The big Saturday night Party for the Senses, a popular weekly event during the Epcot International Food & Wine Festival, will be a series of seven distinctive events celebrating a variety of epicurean themes in 2009.
Beginning with a bash celebrating Spanish cuisine on Sept. 26, Party for the Senses will treat guests to an evening alive with gastronomy at its best combined with world-class musical acts. During October, Party for the Senses will celebrate Comfort Foods with a Twist (Oct. 3), South American Cuisine (Oct. 10), Classical Cuisine (Oct. 17), Asian Cuisine (Oct. 24) and Fall Harvest (Oct. 31).
Guests start the evening with special seating at the Eat to the Beat! concert series at the America Gardens Theatre for a performance by a big-name musical artist. Immediately following the performance, World ShowPlace becomes the setting for a grand culinary event. Guests can casually explore the flavors being served at tempting tasting stations in the midst of imaginative décor and entertainment from 6:30-9 p.m.
A limited number of guests can enhance the evening by arranging for a spot in the new Wine View Lounge, an exclusive area within Party for the Senses where they can mingle, relax and engage in pleasant conversation. The lounge features amenities such as private reserved tables, a welcome specialty drink, premium bar, an artisanal cheese station, parting gifts and more.
Party for the Senses costs $135 per person, plus tax (gratuity is included). Theme park admission is required. The Wine View Lounge is an additional $75 (per person, plus tax, including gratuity). Reservations are available by calling 407/WDW-FEST (939-3378).
