Date Night at Epcot’s Festival of the Arts!
Just you, the one you love, and a lot of Figment!
I’ve spent several decades having a date night with my wife once a week. Every year we share with all of you the latest and greatest at each of the annual Epcot Festivals. Rather than just go through the motions of sharing the latest and greatest differences in the most recent festival, I thought I would talk about how to make a date night really special for you and the one closest to you. Much of this can be applied to many of the festivals, but we’ll focus this podcast on Epcot’s annual Festival of the Arts. We’ll chat about different activities to enjoy to include Figment, stuff to buy–to include Figment, food to sample and best of all the entertainment. In fact, this festival has some of the best shows you can see anywhere in Disney property. So join us for Date Night at Epcot’s Festival of the Arts, where it’s just you, the one your love, and yes, a lot of Figment!
