Hello Scott! Welcome to the Disney Parks Moms Panel.
Having early morning
Advanced Dining Reservations at a Dining Location inside of a Theme Park is one of my favorite ways to start a day at Walt Disney World Resort.
With the
Let the Magic Begin Welcome Show at Magic Kingdom, Guests now are granted access to Main Street, U.S.A. all the way up to Cinderella Castle between 25-45 minutes before Magic Kingdom is scheduled to open. This will allow you and your family to enter the Theme Park do a little early shopping at the
Emporium on Main Street, U.S.A., grab a Coffee at
Main Street Bakery and even take in the quick Welcome Show before making your way to
Cinderella's Royal Table in Fantasyland for your Advanced Dining Reservations with time to spare.
If you get there early enough, you may even Check-In with a Cast Member near the path to Fantasyland who may grant you access to the area for your
Advanced Dining Reservations before the Let the Magic Begin Welcome Show, Rope Drop and initial rush of Guests fill it up.
Granting access to Fantasyland before Rope Drop for 9:15am Advanced Dining Reservations will be at the discretion of the Cast Member.
Bon Appétit!
