Disney Festival Gift Cards Crowds Crowds were surprisingly low on the morning of opening day! When we headed into the park, there weren’t too many people at the entrance. It was pretty empty! What really surprised us was the lack of a line at Creations Shop for the new Food & Wine Festival souvenirs! Where is everybody? It was a pleasant and crowd free morning. Crowd check! Here’s what crowd levels are looking like this morning in EPCOT! pic.twitter.com/8uFlgjRq8D — Disney Food Blog (@DisneyFoodBlog) August 29, 2024 And now, on to the main event — the food!
