The Disney California Adventure Food and Wine Festival is almost here! It returns to the Disneyland Resort Feb. 28 and runs through April 21. Guests can enjoy specialty eats and sips, culinary experiences, and entertainment that will satisfy any palate!

This year, some favorite marketplaces return to the Festival Marketplace. Marketplaces such as Avocado Time and Cluck-A-Doodle-Moo. The best way to enjoy all of the marketplaces is to purchase the popular Sip and Savor Pass, which includes eight opportunities to try all of your favorite and new palate discoveries! Over at Sonoma Terrace, you can enjoy a new limited-time expanded wine and beer menu under the relaxing shade. The festival continues at the Paradise Gardens Bandstand and Palisades Stage with live music.

Make sure to experience “Jammin’ Chefs,” where your favorite Disney characters join in on some cooking themed musical fun.

Guests can learn how to add some sizzle into their kitchen at the Hollywood Backlot Stage. Disney and celebrity chefs share their secrets and tips to preparing their favorite dishes during cooking demonstrations. You can even join Chef Daniella Malfitano on select days for a special demonstration dedicated to family-friendly cooking.
