Dear Jacqueline,
Welcome to the Disney Parks Moms Panel! How exciting to hear you will be visiting the Walt Disney World resort for the first time! Thank you for letting us be a little part of this memorable life event!
Hollywood & Vine is a great dining location at Disney's Hollywood Studios. I have booked the
Fantasmic! Dining Package here several times and it's a great combination of delicious food and peace of mind knowing that you have secured a spot for this breathtaking show.
Each package includes one entrée, a dessert, and nonalcoholic beverage plus one voucher for guaranteed seating at Fantasmic! in a reserved area. Yes, you can pick up your seating voucher at your lunch reservation; your server will mention it at the start of your meal but will most likely bring it over with the check. Remember that the entrance for dining packages is located on Sunset Boulevard next to Beauty and the Beast – Live on Stage. Seating at Hollywood Hills Amphitheater begins 90 minutes prior to show time, so plan on arriving at least 25 minutes prior to show time in order to be seated in the reserved area. Showtimes can be found online or on the Times Guide at Disney’s Hollywood Studios.
Even though this rarely happens, it is better to know what to expect in case the show is canceled due to inclement weather. Please note that the dining experience will still take place; however, you will receive a guaranteed seating voucher to be used for an alternative performance within five days of the date you were originally scheduled to attend.
I hope you this answer helps a bit, Jacqueline. If you have any more questions regarding your first trip, please come see us again.
See you real soon!
