Hi Lori! Thanks for visiting us at planDisney with your question. I can understand why you have your eye on a
Fantasmic! Dining Package. For someone who never misses seeing Mickey Mouse battling evil on the Rivers of America when I'm at Disneyland Resort, it's nice to know I have a special viewing spot waiting for me.
Unfortunately, I have some not-so-great news though, Lori. As of recently, there are no longer Fantasmic! Dining Packages being offered at Blue Bayou Restaurant. However, it's replacement is my very favorite dining location at Disneyland -
Cafe Orleans! You'll find the menu similar to the Blue Bayou (hello, Monte Cristo!) and, if you request a table outside on the patio at check-in, you'll enjoy a dreamy atmosphere with picturesque views of New Orleans Square and Rivers of America.
All you need to do is make a regular dining reservation for Cafe Orleans on
the Disneyland website or in the app and, upon arrival to the restaurant, let your host or server know you would like the Fantasmic! Premium Dining Package. You'll have your choice of either the first or second Fantasmic! performance that evening.
There are other
Fantasmic! Dining Package options, as well, if you'd prefer a different dining location. Any of them would be a lovely choice and have prime viewing of Fantasmic!. Advance reservations are highly recommended and can be made up to 60 days prior to your visit
on the Disneyland website. These non-Cafe Orleans Fantasmic! Dining Packages require a specific reservation for the dining package.
Did you know, Lori, that you're able to enjoy the
spectacular Disneyland fireworks from your Fantasmic! viewing spot too? If you attend the first showing of Fantasmic!, stay right where you are after the conclusion of the show, and you'll get a delightful encore, including projections across Rivers of America! Some imagination, huh?
Lori, I'm thrilled you'll be in the Happiest Place on Earth so soon cheering on our Sorcerer Mickey! In the meantime, if you have any other planning questions as you prepare for your upcoming visit, or if you'd like additional Fantasmic! viewing tips, I'm all ears - so please
stop by again!
Dream a fantastic dream,
McCayla
