California Adventure Food & Wine Festival FAQs

My first Food & Wine Festival experience was in 2017 and I was beyond impressed! Considering I don’t drink alcohol, you might wonder what I could find so impressive about this seasonal event.

It really brings such a fun, festive vibe to California Adventure with different cuisines, drinks and entertainment options and truly has something everyone can enjoy.

 

 

Food & Wine Festival runs March 4 – April 26, 2022. Print your Food & Wine Foodie Guide here.

What is Food & Wine Festival at Disneyland Resort? 

Disney’s Food & Wine Festival celebrates the cuisines and flavors of California through delicious food, drinks and demonstrations.

While you can find incredible food throughout Disneyland Resort, Disney’s Food & Wine Festival is celebrated only at Disney California Adventure Park. Beyond eating food and sipping drinks, there are culinary demonstrations, crafts and family events, live entertainment and more. 

Where is Food & Wine Festival at Disneyland Resort? 

Disney’s Food & Wine Festival is celebrated at Disney California Adventure Park, on the pathway that borders Paradise Bay (the water area in front of Pixar Pier) and Paradise Gardens Park and into Hollywood Land, Pacific Wharf and Avengers Campus in 2022.

 

 

You will find Marketplace kiosks beginning near the entrance to Cars Land lining the path toward Paradise Gardens. There are also additional kiosks in Hollywood Land offering beer, wine and small bites. 

How much does Food & Wine cost?

You can stroll through Disney California Adventure Food & Wine Festival for free with valid, limited time event admission. Even kids crafts and Jr. Chef events are free—more on those below. 

Food and drinks are an additional cost (find exact prices on the Disneyland app), just like any other food and drinks in the parks. There are some events that require reservations and an additional fee, discussed below.  Get discount Disneyland Resort tickets here.

Disney Food and Wine Festival Menu

Food and wine really are on the top of everyone’s list when they come to Disney California Adventure’s Food & Wine Festival.

You’ll find the parade route lined with various booths, where you can sample small bites and drinks as you wander your way through California Adventure.

 

 

If you’re familiar with Festival of Holidays during the holiday season at Disneyland Resort, it’s a similar set up and vibe. Lots of booths to combine different delicious snacks or meals. 

It’s fun to order a few different things from various booths and because the serving size is smaller, you can sample a lot more cuisines! You’ll also find tables and spots to stop and snack along the route.
