After you eat and drink your way around EPCOT's World Showcase, we heartily recommend a brief pause to take in a concert at the American Gardens Theater as part of the EPCOT International Food & Wine Festival's "Eat to the Beat" concert series. Disney has just announced the dates and most of the acts booked for this popular musical feast.
New to the concert series this year are 98 Degrees, Sheila E, and Canadian supergroup Glass Tiger. Another first will be Jim Belushi and his rhythm-and-blues band The Sacred Hearts. Disney is also adding two contemporary Christian music acts: MercyMe and Tauren Wells.
Update: With the first concert less than a month away, Disney has released the final schedule (subject to change, of course). Is your favorite group on the list?
I'm excited to see Post Modern Jukebox back on the list. They have a unique crowd-pleasing sound with retro remixes of modern musical hits.
Having Big Bad Voodoo Daddy as the final act has become a great festival tradition. Which act are you looking forward to seeing this year!
With three shows a night, you can usually find standby seating available for your favorite act. But if you want guaranteed seating without a long wait, you'll want to book an Eat to the Beat dining package.
Get yourself to EPCOT for the 23rd EPCOT Food and Wine festival. It runs from August 30 through November 12, 2018.
