Food and Wine special events - The DVC Boards at MouseOwners.com - the place to talk DVC and Walt Disney World

I am on my phone so I can’t link. But Disney food blog has information on special events for this year’s festival. Booking starts June 14. No word yet on early booking for vacation club.

PFTS Only has two seating levels this year. Please read the description for the wine view lounge carefully, they are not promising any of the perks you may have received in the past besides a parting gift. I’ve never been able to justify this on a price point and over the last few years I can’t justify on service and extras either. So I guess I’m done with this event after going for years (NOTE: I have now been informed that Disney Blog says you get the perks from prior years. I have not read anything yet as I am still probably giving it a pass after last year's fiasco. Plus the week I am going is "Disney chefs week" ... Not exciting IMHO)

Looks like they have the low cost demos and seminars posted, but not the specialty dining ones.

And unless they haven't announced it yet, we don't get a $2 discount or advance reservation date.

They might as well call it the Wine Tasting Seminars. Hardly any beers and liquors.

based on the title of this thread does that mean we eat and get flatulence????

Well, boo - there are brunch offerings every Sunday - except Sept 30, the Sunday we are there! What is going on that weekend? I can't get anything for CG brunch that day either.

It clearly does!
And does this mean I'm allowed to call out a misspelling too?! I usually have to grit my teeth to hold it back...

It's still looking like DVC members don't get any advance booking advantage, nor any discount as in previous years (since they started charging, that is).

Certainly a very vague announcement.......so typical of Disney.
