Happiest Greetings on Earth, Tom! I'm so excited to see you back here at planDisney, and it's always an honor to help our fellow Guests plan their magical adventures to Disneyland Resort.
I'm glad you're taking advantage of that full 60-day window to reserve your
table-service dining experiences and possibly other activities from the
Enchanting Extras Collection. For my family, it always makes the trip seem a little more real when you secure those reservations and start planning your itinerary! I'm sorry to hear that you weren't able to confirm some of the reservations you had in mind as the advanced reservation window opened for you. Occasionally, I have found that some reservations for table-service restaurants or seasonal offerings may not yet be populated in the reservation inventory, either online or within the
official Disneyland mobile app. Unfortunately, I don't have a very good mechanism for predicting when that information will become available, especially for activities or reservations that are a part of the
Holiday offerings at Disneyland Resort.
But, I do have a couple of suggestions for you. First, I always recommend that Guests continue to check back regularly because the system updates in real time as those reservations become available. My second recommendation, especially if you are hoping for a special seasonal offering, is to go ahead and book a regular reservation at that restaurant or activity with the expectation that if it falls during the holiday time, you'll likely have the opportunity to enjoy the seasonal offering that is available during your visit dates. For example, I'm hoping to schedule a
World of Color Dessert Party for my family during our holiday visit later this year. Since,
World of Color - Season of Light will be showing on select dates from November 15, 2024, through January 6, 2024, I know that will be the version of the nighttime spectacular that we might be able to view. Unfortunately, like you, I've noticed that the World of Color Dessert Party has been temporarily unavailable since September 9 with no further information about if or when it will return, just yet. Nevertheless, I certainly hope that reservation availability will open up for the holiday season and I'll definitely be checking back regularly to find out more! With a little diligence and advanced planning, I hope we both find the reservations we're hoping to secure during the most magical time of year!
Tom, my final recommendation for you is to keep an eye on the
Disney Parks Blog for the latest news on seasonal holiday offerings at Disneyland Resort this year. It would be reasonable to expect that an announcement will be forthcoming soon, and I hope to see some exciting information about new and returning favorites during this very special time of year! There's nothing more magical than snow falling on Main Street, U.S.A., and sharing those unforgettable moments with your loved ones is the greatest gift imaginable. If we can help with any other questions in the meantime, I hope you'll head back and see us here at
planDisney. We're always happy to share some helpful tips and heartfelt advice.
Magically yours,
Tishra
