Walt Disney World Swan & Dolphin Food & Wine Classic

The Walt Disney World Swan and Dolphin Food & Wine Classic will celebrate its eighth year October 27 – 28. Featuring more than 60 food and beverage stations and 11 educational seminars taught by members of the resort’s food and beverage team, this two-day foodie fiesta gives guests numerous opportunities to sip and savor along the resort’s causeway, private lake, and private beach all weekend.

The resort's culinary offerings headline the event and showcase cuisine from Il Mulino New York Trattoria, Shula’s Steak House, Todd English’s bluezoo, Kimonos and more.

Wine and spirits samplings from around the globe, as well as live entertainment, turn the causeway of the Walt Disney World Swan and Dolphin into a giant party long after the sun sets.

NEW FOR 2017

Grand Tasting Experience
A new seminar, the Grand Tasting Experience, will be presented by a master sommelier, highlighting the unique Nebbiolo grape of northern Italy.
