Hiya, Diane! We are so happy you found your way to our corner of the magic here at planDisney. You've found my favorite spot for magical dining in all of the Disneyland Resort.
Blue Bayou Restaurant is nestled into a quiet corner of New Orleans square. Wave to your fellow Guests as they sail away on their Pirates of the Caribbean adventure while dining on New Orleans-inspired cuisine under an eternally twinkling night sky. That's some Disney magic right there!
The
Fantasmic! Dining Package is a wonderful way to not only experience Blue Bayou but also walk away with a voucher to a prime viewing spot for Fantasmic! that evening. It's a win-win, in my Disneyland book! The Fantasmic! Dining Package can be booked in advance online by booking Blue Bayou through the dining package page on the website. These reservations do go quickly, so if you have your heart set on it, I would try to book when reservations open. These typically open 60 days ahead of time. If there is no availability and you have secured a regular reservation for lunch or dinner at Blue Bayou, you can still request the Fantasmic! Dining Package from your server upon arrival. The day-of packages are limited and subject to availability, so if you can book the dining package online in advance, that is recommended.
While you are exploring
New Orleans Square, I highly recommend browsing through the newly opened
Eudora's Chic Boutique Featuring Tiana's Gourmet Secrets. You might just find out how Tiana makes that mouth-watering gumbo and, of course, those beignets! While you're looking around, I hope you've saved a little room for something sweet! Mobile Order some Mickey Beignets directly from
The Mint Julep Bar. Pick them up as you head out to watch Fantasmic! and give that bag a few shakes to make sure the powder sugar coats each and every one!
Diane, I'm sending you some pixie-dust wishes that you get to experience the Fantasmic! Dining Package! I recommend getting to your viewing area about 45 minutes ahead of show time to secure your spot within the space, especially if you're hoping for a view right up front!
If you have any more questions, please come back to see us here at

Magic awaits!
