Fall is an amazing time to visit Walt Disney World Resort, especially if you’re a fan of the annual Epcot International Food & Wine Festival and all the delicious opportunities that pack the park during those months.
Annual Passholders planning to visit Epcot this fall won’t want to miss out on special offerings planned exclusively for them. Read on!
Walt Disney World Annual Passholders visiting the Epcot International Food & Wine Festival are eligible to receive a complimentary Chef Minnie magnet (August 29- October 14), and a Chef Remy magnet (October 15-November 23). On the Annual Passholder’s fourth visit to the festival, they can also receive a complimentary Chef Minnie wooden coaster set.

One Chef Minnie magnet, one Chef Remy magnet and one coaster set per Passholder.
Not only do Annual Passholders receive a 20% discount on merchandise, but there have also been several festival items created exclusively for Passholders, including tees, caps, mugs, pins and more. Passholders can also receive a 10% discount on Eat to the Beat Concert Series dining packages.
