I had thought that I remembered seeing that these events included a voucher for a quick service meal...upcoming AK event only mentions...Complimentary refreshments...
Has this changed???

They've used that same wording for previous MM events which actually used meal vouchers.
 
Meal vouchers??
Haven't been able to go to one in awhile. Last time we went they had just snacks....including Mickey Bars at various locations. Is not the way it works anymore?

With the 2018 and forward events they have given out meal vouchers and the only available free snacks have been the premium ice cream bars.

Okay....that you.
Good to know not to eat dinner before we go.
DH just wants Mickey bars :rotfl:

We did AK Moonlight magic in both 2017 (just snacks) and 2018 (food vouchers)
For AK Moonlight Magic:
  • Mickey bars were only given out at 'Creature Comforts' (Starbucks), starting when the DVC event actually starts.
  • Food vouchers were good at Satu'li Canteen, Restaurantosaurus, Pizzafari, and Flame Tree BBQ starting at 6PM (or whenever they allow you early entrance for the event.) The food voucher is good for 1 entree and a fountain beverage.
  • They did have water stations set up in multiple locations. (plastic cups and thermoses of ice water)
 


Are food and/or drink places open once the event actually starts....like for soda, etc
 
Anyone attending the upcoming AK event on January 21st that can share any details they may have received? I thought I read that they send an e-mail the week beforehand with some info.

Awesome! Thank you!
 
Does anyone know if you get a food voucher for an under 3 year old since they don't require a ticket? My 1 year old often eats more than my 3 year old, so it'd be nice if she could get a food voucher too.
 
Our dates coincide only with TL this year.
We did that one in the past but don’t recall receiving a meal voucher as with the Theme park ones. Has that changed?
 
Thanks for posting the email, we are going to the AK MM on 2/11. The email didn't mention the free ice cream bars? That's what I am most looking forward to, lol. I hope someone comes back tomorrow to tell us how it went. Have fun.

If it's the same as with prior DAK MM Events, the ice cream will be available at the Starbucks location once the event start.

They only gave out chips and icecream at the 2017 & 2018 Typhoon moonlight magic.
It has changed. We went in Oct 2019 and we got meal vouchers. Fair warning though the lines for food do get long. We went to the 2nd one last year and someone here recommended eating earlier to avoid the lines. We did that were glad we did.
