EPCOT Opens Cheers to Cheese Exhibit in CommuniCore Hall

The interactive cheese installation sells festival menu items and is scheduled to close on November 8 ahead of the Food & Wine Festival’s November 21 end.

Overview

  • CommuniCore Hall has been transformed into a cheese‑focused space called Cheers to Cheese that opened as part of EPCOT’s 30th Anniversary Food & Wine Festival.
  • The exhibit features hands‑on displays such as Cheese of the Day, Spin the Wheel, Perfect Pairings, and boards on cheese origins and history to offer short, educational experiences inside the hall.
  • Guests can buy cheese‑forward menu items at the installation that count toward festival tastings, including mac-and-cheese varieties and a cheese plate, with the Crab and Corn Macaroni and Cheese singled out in coverage as a standout item.
  • The exhibit is one element of a phased rollout of new marketplaces and offerings that opened after the festival start, a scheduling choice that has changed how visitors plan visits and prompted questions in early coverage about staffing and logistics.
  • The addition ties into broader festival programs such as Emile’s Fromage Montage, festival passports, and brand partnerships on select booths, giving visitors new ways to track tastings and collect festival rewards before the exhibit closes on November 8.
