What is the California Adventure Food and Wine Festival?
Disney’s Food and Wine at California Adventure park is an annual event available to all park guests. The year the event takes place from March 1, 2024 to April 22, 2024.
California Adventure Food and Wine Festival Coverage
DCA’s Food and Wine takes place in the park and is included with your regular park ticket. However, some activities as well as food and beverages will incur an additional fee.
Sip and Savor Pass
California Adventure’s festivals are a bit different from what you might find at Epcot. They’re a bit smaller and offer the Sip and Savor pass.
The Sip and Savor pass is available at select locations throughout the park and allows you to pre-pay for festival treats. The pass can be purchased for $59 and entitles you to 8 food or non-alcoholic beverage options around the festival.
Magic Key holders are able to purchase the pass for $54, and will receive a specialty lanyard.
It’s a great way to keep to a budget, and can be shared between members of your group. You can also get some extra value, by only using the tabs for items that are $7.50 or more. Using Sip and Savor tabs on less expensive items could end up costing you money.

Festival Offerings Around the Resort
The very best thing about festivals at California Adventure, is that they don’t stop at the gate! While the marquee booths and some experiences are only available inside the park…
There is so much more in Downtown
Meaning you may not even need to purchase a park ticket to experience the Food and Wine Festival.
California Adventure Food and Wine Festival Special Activities
California Adventure’s Food and Wine Festival is so much more than Festival Marketplace Booths! Between seminars, tastings, and a special attraction overlay – there’s something for everyone
Soarin’ Over California
Quite possibly the best attraction overlay ever is the annual return of Soarin’ Over California. This original, opening day, attraction at California Adventures was first duplicated at Epcot before both versions were revived as Soarin’ Around the World in 2016.
While the newer version is rich with computer generated renderings – it’s nothing like the original. Soarin’ Over California was shot on real cameras in the real world and features famous landscapes all over California. From the beaches of Laguna Hills, to the Torrey Pines Golf Course, and who can forget the Orange Groves?
Seminars, Tastings, and Demonstrations
In addition to eating all of the food and drinking all of the wine around DCA – there are educational seminars and tastings throughout the resort.
The Carthay Circle Winemaker Reception will teach you all about wine pairings, and help you to experience the array of flavors in each glass.
For those who prefer to taste a variety of samples, both wine and beer tastings from select California breweries are available at Sonoma Terrace Beverage Education and Tasting Seminars.
And if you like to get in on the action yourself, check out Trader Sam’s Cocktail Mixology!
Culinary events such as A Walk on Silverado Trail or A Gastronomic Journey match specialty plates with seasonal premium drinks, to make for an elegant (and romantic) meal.
