Runners get ready! Registration for the 10th annual Disney Wine & Dine Half Marathon Weekend opens tomorrow, March 19.
This is a fun race weekend that takes place during the Epcot International Food & Wine Festival. This year the race weekend dates are October 31 – November 3, 2019. Guests can register starting at 10 a.m. (ET), but spots can go quickly, so if this is something you want to sign up for I wouldn’t wait too long.

The Disney Fall Feast 5K will give participants the chance to run, walk, or jog, around the world for the first time. Speaking of new things, the Post-Race Party will now allow guests to enter the park at 5 p.m., which is earlier than previous years, and guests will get to meet rare characters starting at 10 p.m. If you sign up for the half marathon or the Disney Two Course Challenge then you will automatically get entry to the Post-Race Party. If you have friends and family who would like to join you they can buy tickets for the party starting tomorrow, as well.
Know someone who is participating, but you’re not a runner? You can still participate by getting the ChEAR Squad package for the 10K and Half Marathon races. The package includes a runDisney ChEAR Squad bag, stadium blanket and cowbell, reserved finish line grandstand seating (first come, first served), drinks, and private restrooms.

Everyone I know who has done a Disney race always comes back saying what a fantastic time they had. There’s Disney magic on every mile!
