Walt Disney World Changes Line Up for 2014 Eat to the Beat Concerts at Epcot

Eat to the Beat Concerts at EpcotWe’re less than a month until the start of the Epcot International Food & Wine Festival, and there has been a change to the line-up of the Eat to the Beat concerts.

Richard Marx has also been added to a previously open spot.
