Embark on a Quest with Disney Lorcana Trading Card Game

Love the art of card games? Well, do I have great news for you! This year at the EPCOT International Festival of the Arts, you and your family can discover the magic of the Disney Lorcana Trading Card Game!

Throughout the park, you can join an exciting Collection Quest, where as an Illumineer, you get to open Disney Lorcana booster packs and trade cards with other guests in the Illumineer’s Lounge in the Morocco Pavilion. Once complete, you can redeem a limited-edition Magical Places promo card (oooh, ahhhhh!).

Sharpen your skills with ‘Ink & Find’, where you’ll be sent on an adventure to find the larger-than-life trading cards around EPCOT. When you locate a card, you can match it to the special ink stickers on your complimentary Festival Questbook to receive an additional limited-edition Magical Place promo card! (While supplies last)

To participate in both activities, you can pick up your Festival Questbook on the bridge from World Celebration to World Showcase. When you’ve completed your adventures, you can pick up your Magical Places promo card from Illumineer’s Lounge in the Morocco Pavilion or in Figment’s Inspiration Station at The Odyssey.

Also, on your way to World Showcase, make sure to stop and get a photo at the Artful Photo Op. Featuring card art from the Disney Lorcana set Fabled, you can pose between glimmers Mickey Mouse as the Brave Little Prince and his Sweetheart Princess Minnie Mouse as they ride on a whimsical carousel.
