Hiya Kim,
Welcome back to planDisney, and a very Boo to You! I’m excited to be answering your question today about one of my favorite
Enchanting Extras, fireworks dessert parties.
As you mentioned, check-in for
Disney’s Not-So-Spooky Spectacular Dessert Party at Tomorrowland Terrace begins one hour before the show starts, and once you check in, you can enjoy all of the refreshments and yummy treats you would like! After the fireworks wrap up, the Cast Members start cleaning up the area, in my experience, to get everything ready for the evening. Although you will not be able to enjoy any more snacks or drinks, you don’t have to rush out of the area. I like to hang back a little bit after the fireworks end to let some of the crowd disperse before I head for the exit with my little Mouseketeers. There isn’t a specific cutoff time for this, but I typically don’t hang out more than 10-15 minutes afterwards.
I hope this was helpful, Kim. Before I let you go, I did want to share one last thing. The line to check in for the dessert party can sometimes get long, especially right at the one-hour check-in time. If you want to get a great spot (or want more time to enjoy desserts), then I recommend heading towards Tomorrowland Terrace a little before the hour mark. That way, as soon as they start checking in people, you can be one of the first Guests. Please come back and see us if you need anything.
Happy Planning,
Ashley F.
