Food & Wine Festival plans canceled

Well, it turns out with just over three weeks until our 4th annual Food & Wine festival trip, I have to cancel due to a business trip that can't be shifted left or right.. yuck I have obligations as a coach to my son's select soccer team, so all other weekends from early October to mid November are booked with games. October 02-07 was our only bye week.. sad I'm severly bummed about not making the trip this fall, but there's always next year. We'll likely plan a family trip, if we can work it out this winter during the Thanksgiving/Christmas season at the Parks.. All y'all going to the F&W festival this fall, drink a beer or Margarita for me awesome .... Now to start planning for the winter trip to Mickeys... clapping

I'm sure everyone going will have a drink for you! It's sad you have to cancel but at least you may not have too long to wait for your Mickey fix!

Ah Bummer!! Have you been for Christmas festivities before? It's pretty splendid!! Not as much snazzy food, but it's still an amazing time to visit! Hope you can make it work out crossfingers

I feel you. I've been bemoaning our lack of a F&W Festival trip for the past couple of weeks. Once you go it's hard to skip it. Fall is my favorite time of year at Disney.

Thanks y'all. I couldn't help but download the food & Wine Festival app.. I was so looking forward to the pork belly from Brazil and the scallops from Scotland, among many other past favorites.
