It’s the most wonderful time of the year to enjoy treats at Walt Disney World! Whether you are resort hopping, visiting Disney Springs, or checking out the parks, you’ll be able to find lots of seasonal treats no matter where you go. One of our favorite places to get snacks and treats any time of year is definitely EPCOT.
During late November through the end of December, EPCOT hosts the International Festival of the Holidays. Highlights of this festival include numerous holiday food kitchens, the popular Candlelight Processional, JOYFUL! A Celebration of the Season, and the Holiday Storytellers in World Showcase. As is the case with other EPCOT festivals, the Festival of the Holidays has a fun food crawl to enjoy as you make your way around to the different food booths. May I present to you: the 2025 Cookie Stroll!
The Cookie Stroll is a fun, delicious festival activity that anyone can try. Participation is simple. Grab a festival passport when you enter the park or from any of the holiday food kitchens. Inside, you will find a list of cookies that are eligible for the stroll. There are thirteen participating cookies this year. In order to receive a prize, you must purchase five eligible cookies. You can get five different cookies, five of the same cookie, or any combination. Each time you purchase an eligible cookie, collect a stamp in your festival passport.
Once you have collected five stamps, head over to Holiday Sweets & Treats (located near Port of Entry) to collect your completer prize! It’s important to note the Cookie Stroll is available for the length of the festival. This means you don’t have to complete the whole thing in a single day. Just be sure to get all of your stamps and stop by Holiday Sweets & Treats by December 30th!

The food crawls are some of my favorite EPCOT festival activities. Quite honestly, it’s nice to be rewarded with a little something extra just for making purchases I would have made anyway. There are numerous sweet treats and savory options to discover at the EPCOT International Festival of the Holidays, so hopefully you’ve made your list and checked it twice!
