I’m going to the Food & Wine Festival next weekend and wanted to know more about the Sampler Package. Can you use the entitlements for ANY food or drink? Even drink flights? Can you purchase them online ahead of time or only at the festival? How many do they sell each day? I would appreciate any info. Thanks!
