Hi, Nadia! Welcome to planDisney!
Dining with the
Disney Princesses at
Cinderella's Royal Table is certain to add some extra magic to any
Walt Disney World Resort visit! This
character dining experience is extremely popular and reservations can be difficult to secure even 60 days in advance. However, I think I might have some insight as to why you weren't seeing availability later in the evening on your desired date in December.
On select evenings throughout the holiday season,
Magic Kingdom Park closes early for
Mickey's Very Merry Christmas Party. This special event is taking place on December 10, 2023, so that is likely why you were not seeing much availability at Cinderella's Royal Table during later hours on that particular date. As this is a highly coveted dining reservation, I recommend booking any available time that might work for you. While there's no guarantee that later times will open up, you can always try to modify your reservation to a later time as it gets closer to your trip.
Cinderella's Royal Table will be open during Mickey's Very Merry Christmas Party for Guests who have
party tickets. If you will be attending this special event and wish to book a Cinderella's Royal Table reservation during the party hours, you can find information on how to do so on this
Mickey's Very Merry Christmas Party Dining page.
Nadia, feel free to
stop by planDisney again if you have any additional questions. I hope that you will be able to experience dining in Cinderella Castle and that all the dreams that you wish will come true! Have a magical day!
Samantha
