The Marianas Visitors Authority is expanding the availability of tokens to online purchases via their official website at www.mymarianas.com. Tokens purchased via credit card, debit card, or PayPal via the website can be claimed at either the MVA office in Garapan in the afternoon or at the cashier’s booth during the festival at Garapan Fishing Base. To claim tokens, purchasers must show their QR code confirmation that they will receive after making an online payment. Festival vendor purchases will require tokens this year, and tokens can also be purchased at the festival with cash.

The Taste of the Marianas is the largest food festival in the Marianas and an annual signature event of the MVA. The festival offers affordable dishes from local hotels and restaurants, drinks from local vendors, live entertainment, and arts and crafts sales from 5pm to 10pm nightly and until 11pm on the final night.

“The MVA has used Taste tokens for over 20 years now. The use of tokens allows us to track the success of the event through sales and provide greater safety of sales revenue for vendors. It also adds a festival-like atmosphere that is common at food festivals around the world,” said MVA managing director Christopher A. Concepcion. “And now, for the first time, we’re pleased to offer Taste tokens for purchase via credit card, debit card, or PayPal using the link on our homepage. You can also pick up your tokens during the week at the MVA office, so you can skip the token line entirely at the festival.”
