Photo from the 2023 Epcot International Festival of the HolidaysWe’re still waiting on much of the information for the Epcot International Festival of the Holidays. That said, we do know the dates. It will take place from November 29 through December 30. The Epcot International Festival of the Holidays traditionally starts the day after Thanksgiving. Since Thanksgiving is late this year, the Epcot International Festival of the Holidays will be short.
