Welcome back to planDisney, Melissa!
I'm so glad that you stopped by to see us again as you plan your visit to Walt Disney World Resort! Just like you, I'm leaving very soon for my next Disney adventure, and I'm busy putting the finishing touches on our vacation plans to make sure they are practically perfect in every way!
Melissa, a
Fantasmic! Dining Package is one of my favorite reservations when I'm spending the day at
Disney's Hollywood Studios. With this package, you'll not only enjoy a delicious meal, but you'll also have reserved seating for
Fantasmic! that night! It's important to note that this package is listed as a separate dining reservation. You'll want to select the dining package from the available
advanced dining reservation list, then choose your preferred restaurant (in your case,
Sci-Fi Dine-In Theater Restaurant) from within the package options.
If you haven't dined at Sci-Fi Dine-In Theater before, you're in for a real treat! It's such a fun experience, enjoying your meal in what feels like a 1950s drive-in theater. On a hot park day, I also appreciate the dim lighting and relaxed atmosphere inside the restaurant - it's the perfect break!
With the Fantasmic! Dining Package, each adult in your party can select an entree, dessert, and beverage to enjoy. Guests over the age of 21 can choose an alcoholic or non-alcoholic beverage as their drink. Children (ages 3-9) can select a meal from the kids' "create-your-own" menu, which includes favorites such as cheeseburgers, macaroni and cheese, and even mini corn dogs! If you're traveling with any little ones under 3 years old, you'll notice that dining packages are not available for them. These littlest Mouseketeers are welcome to share food with others at the table, or you can order them a separate meal at regular menu pricing. At the end of your meal, your server will give you your seating vouchers for Fantasmic! later that evening.
planDisney Pro Tip - Did you know you can currently redeem one Table-Service meal per person for this dining package at Sci-Fi Dine-In Theater if you're on the
Disney Dining Plan? It's a great value!
As the sun goes down and showtime nears for Fantasmic!, you'll want to make sure you arrive at the Hollywood Hills Ampitheater on Sunset Boulevard at least 25 minutes before showtime to access your reserved seating. There will be a special entrance for those on the dining package where Cast Members can assist and direct you to your seats. Then it's time to sit back, relax, and enjoy one of my favorite
nighttime spectaculars at Walt Disney World!
I hope this information has been helpful, Melissa, and that you enjoy making many magical memories on your upcoming vacation! You've got a friend in us here at planDisney, so please stop by again if you have any other questions!
To Infinity and Beyond!
