About this event

Calling All Disney-Loving Castaways… Your EPCOT Era Awaits!

 

The PGI Castaways are planning a magical getaway to the EPCOT International Food & Wine Festival from September 16th – September 19th… and trust us, this is not your average Disney trip.

 

Think cocktails around the world, late-night laughs, incredible food booths, fireworks over the lagoon, spontaneous rides, matching ears, resort hopping, and making memories with fellow Castaways who know Disney magic is even better with adult money and no curfew.

 

Several of us have already booked an affordable Airbnb nearby, and on Thursday afternoon we’ll meet in front of the iconic EPCOT ball for the ultimate group photo. (Exact time TBD.)

 

Florida residents may want to look into Disney’s weekday “Pixie Pass,” which includes standard parking and select dining and merchandise discounts. Date-based tickets are also available with several flexible options. Please refer directly to Disney for complete details and blackout dates.

 

And yes… Park Hopping adventures and a Monorail Pub Crawl are officially in the works.
Because nothing says “living your best life” quite like sipping cocktails at the Polynesian, Contemporary, and Grand Floridian while traveling the highways in the sky.

 

Best of all — the Monorail Pub Crawl does NOT require park admission. You’ll only need to pay for parking, plus whatever food and beverages you’d like along the way.

 

Come for the whole adventure or just part of the fun — whether you’re there for the snacks, the drinks, the rides, the fireworks, or simply the Disney vibes, there’s a little magic for everyone.

 

Please note: Members are responsible for booking their own lodging accommodations and purchasing their own park tickets.

 

So grab your ears, charge your MagicBand, and prepare for a weekend filled with pixie dust, passport stamps, and Castaways chaos — Disney Adult style.
