Welcome to the Disney Parks Moms Panel, Kim!
It sounds like you already have a great start on planning your May visit! I am a planner too, and enjoy making all the pieces of the puzzle fall into place for the perfect itinerary for my family.
Kim, my understanding is that the list of participating restaurants for the 2020
Disney Dining Plans is not yet completely finalized. You'll notice that quite a few locations, especially those at
Epcot and
Disney Springs that are not Disney owned and operated, have not yet been updated with information about Disney Dining Plans for the coming year. This seems to happen every year, and I suspect that details and contracts are still in the process of being finalized. As we approach the end of 2019, we will continue to see additional restaurants added to the
list of 2020 Dining Plan participants.
Chefs de France has participated in the Disney Dining Plan for many years now, and I would expect this dining location to continue doing so. I would go ahead and make your reservation.
As far as dining events at Chefs de France, I took a look at the
My Disney Experience mobile app for various reservation times in May and did not notice any
dining events. Chefs de France will participate in the
Garden Rocks Concert Series Dining Package during the
Epcot International Flower & Garden Festival, however at this time those packages are not yet available to book. Chefs de France is described as "Special and Unique Dining". Dining in an authentic French brasserie during your Walt Disney World vacation is special indeed! If you would like to write us back with more information about the dining events you are referring to, we will be happy to help. Have a wonderful vacation!
