The Best Fall Festival In Florida Has Been Named
Here we go! The best fall festival in Florida has been named! The arrival of fall signals the beginning of the return of recurring celebrations and activities held throughout the year. Pumpkin patches, corn mazes, food, and hay rides are just some of the activities that can be found during harvest festivals.
Even though the vast majority of these celebrations take place in the immediate area, they occasionally draw people from all across the country.
Travel + Leisure has compiled a list of the greatest autumn festivals in each state, ranging from those held in amusement parks to those held in tiny towns. The Epcot International Food & Wine Festival has been ranked as the most recommended event in Florida by a number of journalists.
This is why:
“As one of Walt Disney World’s most popular events, the Epcot International Food & Wine Festival is perfect for anyone planning an autumn trip to the Florida theme park. The event has been running since 1995 but has gotten longer each year, with the festivities now beginning in July and running until mid-November. Guests can taste their way around six continents at global marketplaces with themes that range from Alpine cuisine to India, partake in tasty scavenger hunts, and enjoy live music. Those visiting Disney World in October can also join Pluto’s Pumpkin Pursuit to track down character-inspired decorated pumpkins for spooky prizes.”
And this is why it has been named the best fall festival in Florida!
Side bar… can Epcot PLEASE move to Tampa? That drive to Orlando on I4 is a dreadful one. Anyway, rant off.

Disney has all different types of restaurants for you to choose from. Think about Magic Kingdom’s food. Right when you walk in to the park, look to the right and you see “Tony’s Town Square Restaurant” that serves delicious Italian food. When you walk down Main Street you pass a candy store, a bakery and two more restaurants. The variety of food is awesome and you definitely have your options.

The Handwich
Usually you need two hands to hold and eat a sandwich. Well, in 1988 Disney came out with the The Handwich, which could be held in one hand. It came in a cone. It was only available at Epcot and was discontinued in the mid 1990’s.
