Bonjour!
Welcome to planDisney, Kate! Thank you for bringing your question to us today. It sounds like you’re planning a magical holiday to
Disneyland Paris! I have been lucky enough to visit all the Disney Parks around the world, and in my opinion,
Disneyland Park in Paris is the most beautiful of them all.
Plaza Gardens Restaurant is a must-do for my family on every visit, and the dinner reservation might just be my favourite. It has all the fun of character dining, but in my experience, it feels a little calmer than breakfast. Yes, Kate, it is true that Plaza Gardens offers
character dining at breakfast and dinner, while lunchtime features a great all-you-can-eat buffet without characters. However, I have often seen Tigger and Piglet meeting guests just outside the restaurant, but check out the
Disneyland Paris app for a full list of character meet and greets.
Character dining at Plaza Gardens can be booked as part of a
hotel and ticket package, or added later by
calling Disneyland Paris, just have your booking reference number to hand. For guests not staying at a Disney Hotel, any remaining reservations become available on the Disneyland Paris app three days beforehand. In my experience, availability often opens up as guests finalise their plans, so I recommend checking regularly on the app, right up to the day of your visit.
You’re visiting Disneyland Paris at such an exciting time! The brand-new night-time spectacular,
Disney Tales of Magic, has recently debuted to great reviews. I am avoiding all spoilers online because I want to experience it for the first time in person. Nothing beats a Disney night-time spectacular!
I hope this helps, Kate, and I hope you have a brilliant holiday visiting Disneyland Paris. If you have any other questions, please feel free to
reach out to me, I’d love to help.
Have a magical day,
Matt
