Just booked Festival Discovery Sampler! $62.85 per person inclusive of tax, 8 entitlements per person must be used same day on ANY food or drink booth!
6:45 Priority Seating at Eat to the Beat Concert and I have been told a VIP card. Hopefully, the CM gave me correct information that the VIP Card can be used for the day for "front of the line" at booths. Pick up at the Festival Center Future World East no earlier than 9AM on same day!
CANNOT WAIT! SO EXCITED for First F&W!

Found out this afternoon by calling Disney Dining that the CM gave me INCORRECT information this morning. The Dining CM erroneously stated that the VIP credential card was "front of the line". VIP credential card is nothing more than Priority Seating or early admission at Eat to the Beat Concert. Told a supervisor that it should be called just that, Priority Seating and not "VIP" credential card.. I communicated that I was annoyed that Disney Dining CM's can't "GET IT RIGHT" and should be disseminating correct information!

mac3mps,
Any idea what the mixology seminars might be? (I know they are from Beam Suntory, but I am trying to figure out what ended up being offered last year or might be the topic this year.). Any ideas??

The one on the 24th is Beam Suntory which I know has the Jim Beam family among other things so it will be interesting to find out what it ends up as.

The 26th is Bourbon, Rum and Whiskey. Different presenter. I don't remember who it was off the top of my head. Both Mixology Seminars were my DH's choice. (Mine was the Italian Food and Wine.)

I'll be at the 11/13 French Family Meal Traditions.

Are there not going to be any special dining events on the last day (Monday 11/16), just booths? I was hoping to fit in an Italian Regional Luncheon, but multiple CM's said it was 'unavailable', and there's nothing in the first post on this thread, so I'm wondering if I should give up on that dream, or just keep trying until it's loaded or I get a different CM...

I have a question.

I booked the Signature dinner at the Contemporary Catering Chef's Table.

I have never heard of it.

I asked the cast member if she had any details when I booked it, but she did not.

Is it situated in the kitchen of the Convention Center?

Anybody have any information?
