    I would like to book a Character Dining Experience for our stay, as we will be celebrating our Son's 5th birthday. Currently everything is booked up on the date we need. Is there any possible way that anything will open up?

    Hi Candice,



    Character dining is extremely popular and often fills up 180 days in advance. Sometimes you will luck out and find a cancellation. Your best bet is to keep calling and keep checking online. Even if you can't book it, don't give up yet. My family was just down at Disney World during Thanksgiving week and we were completely surprised to find several empty tables at all 3 of the character meals we had booked. People were able to be seated on a walk-up basis on those days. You can always go up to the podium and explain that it is your sons birthday and you'd love to get him in. With a little luck and pixie dust, you may just be able to be seated. I wouldn't make him any promises though, just in case.



    Hope it works out for you and that you have a wonderful vacation,



    Kaylene
