Growing Impatient for F&W Eat to the Beat Concert schedule

[Forevermarypoppins]

I will never understand why WDW can't get the acts booked so that a schedule can be released SOONER. The F&W festival starts in 2 months ( plus days). IMO, the concerts are a very big attraction along with the "food and wine". I want to schedule but refuse to do so beforehand. If WDW wants to promote the dining package w/ preferred seating, I'd like to know WHO THE ACT IS!

Concert series announcement last year was Jul 1, 2024.

I do feel your pain! Waiting here (will be much longer!) on Processional narrators for Xmas. Not till Oct .... two months before! Sure hard to ensure my travel dates align with who we hope to see.

I also am extremely anxious to know who/when the acts will be. It's been a few years since we've been to the F&W. Are there performers every night, or only certain nights of the week now?

Last year, there were concerts every afternoon and evening. The times are generally at 5:30, 6:45, & 8:00 p.m. The Eat to the Beat Dining packages could be reserved starting on July 9th last year.

There is an extensive thread on the restaurant board which will be updated as information regarding the festival is released by WDW:

Well past the day one of ADR's. Ridiculous!

July 1st is 2 days after the 60 day mark for the first day of F&W.

It is entirely possible (and even likely) that the dinner package inventory is separate from the "regular" ADRs. That is usually true for e.g. the Fantasmic packages.
