I'm sorry if this has been mentioned already but I have a question about the tickets. If we purchase the 8 ticket package, this includes 1 ticket each for anything at any booth, am i correct? This includes food, dessert and alcoholic drinks? We aren't interested in any of the seminars, just want to walk around and sample all that wonderful cuisine! Thanks!!

For the merchandise, I want that Remy mug. I'm hoping for a poster too that I can frame and put in my kitchen.

Not yet. That was included in the item that DFB mentioned being available "next week".

This is all that is available on the WDW website, hopefully more specific info will be forthcoming.

Usually, someone from the DIS goes, but I think they are all in California for D23.

I believe you are referring to the tasting sampler. We haven't heard anything about it this year, but last year it was $59 + tax for 8 coupons, and $109 + tax for 16 coupons. They were usable for most items at the booths, but some items like flights and champagne were excluded.

My wife was wondering if Charles could have covered the TIW preview for the DIS.

I'll have my review up once I get there in my dining review so probably a week or two.

Any word on FP for eat to the beat? When do they usually start allowing FP for these to be booked?

I don't believe there were any FP's offered last year for Eat to the Beat. Now that there will be not be any reserved seating for Disney Visa cardholders, maybe FP will return this year for the concerts.

It looks like Chase isn't a sponsor this year.

Chase isn't sponsoring to festival, so no visa perks.

Ok all my F&w experts, please tell me, as we switched our entire trip to see 2 of these concerts.....what is the best plan of attack to see these concerts other than spending $200 plus dollars on a dinner that I really dont want to eat at to get seating? Waiting in line hours before? Is there any other option? I'm desperate to finalize my plans, FP day is the day after tomorrow.

There wont be a concert that requires you waiting in line for hours for a good seat. Walk by the pavilion about an hour before and see what the line looks like.
