Hi Kim,
Thanks so much for popping by planDisney! I’m so excited that you're planning to stay on property. It's truly a magical way to extend the Disney experience beyond the parks. If you're looking to book a stay in 2026, I have great news: 2026 dates are now open and available for booking!
If you’re interested in paying for your trip over time, you might want to reach out to the
Walt Disney Travel Company. This is a complimentary service Disney offers to Guests. They're available daily from 7 AM to 9 PM, so just call (714) 956-6425, and a Cast Member will be happy to assist you. They can help you put together a vacation package that includes both hotel accommodations and park tickets.
The
Pixar Place Hotel is full of modern charm and celebrates all your favorite Pixar films!
Pro tip: Be sure to visit the lobby at different times throughout the day. You might spot Bing Bong spreading joy or even hear a tune from jazz legend Joe Gardner himself!
Since you're planning a visit in March 2026, keep in mind that the
Food & Wine Festival may be happening during your stay. It’s one of my favorite events because there’s such a wide variety of flavors to explore. My personal favorites from this past year were the Musubi Fried Rice and the Cherry Cobbler Pot de Crème; so delicious! You can take a look at the
2025 Foodie Guide on the Disney Parks Blog to get a taste of what’s typically offered. If you’re planning to sample several dishes, I recommend purchasing a
Sip and Savor Pass, which can offer savings on four or eight festival items (excluding alcoholic beverages).
I hope this information was helpful, Kim! If you have more questions or would like more tips for your upcoming adventure, feel free to reach out to me or any of my fellow planDisney panelists. We're always here to add a little extra pixie dust to your vacation.
Happy Planning!
