Hiya Jen,
Welcome to planDisney! Thank you for submitting your question to us.
Dining packages are a great way for Guests to secure both a delicious meal and prime viewing of the entertainment offered at the parks, whereas dining reservations only secure a time for a table service meal. Guests who reserve a dining package will need a valid
theme park ticket and
park reservation or
Magic Key reservation for in-park dining.
The
Fantasmic! Dining Package grants Guests a lovely dining experience at select restaurants, as well as prime viewing of
Fantasmic! in a separate area. I’m sorry to inform you that you must have selected the dining package to have access to the reserved viewing area, not just dining reservations for
River Belle Terrace. If the dining package is not available for this restaurant, I encourage you to review the Fantasmic! Dining Package for possible availability at
Blue Bayou Restaurant or
Rancho del Zocalo Restaurante! With
a little faith and trust (and pixie dust), you’ll be able to reserve the Fantasmic! Dining Package at one of these restaurants! Then all that’s left is to count down the days until you visit the
Happiest Place on Earth!
If you have other questions about the Disneyland Resort, remember - you’ve got a friend in me!
