Concert | Kris Allen plays the Epcot International Food and Wine Festival, November 2 and 3, 2019


America Gardens Theatre at Epcot World Showcase
November 2 and 3, 2019

Kris takes a break from the 10 Years 1 Night tour and heads to Disney World in Florida for the Epcot International Food and Wine Festival. (He's told the meet and greet crowds during the tour he'll be in Disney with the family over Halloween too.)

This is a huge, fall-long, festival that features international food and wines at the various Epcot neighborhoods, paired with concerts by many entertainers. Kris takes his turn on November 2 and 3. There are three shows. Saturday the 2nd, the shows are at 6:30 p.m., 7:45 p.m. and 9:00 p.m. On Sunday the 3rd, the shows are at 5:30 p.m., 6:45 p.m. and 8:00 p.m.

Updated November 9 with another great full length video from Epcot plus some more video that's been shared... thank you to all the fans who are passing on these links!

The Social

Orlando, FL
Doors 8:00 PM EST


Opening Act: John Frank


Show and List Preview:
Following their nice cruise to Cozumel aboard the Rock Boat, it's time for KAB to head home. They're going to take the long musical route though, and do a couple of shows on the way, starting with this return engagement to the Social in Orlando, FL.

We've got a lot of fans who traveled for this one! Must be that wintry weather... I anticipate our best list in awhile.

6:30 PM EST
(Note: VIP has a Meet and Greet with
Kris after Boyce Avenue's set )

Opening Act: Curtis Peoples


All Ages




Show and List Preview:

This is it ... the last No Limits Tour show. Some of you may recall that Kris played this particular venue back in 2009 for a radio station's Christmas show. So let's hope he plays his Christmas song! Also will be interesting to see if there are any on-stage collaborations or tour pranks.

After this show, Kris will have a break for Thanksgiving, then play a college gig (Fontbonne State in St. Louis) in early December. Then a Florida tour in January follows, capped off with the Rock Boat cruise.

Updated: Set list and media (including an awesome prank by Curtis Peoples and bandmate played on Kris) after the break...

Night of Joy
Walt Disney World
Orlando, FL

September 6 and 7, 2013
Sometime between 7:30 pm and 1:30 am

Event and List Preview
Well we got blindsided a little by this. A Disney worker spilled the beans on Twitter, excited that Kris would stay at her resort. Later, Kris just tweeted he was going to Disney World but didn't say why.

Well, apparently he was participating in some manner in a apparently huge private-but-not-really after-hours Christian music festival, although he was not on the list of concert performers and this is not listed on his schedules at KAO or Fleming.

This flyer contains all we know. It's at Disney and sponsored by World Vision. From making a list for you this morning, radio stations have been doing ticket giveaways and Disney and some of the artists have been promoting this event. No one beyond that flyer has promoted Kris' involvement in it.

Just to get it off my chest, personally I don't think it makes any sense PR-wise to not include this on his list of appearances, given that they've listed something that is basically a HS talent show. Plus, from doing all the lists, I know Kris does have quite a few fans who enjoy Christian music and the other acts involved, and they might have gotten tickets to the festival if they had known about it. Not to mention, Kris fans were very supportive of his efforts for World Vision.

But I know many of my followers enjoy following Kris' every move, so I have made you a list. People are liberally using #nightofjoy as a hashtag on Twitter. There are a lot of people who are going to be there but no guarantees that anyone will tweet about Kris.

Updated After The Show:

Kris played both September 6 and 7. He spoke about WorldVision and played a solo acoustic version of One Love by Bob Marley both nights. The set list post can be found here. Saw a few tweets from his fans saying if they had only known, they wouldn't have turned down opportunities they had to go to Night of Joy. Too bad.

We did get video snippets though:
Upside: There was a decent crowd there and it's good for new fans to gain exposure to Kris. Hopefully the details of his future performance plans can be revealed in time for those who need to travel to be able to make their plans.

Jillette Johnson opening



The Out Alive tour continues on its Florida swing to Orlando and a show at the Back Booth. Big Daddy tweeted to see if anyone had a Universal hookup, so hopefully we might get even more fun amusement park tweets today.

Tonight's list is going to resemble last night's, and we'll have two out of three of our main tweeters from last night, which is great because they did a great job! Plus some new folks as well.

Update: Don't miss the videos where a guy leaps on stage and of course Breakdown!

Throwback Thursday: December 5, 2010: Kris plays Orlando Mix 105.1's Holiday Soiree

Every Thursday we take a look back at awesome Kris videos of yore! And this month, with the imminent arrival of Waiting for Christmas, we will be getting into throwback Thursday holiday mode!

Today we travel back two years to when Kris was one of the artists participating in Mix 105.1 (Orlando)'s annual holiday concert.

The radio station shot this awesome video of Kris singing the Christmas Song at the House of Blues in Orlando on December 5, 2010. Enjoy! (And by the way, if you are in that area, Kris will appear at Back Booth on January 23, 2013! Get your tickets now!)
