Flavors of Florida Returns to Disney Springs
It’s that time of year again! Flavors of Florida returns to Disney Springs from June 27 to August 10, 2025, and we’re highlighting some of this year’s can’t-miss offerings. With over 40 participating locations, this annual celebration showcases the best of Florida-grown ingredients and creative culinary twists you’ll only find at Walt Disney World.
This isn’t just about delicious food and drink, though there’s plenty of that! The event includes cooking demos, pairing classes, and special events hosted by chefs from around Disney Springs.
Live Demonstrations & Pairing Events
Select Fridays feature complimentary culinary demonstrations at the Waterside Stage, courtesy of Kroger Delivery. You’ll get a behind-the-scenes look at how some of the limited-time dishes are created.
Also back this year are food and beverage pairing events. Whether it’s paella at Jaleo or cocktail making at The Edison, these exceptional experiences allow guests to learn directly from Disney’s culinary experts. Spots are limited, so register early. And don’t miss the progressive dinner options, including The Edison.
