Hi Jennifer! We're so happy to have you visiting planDisney again!
Walt Disney World Resort always has the ability to make Guests feel special but celebrating a birthday while visiting adds an
extra dose of pixie dust. If you're staying at a Disney Resorts Collection hotel stop by the front desk for a "Happy Birthday" button for your son! You can also pick up a button at any Guest Relations desk. The birthday boy can wear his button throughout your trip so that everyone knows he's celebrating!
While I know you have your heart set on a special drum serenade at
Boma - Flavors of Africa, at the moment not all musicians are currently performing because of COVID protocols and social distancing measures. Since it sounds like you've enjoyed the restaurant previously, I hope you're still able to celebrate with a delicious meal! If you still want to keep this birthday dinner as part of your plans, make sure to check with the host at the podium when you arrive, just in case the musician Cast Members have returned in time for your celebration!
Please pass on an early "Happy Birthday" to your son from all of us here at planDisney, and come visit us again soon!
