Free Pass to Florida Blue Lounge During Epcot Food & Wine Festival 2024. Although the calendar may indicate that Fall is coming very soon, here in Florida we are still in the hazy humid portion of summer where it rains every evening like clockwork. Did you know there is a free perk at Epcot that lets you escape the rains and hot temps during the day?
Located in the Morocco pavilion at the old Restaurant Merakkesh the Florida Blue Lounge has returned for the 2024 Food & Wine Festival, with free drinks like cold brew coffee, water, and mint tea. The Florida Blue Lounge will be open daily from 12-6 pm throughout the festival, and guests can get a pass to visit the lounge online.
This year guests can partake in sand art and make a tile, that takes about 15 minutes to cure and then you take it home. Last year they also had a henna tattoo kids could enjoy.
