Hello, Heather!
Thank you for contacting planDisney. I am glad you sent another question to us! I am a huge fan of
Fantasmic! Dining Packages because my family can enjoy a delicious meal and access a reserved viewing area for my favorite nighttime spectacular. It is the perfect combination!
Fantasmic! Dining Packages currently include a few restaurants, including
River Belle Terrace. River Belle Terrace has two options - Standard Package and Premium Package. With the Standard Package, Guests can dig into a 3-course Southern-style meal for brunch or dinner and receive a voucher that lets them watch one of the
Fantasmic! performances from a reserved viewing area later that night.
The voucher will tell you when to arrive at the reserved viewing area, usually around 30-45 minutes before Fantasmic! starts in my experience. I usually arrive at least an hour early to get in line because I like sitting in the front row. Every time I have purchased a Fantasmic! Dining Package in the past couple of years, Guests have been asked to remain seated on the ground for the duration of the performance. I recommend bringing a small cushion or blanket to sit on.
The Premium Package at River Belle Terrace is a little different, as Guests enjoy their 3-course meal and catch the first Fantasmic! performance of the evening, all from their table on the outdoor terrace. It is a little further away, and some views may be slightly obstructed, but many Guests prefer this option because they can sit in a chair for the show.
Reservations can be made on the
Fantasmic! Dining Package page up to 60 days in advance. Select "Check Availability" to see what options are available for your visit. Fantasmic! Dining Packages are very popular, and since it is less than 60 days from your trip, it can be difficult to find availability. I recommend checking the website multiple times a day, as Guests often cancel their reservations as it gets closer to their arrival date. Fortunately, it looks like the dates and times for the February performances of Fantasmic! have not been released yet, which means Dining Packages are most likely not yet available. Just keep checking the website!
Heather, I hope you have a joy-filled trip to Disneyland Resort! Please reach out to planDisney again if you have other questions!
Magic Happens!
