

The festival opens August 27. Here’s what’s been revealed.

Quick Summary

• The collection spans apparel, accessories, and kitchenware
• Festival ears come with a chef hat, moveable rolling pin, and mini whisk
• A churro-shaped tote bag is among the standout novelty pieces
• A wine glass is sized to fit the Food & Wine festival tray
• A mug with a pastry lid rounds out the kitchenware
• The festival opens August 27; merchandise details aren’t fully confirmed

Apparel

Food & Wine Tee — a white shirt with the festival logo on the front pocket

Food & Wine Sweatshirt — a cozy layer built for cooler evenings around World Showcase

Food & Wine Baseball Cap — a lightweight, colorful cap with a food-themed twist

The sweatshirt framing is worth noting given the festival’s length. Food & Wine runs from August 27 through November 21, which spans genuine Florida seasonal change. Late August evenings in World Showcase are brutal; mid-November evenings are pleasant and occasionally cool.

A festival sweatshirt is actually wearable at this event in a way that festival merchandise usually isn’t.

Accessories

Food & Wine Ears — this year’s ears come topped with a tiny chef hat and feature Mickey Mouse and Minnie Mouse in vibrant colors. They include a moveable rolling pin and a mini whisk.

The Ears Are the Collectible

Festival ears are the single most reliably sold-out item at every EPCOT festival, and this design has more going on than most.

A moveable rolling pin and a mini whisk are functional novelty elements rather than printed graphics. That kind of dimensional detail makes ears photograph better and hold value on the secondary market.

Buy these first if you want them. Festival ears routinely sell through within the opening weeks, and Food & Wine is the busiest of EPCOT’s four festivals.

Standout Pieces

Three items are worth calling out on their own:

A churro-shaped tote bag — a novelty design that transforms the classic park snack into a carry-all

A wine glass sized to fit the Food & Wine festival tray — a practical touch for anyone planning to work through the Global Marketplaces

A mug with a pastry lid

The Wine Glass Is the Genuinely Smart Item

This is the piece that shows someone on the design team actually attends this festival.

The Food & Wine tray is the cardboard carrier you get at Global Marketplaces to hold small plates and drinks while you walk. Standard wine glasses don’t sit properly in the tray slots — they’re too wide at the base or too tall, and they tip.

A glass designed to fit the tray solves a real, specific, mildly annoying problem that anyone who has done a full World Showcase loop with food and wine in hand has experienced.

That’s better product thinking than a churro tote, however fun the churro tote is.

When and Where to Shop

Full merchandise details and availability haven’t been confirmed yet.

As with previous years, festival merchandise will be available at locations throughout EPCOT including Creations Shop, when the festival opens on August 27.

Items are typically available while supplies last, and popular pieces may sell out quickly in the early weeks.

Practical Shopping Notes

• Creations Shop is the main hub for festival merchandise, but festival kiosks around World Showcase carry a subset
• Go opening week for the ears. They’re the highest-demand item and the first to disappear
• The tote and glass will last longer. Novelty homewares move slower than wearables
• Check the app for mobile checkout — EPCOT festival shopping lines get long, and mobile checkout is available at some locations
• Annual Passholder and DVC discounts frequently apply to festival merchandise. Ask at the register

What Else Is Running at Food & Wine 2026

The merchandise joins a festival with a substantial activity lineup:

• Remy’s Ratatouille Hide & Squeak — August 27 through November 21, $11.99 plus tax
• Pluto’s Pumpkin Pursuit — September 25 through November 2, $11.99 plus tax
• “Cheers to Cheese!” — an interactive exhibit at CommuniCore Hall, September 18 through November 8, included with park admission
• Emile’s Fromage Montage — the cheese-focused stamp card running throughout

If you’re planning one trip around the festival, September 25 through November 2 is the window when every activity overlaps.

The Bottom Line

EPCOT Food and Wine 2026 merchandise brings festival ears topped with a chef hat and featuring a moveable rolling pin and mini whisk, a churro-shaped tote bag, a wine glass sized for the festival tray, a mug with a pastry lid, plus a tee, sweatshirt, and baseball cap.

The palette runs blue, orange, yellow, and purple across the collection.

The festival opens August 27 with merchandise at Creations Shop and locations throughout EPCOT. Buy the ears in the opening week — the tray-sized wine glass can wait.
