EDIT: I thought this was at the Arts Festival in EPCOT, but it's in DCA. Tho, would be nice to come to WDW.

OK... this is... interesting....



So, I guess this means every festival cashier is a cashier for every festival booth?

That would have come in handy last festival (Holiday). My friend and I had our booths planned: Morocco, Israel, Beermany. We purchased at the first; walked our meals to the second and purchased there; walked to Germany and got a table; friend then went and purchased beer. Ate it all.

In this new system, we could have ordered it all at the first cashier and then just have gone straight to each counter. I guess.

That would be amazing during F&W! I hope this test works.

They’ve been using this system at DCA for a little while now. I remember reading about it for last year’s Lunar New Year or F&W. So it’s not really a test at this point, just something that isn’t well known or well utilized. It’d be great if they started using it here though!

Oops. Just realized that this tweet is from DCA and not EPCOT. Altered my post above to make that clear.

Yeah, it would be nice to come to EPCOT.

Couldn't you just bring mobile ordering for them?

Not a fan of the idea tbh.

Somewhat surprised no one shared the festival poster for this year:

It's very nice. Perhaps the direction to Mr. Kaz was "create an image that obscures all of the construction work going on during the festival."

Ah, if I went to DCA more than once every few years, I probably would’ve visited one of their festivals and known this. Most of my SoCal trips involve two days at DL and move on to the rest of the region, with DCA tacked on every once in a while.

The dca version of these festivals is not nearly as good as the Epcot versions when it comes to the food booths. The extra entertainment can be quite good though.

Such a great festival!! The broadway shows were great and watching the artists at work and getting to meet them is so enjoyable.

Trevor Carlton’s performances, as always, are a real highlight and I like where the stage is this year, seems to attract more people to stay and watch.

Nice to see those recent styised Epcot 'Attraction posters' finally get released officially as prints.
Too bad it's only 100 of each.

Perhaps they will do a wider release of the images in a different form.
That set made for the display at last years D23 Expo was stunning.
They are a welcome edition to the walls of the Odyssey at Epcot.
