I really can't wait to attend my first F&W. There's so many different foods I want to try so bad after looking at the menus lol. Am an AP holder so will be going at least 4 times to get that coaster swag
I read you can get the passport that you can get stamped (I guess to know which foods you try?). Is it something to use during the whole time there, or need to pickup a new one each time? Sorry for it being a dumb question
No dumb questions! I hope you love your first F&W! The passport is primarily an optional "tool" for you to use and mark as you wish, if you wish. The only thing you will "need" the passport for is if you are doing Emile's Fromage Montage - if you try 5 different items and get the stamps, you can show your stamped passport to get a piece of cheesecake. This is the first year for this so remains to be seen how it all works. In recent years the "stamps" have been in the form of stickers that are in the center of the passport and it was "on the honor system" to check off what you tried (but there was no prize or anything). Several years back, the CMs at the register at each booth had actual stamps and you had to remember to ask to have it stamped when you were ordering (they were good about stamping if you circled back and explained you had forgotten)
Otherwise, you're free to use or not use the passport. Generally you'd use the same one throughout your trip but if you forget it in your room or something they're in ample supply (generally located with the maps and also at the festival merchandise shops) and you're free to pick up another one.
Emile’s Fromage Montage
Join Remy's brother Emile on a stroll around Epcot to enjoy a variety of delicious cheeses served in inventive ways.
Purchase 5 fabulous fromages and reward yourself with the corresponding stamp in your Festival Passport. Then, bring your Festival Passport to Shimmering Sips for a complimentary specialty cheesecake unique to the Epcot International Food & Wine Festival!
Feel free to try 5 different items, or return to the same location to revisit a favorite. Complete Emile's Fromage Montage at your own pace, in one day or over several days during this year's Epcot International Food & Wine Festival.
