    hello, when making a dining reservation at one of the parks do I need to purchase a park ticket to get in? what if I am only interested in the dining? thank you

    Hello, Natali!

    Thanks for asking a great question! The Walt Disney World Resort offers many amazing dining experiences, both inside and outside of the theme parks. 

    If you are planning to dine at a restaurant inside a theme park, you will need a valid park ticket for admittance, even if you only plan to have dinner. You might want to consider adding the Park Hopper option to your theme park tickets so you can have more flexibility with your dining experiences. For example, you can begin your day at Magic Kingdom then head over to Epcot to dine at La Hacienda de San Angel before viewing IllumiNations.  

    Another option is to dine at one of the many Resort hotel restaurants. My family loves dining at California Grill at Disney's Contemporary Resort or Narcoossee's at Disney's Grand Floridian Resort & Spa. Be sure to leave room for dessert because there are some delicious treats available.

    Please let me know if you have further questions or would like more restaurant suggestions! I'm here to help!

    Have a magical day!
