The 2024 Lunar New Year is officially here at Disney California Adventure and the Sip & Savor Tasting Passport which allows you sample a selection of tasting-sized portions has been updated with a new process that utilizes a barcode instead of tear-away coupon tabs.

EDITOR’S NOTE: This posting was updated on 1/29 with images of the digital pass.

The traditional version of the pass is still available for now leaving you two different ways to experience the festival. The version you get will depend on availability but they will cost the same either way for the six redemptions.

Two Types of Passes

For the first time, Disney is offering two different types of passes. They cost the same, they just work a little bit differently.

Traditional Pass, Coupon Tabs

This is the traditional way lanyards have worked in the past.

  • Simply present your pass to a Cast Member at the location with the coupon(s) still attached.
  • Make your order and follow Cast Member instructions on when to remove your tabs.
  • The coupon must be attached to the Sip and Savor Pass at the time of redemption and must be surrendered to the Cast Member at the time of use. Detached coupons will not be valid.

Scannable Pass, Digital Coupons

This is a newer way to help streamline the process

  • Simply present your pass to a Cast Member, they will scan your pass at the location.
  • You will also need to provide the Cast Member with the 4-digit code located on the back your pass.
  • The remaining number of digital coupons on the pass will be printed on the receipt.
  • You may also ask a Cast Member at any Festival Marketplace to scan the Sip and Savor Pass to confirm the number of digital coupons remaining on the pass.

Pricing

  • Regular ($46)
  • Magic Key passholders ($43)

VALUE ALERT: To get the most bang for your buck out of the passport, you’ll just want to make sure you don’t get any of the items that cost less than $7.67 (regular) or $7.17 (Magic Key passholder). Considering the prices, that shouldn’t be terribly difficult as long as you avoid desserts and drinks!

Where to Purchase

The pass can be purchased at a number of places you might not expect (with shorter lines) including Sip and Savor Cart, Elias & Co., Julius Katz & Sons, Rushin’ River Outfitters, Seaside Souvenirs, and Festival Merchandise carts
