Wearable Festival Gift Cards

The Epcot International Food & Wine Festival had Disney Gift Cards

— February 6, 2017 — Lifestyle
The 2016 Epcot International Food & Wine Festival featured countless delicacies and drinks, and the festival-themed Disney Gift Cards on offer there made it easier for attendees to take advantage of those goods. Activated for as little as $15, the Disney Gift Cards came with convenient wristband attachments or lanyards (depending on the type of card) to give those at the Epcot International Food & Wine Festival a more convenient way to explore the various items there.

In terms of features, the Epcot International Food & Wine gift cards offered the same as a classic Disney Gift Card, giving attendees easy access to the products at all festival kiosks. What set them apart was their special, festival-themed design and the inclusion of a wristband strap to prevent people from having to dig through their wallets constantly.

For collectors, the festival also had a limited-edition $200 card that came with a lanyard and a medallion.
