Disney's full food lineup for EPCOT's holiday festival has 186 items across 20 Holiday Kitchens, and 98 of them are new. What Disney didn't post yet: a single price.
Disney released the full menus for the 2026 EPCOT International Festival of the Holidays on Thursday, and more than half of the lineup is new.
The Disney Parks Blog counts 186 food and drink offerings across 20 Holiday Kitchens, with 98 brand-new items. By our math, that's about 53% of the menu. Two of the kitchens are new, too: Diwali Holiday Kitchen and Season's Eatings.
One thing is missing. Disney's menu release didn't include prices, BlogMickey noted, so budgeting has to wait. The festival runs Nov. 27 to Dec. 30, starting the day after Thanksgiving.
What are the new Holiday Kitchens at EPCOT?
Diwali Holiday Kitchen is the bigger addition, and every item on its menu is new. It sits on the walkway between World Showcase and the Imagination! Pavilion.
Pani Puri: filled with curry-spiced potatoes and chickpeas, served with tamarind water (plant-based)
Chicken Biryani: topped with yogurt sauce, pomegranate seeds and bird's eye chilis
Mango Mousse Cup: with lime whipped cream and cardamom cookie streusel (plant-based)
Thandai Milkshake: almond, fennel, cardamom and saffron flavors, topped with rose petals
Season's Eatings takes over CommuniCore Plaza, where Favorites of Festivals Past served guests last year, BlogMickey reported. Its headliner is the Holly Jolly Banh Mi, a Vietnamese-style sandwich with smoked turkey and pickled vegetables. Reuben Croquettes and a Cranberry-Almond Frangipane Bar round it out.

This is where Disney's chefs had the most fun.

Coffee fans get four new Joffrey's lattes, including a Candy Cane Latte and a Mallow Drop Latte. The grown-up side of the menu has its usual stack of seasonal beers and ciders.
What should kids eat at Festival of the Holidays?
Disney flagged 10 kid-friendly picks in its guide:
Prototype Cookie and the Hot Chocolate Mousse Cup

Cheese Fondue in a bread bowl and the Hazelnut Linzer Cookie (Bavaria Holiday Kitchen)
Slow-roasted Turkey with stuffing and mashed potatoes (American Holiday Table)

Is the Holiday Cookie Stroll back?
Yes. Nine cookies count this year. Buy any five, get a stamp in your Festival Passport for each one, and trade the finished passport for a treat at Holiday Sweets & Treats near Port of Entry. WDWMagic reported the reward is a Festival Treat featuring a SNICKERS Tree.
Disney also added a PhotoPass Magic Shot with a cookie tray prop near the World Showcase Christmas tree.
What else is happening at the festival?
The Holiday Storytellers, the Voices of Liberty Dickens Carolers, JOYFUL! A Celebration of the Season and the Candlelight Processional all return. Olaf's scavenger hunt is back, too.
Passholders get their own Figment souvenir cup with a Raspberry Sleigh Dole Whip, as [we reported Nov. 6](https://news.piratesandprincesses.net/p/disney-world-passholders-get-a-figment).
Prices should show up once the festival gets closer. Until then, 186 items and 34 days is a lot of math to do on an empty stomach.
