EPCOT Festival of the Arts 2026 will feature Disney Lorcana Quest activities when the festival begins on January 16.
Quest Distribution Station Located
A Lorcana Quest Distribution station has been set up on the World Showcase bridge. This location previously hosted chalk drawing activities for children during past festivals.
Station Features:
- Disney Lorcana artwork
- “Quest Distribution While Supplies Last” signage
- Festival Questbook pickup
The “While Supplies Last” notice indicates limited materials available throughout the festival period.
Two Quest Activities Available
Ink & Find Scavenger Hunt: Guests pick up Festival Questbooks at the distribution station to participate in a park-wide scavenger hunt. The activity encourages exploration throughout EPCOT while following Lorcana-themed clues.
Collection Quest at Morocco: A separate Quest activity will be available specifically at the Morocco Pavilion. This provides a more focused option for guests with limited time.
Both activities reward participants with promotional Lorcana cards upon completion.
Promotional Card Prizes
Promo cards serve as exclusive rewards for Quest completion. These cards:
- Cannot be obtained through standard booster pack purchases
- Hold special value for collectors
- Feature limited distribution only during the festival
Lorcana collectors often seek promotional cards due to their restricted availability and unique distribution methods.
Photo Opportunity
A Disney Lorcana photo op will also be positioned on the World Showcase bridge near the Quest Distribution station. The photo opportunity likely features oversized card imagery or character artwork for shareable social media content.
About Disney Lorcana
Disney Lorcana is a trading card game that launched in 2023. The game has grown rapidly in popularity among both serious card game players and casual Disney fans.
Game Features:
- Strategic gameplay mechanics
- Beautiful card artwork featuring Disney characters
- Regular expansions with new characters and cards
- Collectible appeal beyond just gameplay
The game recently celebrated its second anniversary and continues expanding with new card sets throughout 2025 and 2026.
Why Lorcana Fits Festival of the Arts
Festival of the Arts celebrates artistic expression across multiple mediums. Lorcana cards feature original artwork as a central component, making them collectible art pieces that align with the festival’s creative focus.
Each card showcases illustrations created specifically for the game, often reimagining classic Disney characters in new artistic styles. This artwork-focused aspect connects naturally to the festival’s celebration of visual arts.
Planning Your Disney Visit
Timing Considerations: Visit the Quest Distribution station early during your festival visit. The “While Supplies Last” warning should be taken seriously, particularly during popular weekends when attendance peaks.
Weather Alert: Opening day (January 16) is forecasted to have very cold temperatures. Guests planning outdoor scavenger hunt activities should dress appropriately for winter weather.
Time Requirements: Budget sufficient time to complete Quest activities. The park-wide Ink & Find scavenger hunt may require significant time depending on clue complexity and number of locations involved.
The Morocco Pavilion Collection Quest offers a quicker alternative for guests with scheduling constraints.

Who Should Participate
Existing Lorcana Players: Quest activities provide opportunities to acquire exclusive promotional cards unavailable through other channels. Players who collect complete sets will want these festival-exclusive items.
Disney Fans New to Lorcana: The scavenger hunt format offers a low-pressure introduction to the Lorcana concept. Participants can engage with the activity without prior knowledge of card game mechanics.
Families with Children: Interactive scavenger hunts provide structured activities that give purpose to wandering through World Showcase pavilions.
Additional Festival Activities
Lorcana Quests represent one of many interactive elements at Festival of the Arts. The festival also features:
- Disney on Broadway Concert Series
- Art installations and galleries
- Food studios with creative culinary presentations
- Artist demonstrations and meet-and-greets
The addition of Lorcana activities expands the festival’s interactive offerings while introducing a trading card game element to EPCOT’s event programming.
Supplies and Availability at Disney
The Quest Distribution station’s “While Supplies Last” designation suggests Disney has allocated specific quantities of materials and prizes. Guests visiting toward the end of the festival period (late February) may find supplies depleted.
Early festival attendance provides the best opportunity to participate in Quest activities and earn promotional cards before materials run out.
