The 2026 EPCOT International Food & Wine Festival is underway, and alongside the usual parade of global bites and sips, two classic festival games have returned — each offering a prize you can take home. Here's how to play both.
The first is Emile's Fromage Montage, the festival's beloved cheese crawl. Pick up a free passport at the park entrance, then purchase any five cheese-themed items from the eligible menu — spread across booths and World Showcase pavilions — and collect a stamp at each. Items range from a Warm Raclette Swiss Cheese on a baguette at The Alps to Pão de Queijo in Brazil to a Basque Cheesecake in Spain, among roughly a dozen qualifying options. Some items have limited availability windows, so it's worth checking dates before you plan your route. Once you've got all five stamps, bring your passport to the Shimmering Sips booth to claim the prize: a Key Lime Dole Whip and cheesecake soft serve combo served in a keepsake themed cup. No single-day requirement — you can spread your five purchases across multiple visits.
The second tradition is Remy's Ratatouille Hide & Squeak scavenger hunt, which asks guests to track down Remy statues hidden throughout the park using a map. The map costs $11.99 plus tax (discounts available for Annual Passholders, Disney Vacation Club members, and Disney Visa cardholders) and can be purchased at several locations including the Creations Shop, Disney Traders, and World Traveler at International Gateway. Once all statues are found and marked off, return the map to any of those same retailers to claim a blind-box prize — a sealed envelope containing a magnetic game board and nine themed pieces featuring one of four possible characters: Mickey, Minnie, Figment, or Remy. One note: guests can actually claim their prize when they purchase the map, without completing the hunt first, though Cast Members will mark the map to prevent a second claim.
Whether you're a cheese devotee, a scavenger hunt enthusiast, or both, the 2026 festival offers a couple of genuinely fun ways to add a little game-day energy to your Walt Disney World visit. Both activities run concurrently with the festival season, though specific booth availability dates vary by item.
