Hi, Eric!
Thanks for reaching out to the Disney Parks Moms Panel!
From my experience with the
Fantasmic! Dining Package, you will not see any difference in the dining options in your menu from visiting any other time. But you will get access to VIP seating for the Fantasmic! show.
My family has used the dining package as an easy way to access the show without waiting in a line. I would recommend not getting there too early because sitting up close can lead to getting a little damp from the show. If you are concerned about the water spray, I'd recommend bringing ponchos just in case. They're helpful for any time it might rain during a visit to Walt Disney World Resort. (Weather in Orlando can be a little spotty!)
I've also found it's worth bringing a blanket to Fanstasmic! if you're visiting around the holidays. Sometimes the night hours can be a bit crisp! The Fanstasmic! show is really wonderful. You don't want to feel cold or wet during a really fun entertainment experience!
Have a magical time. Let me know if you have any additional questions. I'm happy to help!
