    Do you have any information about the Grand Gathering? What's offered and are reservations necessary. Thanks.

    Hi, Marjorie! According to the Walt Disney World website, "travel parties with at least 8 Guests over the age of 3 staying at a Walt Disney World Resort hotel may purchase a Walt Disney World Magical Gatherings vacation package. A Magical Gatherings planning specialist will help you coordinate accommodations, as well as make your reservations for dining, recreation and special experiences. You may also choose Grand Gatherings, unique dining and entertainment experiences that can be booked up to 180 days in advance. For more information, call (407) 934-7639. Guests under age 18 must have parent or guardian permission to call."

     

    Reservations for these Magical Gathering experiences are a MUST.  Book them as close to the 180-day window as possible.  Reservations cannot be made inside the 72-hour mark. The last time I checked, there were three Grand Gathering Dining experiences available: International Dinner and IllumiNations Dessert Reception at Epcot, Safari Celebration Dinner at Animal Kingdom, and the Good Morning Character Breakfast at the Magic Kingdom.  You should call the Cast Members at the number above.  they will be happy to give you more information. I hope this helps.  Happy planning!
