This year, during the Epcot International Food & Wine Festival, Annual Passholders can collect two free items just for visiting.
On your first visit to the festival, head to the Festival Center to pick up a Chef Mickey magnet. With three more visits, Annual Passholders receive a free cutting board on the 4th visit to the 2018 event.
Valid Annual Pass card and photo ID required. One magnet and one cutting board per Passholder. Magnets and cutting boards available while supplies last.
Im coming october 4-9 is this the time period for the magnet?
It’s available throughout the festival, while supplies last.
Unlike the Donald magnet there’s no real timeframe or time limit on the magnet, just a supply limit. Meaning if they made 10,000 magnets, once they give them out it’s done, regardless if they all ran out on the first day or the last day of the festival.
4th visit? how are they tracking this?
By scanning your ticket
So by scanning your ticket, does that mean scanning your Magic Band to get into Epcot or scanning your card AP card at the Festival Center? Thanks, never had an AP before.
In the past just scanning your magic band to get into the park is what counts the amount of times you’ve been there
amazing people forget their annual pass is a RFID chip that is scanned and tracked….
It is amazing that people who criticize others meaninglessly often forget that their numerous communication errors actually flip the meaning of their insults from negative to positive. Haha.
You are pretty much saying that people who forget that their annual pass is an RFID chip device are amazing! Now, amazing can be positive and negative, but most folks take it as positive. So, thank you for making people smile positively! :-D
Scanning our card? Can it be consecutive days? Hours?
Yes it can be consecutive days
Does going to festival 4 days on a seven day vacation in October count as 4 visits?
Yes
When are the creative people at Disney going to come up with something other than one of these magnets? Granted, they are inexpensive to mass produce, but event after event after event with an ‘oh-so-similar’ gift?
The cutting board?
the Magnet!
Tom is saying that the cutting board IS different, Bill. Plus, I know many passholders who love to collect the different magnets. There’s always gotta be someone negative in the group.
I don’t have an annual pass card. How do I get one?
No idea. You should probably get a card.
People are selling them online for about $40.00
coming oct3-oct7 can I get both items?
As long as you go to Epcot 4 times and they’re still in stock.
So 4 times does that mean I can go in the morning on 8/30 and then leave to go to Magic Kingdom for a few hours, then go back to Epcot in the evening. Would that count as 2 visits? Or is it one visit per day? I’m asking because we are from CT and are going to be there from 8/29-9/1, just wondering if we would be eligible for the cutting board :) lol
No, separate days
That is what I thought. Thank you for clarifying.
If a train leaves St Louis and another leaves from Atlanta, what speed would they need to travel…to get to Epcot 4x for this cutting board?
I will make my 4th visit to Epcot next week. Can you tell me where to pick up the cutting board?
For those of you “like me” who did a google search to see if you can go 4 times in one day and get the cutting board it can be done. I went and picked up my magnet on the first visit of the day. Then I alternated between the two entrances three more times and it worked.
I just want to confirm that this works! My girlfriend and I just went in and out multiple times with a few minutes spread in between and they gave us both the board and the magnet!
To be honest, I’m not sure if they would really know if you’ve been there four times or if they check it because they just scan and a big check mark appears in their screens, but we went in and out 4 times just to be sure.
What worked in September doesn’t work in October. It now has to be four separate visits or you just got lucky with a Cast Member. Yeah for you, Boo for us.
