Hey Lauren!
Welcome back to planDisney! We've missed you but are glad you are thinking about your upcoming August trip to Walt Disney World Resort! I hope you are excited and ready for some fun.
Theme Park Reservations are still needed for all Park visits until January 8, 2024. Now, until then you can make a Theme Park Reservation at any point after purchasing a ticket or with your
Annual Pass. You can
modify your existing Theme Park Reservation through your My Disney Experience account until almost the day of your visit if there is availability.
Since you are looking at a visit in August, I'm sure you are thinking about enjoying the
EPCOT International Food & Wine Festival! Now, while I love eating at the
Global Marketplaces I find a ton of joy in being in sweet sweet air-conditioning. One of the best parts of this festival in my humble opinion is to enjoy the
Eat to the Beat Concert Series. I highly recommend purchasing an
Eat to the Beat Dining Package which will guarantee you a great seat for the show and secure a delicious meal at a great EPCOT restaurant.
I hope this helps and feel free to come back again with any more questions!
Happy Planning!
