Hi, Mary-Therese! Thank you for bringing this great question to planDisney.
To me, the only thing that can make dining at
Walt Disney World Resort even more magical is
dining with characters. Not only are you able to feast on delicious meals in a beautiful atmosphere, but you can spend a little time with some of your favorite storybook characters, too! Like you, I'm thrilled to hear that
Akershus Royal Banquet Hall will be opening on November 4, 2022 but I'm also excitedly awaiting the return of the princesses at
Cinderella's Royal Table.
Mary-Therese, I'm so sorry to say that we don't know quite when characters will return to Cinderella's Royal Table at this time. My best piece of advice would be to keep an eye on the
Disney Parks Blog, which always seems to share these exciting updates first! Until then, I'd love to share with you my favorite destination for exceptional dining with one of my favorite princesses. I think you'll love
Story Book Dining at Artist Point with Snow White! This has an incredible menu and a beautiful atmosphere that's sure to put an extra dose of magic into your trip. Not only that, but you'll be visited by Snow White, Dopey, and Grumpy! You'll even get a chance to meet with The Queen herself... if you dare! Whatever dining you choose, be sure to make an
advance dining reservation 60 days prior to your trip.
I'm wishing upon a star that we hear good news about Cinderella's Royal Table soon, Mary-Therese! And I hope that your next visit to Walt Disney World Resort is filled with royalty. If you have any other questions, please visit us again!
You've got a friend in me!
