Actually, you'd be more likely to see a lumberjack show than a Celtic rock band in an Irish bar in many cities in America. I can't see either in my city in America though.

Agreed. Note, that the candy maker made the decision to "retire" on her own. However, I've seen some very entertaining artistic performances online that could translate well to that pavilion. For example:
Very imaginative
Now, only if Disney would bring back Dreamfinder and restore Figment's personality.

Never liked them anyway. Off Kilter was perfect for that space. Guess they'll just keep shuffling low-cost entertainment in every 6 months.

Wait, do WDWMagic members not like the Food and Wine Festival? I thought I was well versed in all the common fan complaints. This one is new to me.

Yes, when sitting in the Chinese Garden seeking a brief moment of quiet, I always enjoyed the sound of chainsaws coming over WS Lagoon.

You know what's funny?
There is a split.

I don't think it is the F & W fest per se by itself, but the drunken craziness that many people have run into while attending the same. Add this to increased crowds and it does become problematic. Marie

Far more enjoyable than the sound of chainsaws

Food & Wine opinions are definitely split. Some view it as a money-grabbing pad for the park to avoid investment and others view it as a fun seasonal event that they look forward to and see it as something different to do every year. I'm sort of in the middle of it. I prefer Flower and Garden festival but to me they should make the park gorgeous with flowers like they do for the F&G all year long and can the name. I do think they've relied on these festivals for too long as "proof" the park is doing well, when in reality it needs a ton of help.
This is what they should have done last year with the lumberjacks. Cut them when the Voyageurs return and then figure out what to do afterwards.
I also think "Drunkytown" and "Drunk Fest" is a slight exaggeration though. It's not the park's fault people cannot control themselves. I mean, "drinking around the world" has been a thing for a very long time. A brawl will happen. A person vomiting happens. People act as if it's like some wild frat orgy where everyone is drunk and slurring their words and the park is trashed by the unruly drunks.

Fair enough.
Hit F&W for lunch on a weekday and you'll never have a problem. That's my advice, at least.

I hope they are cooking up something good for the New Year. I know that Disney can do better than the 'Jacks for sure!!! Marie
