FashionEarsta’s review of the 2021 Disney Food & Wine Festival Ears!
The 2021 Epcot International Food & Wine Festival has arrived! This annual event is running from July 15, 2021 until November 20, 2021 and is filled with culinary delights and fashion! One of our recommendations for go to fashion accessories to wear at the festival are the 2021 Disney Food & Wine Festival Ears by Disney Parks.
We love taking the journey around the world to sip and taste all the culinary treats that the Disney Food & Wine Festival has to offer each year. At FashionEarsta, we always have an eye towards the fashion at the Festival. Even while dining on teriyaki-glazed SPAM at the Hawaii booth or sipping a Pinot Grigio in Italy, we are all about spotting style. As soon as these ears debuted, we could see them on fellow Epcot World Travelers. Check out our review below.

So, here’s how these Food & Wine Festival ears look in real life:
DISNEY FOOD & WINE FESITVAL EARS REVIEW
What We Loved
Bow
Great!
The bow is the BEST part about these ears!
The bow is cushioned very well and springs back when you push into it. It is proportioned nicely to the size of the ears as well.
While we wish the apples were more prominently featured, the touch of apples is unique and references the sweet treats of the Disney Food & Wine Festival!
Ear Shape/Size:
Great!
The shape fits great on the head with these ears.
I sometimes find with official Disney ears that they are a little long in the headband but the fit is still comfortable!
Turnaround Time:
These official ears are not on shopDisney yet so you will need to purchase in Epcot.
Pricing:
$$
These ears were priced at $29.99.
If you are an Annual Pass Holder or Disney Vacation Club Member, don’t forget to use your discount.
Wearability
Good.
The wearability with official Disney ears is usually good and these ears were no exception.
We think you’ll find them comfortable for a day around the world!
Headband:
Good.
This headband has the traditional velvet interior that is common on official Disney ears. This helps with wearability and comfort.
The headband quality is very high but the official Disney ears tend to have a longer headband which can sit behind your ears.
The wording on the headband says Epcot International Food & Wine Festival 2021 but the colors are difficult to see and the printing is crooked.
Shipping/Packaging:
We bought these ears in Epcot so no shipping was needed.
Materials:
Good.
I LOVE the padding in the bow but the ears could have used a little more padding to them.
The sparkles on the bow are a nice finish. But as a sparkle lover we could have used more sparkle and maybe some red sparkles as well .
The velvet headband was a great way to add texture and quality to the finished product.
Who would love these?
FashionEarstas who love the annual Disney Food & Wine Festival.
What Needs Work
Unique Theme/Style:
Fair.
The Ears are from the Apple Orchard collection for the 2021 Epcot International Food & Wine Festival.
This collection offers a touch of sweetness to the festival with coordinating merchandise featuring Mickey and Minnie baking apples. Unfortunately, the theme was underdeveloped with the ears.
We wish the apples were a little more prominent on the design. They could have been even cuter with more focus on the ear design.
Stitching/Gluing:
Fair.
We did see a few stray pieces of fabric on the ears and the stitching of the ears was not as good as we have seen in the past with official Disney ears.
Where should future FashionEarstas be seen in these ears?
Epcot! The best time to wear the Epcot International Food & Wine Festival Ears is touring the world with friends and family as you sample the amazing tastes of 6 continents. Plus, you can wear them to the opening of Remy’s Ratatouille Adventure located in the France pavilion and opening October 1, 2021!
Overall Score: 
(4.5/5)
Overall, I liked these ears! But, I did feel as if they could have been more creative and inspired to tie into the Apple Orchard themed collection.
I hope that you found this review helpful! I’d love to hear what you think of this review or just other magical things you have to share in the comments! Make sure you check us out on Pinterest, Facebook and Instagram; chances are you will see our ears in action!
