Hi Kimberly,
Things appear to be coming together rapidly at the new Planet Hollywood Observatory. My family was at
Disney Springs yesterday, and we could see considerable progress on the refurbishment just since we were there earlier this month.
No opening date has been announced, as far as I know. The restaurant's Facebook page is still saying opening is some time this fall.
Here's what I have seen: The restaurant has started taking reservations on Open Table, beginning December 1, and the
Disney Parks Blog had a sneak preview of two signature cocktails in the restaurant's Stargazer Lounge last week.
So those are both signs that the opening seems to be right around the corner.
Thanks, Kimberly, for stopping by the Disney Parks Moms Panel with your question. Please let us know if we can help in any other way as you make plans for your next trip to
Walt Disney World.
Enjoy!
Wilma
