Food and beverages at the festival will also be themed to match the shows, with “dirty sodas” from “The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives” and treats from a “Deli Boys”-inspired vending machine. Activations will include a DJ booth featuring artwork from “Beatles ’64” and “Music by John Williams,” as well as a Subsoccer game themed after “Welcome to Wrexham.”
