Fantasmic! Dining Package in Disneyland — A Complete Guide | the disney food blog (2024)

By Kim LaPaglia 1 Comment

When a fire broke out at Disneyland’s Fantasmic! in April 2023, we were sad to see the show go on hiatus.

Thankfully, the show will return in spring 2024 and we can’t wait to book the Fantasmic! Dining Package.

When the show returns, it will NOT include the Maleficent dragon figure, but Disney says we can expect a new battle scene between Mickey and Maleficent, including updated special effects.

As we anticipate the reopening, let’s dig into the Fantasmic! Dining Package options.

What is a Fantasmic! Dining Package?

Dining Packages offer a meal at participating restaurants in Disneyland with a great reserved viewing spot for a showing of the nighttime spectacular!

Participating Restaurants

• Blue Bayou
• River Belle Terrace

Blue Bayou

The Fantasmic! Dining Package at Blue Bayou is available for lunch (starting at 11AM) or dinner (starting at 4PM).

Along with a delicious meal, you’ll receive a voucher admitting you to a separate reserved viewing location for Fantasmic! that evening.

Menu choices include Hearts of Palm Escabèche, Roasted Mushroom Ragu Pasta, Monte Cristo Sandwich & Seasonal Salad, Prime Rib, a specialty nonalcoholic drink, and a Fantasmic! specialty dessert.

To book the Blue Bayou Fantasmic! Dining Package

• Use the Check Availability feature to reserve in advance online and experience one of the 2 Fantasmic! performances that evening.

Standard Package

Available for lunch (starting at 11AM) or dinner (starting at 4PM) and receive a voucher admitting you to a separate reserved viewing location for Fantasmic! that evening.

You can choose from the regular menu or from special items offered only to Fantasmic! Dining Package Guests.

Package Pricing

• Dinner: $50 per adult; $30 per child (ages 3 to 9), tax and gratuity not included.

Book dining packages through the Disneyland app or by calling (714) 781-DINE (3463).

The Fantasmic! Dining Package is for guests who want to see the show but don’t want to have to get there super early to find a seat. If you were already planning on eating at one of these restaurants, the dining package is a nice (although expensive) add-on option for your trip. If you have limited time to tour Disneyland, booking a dining package will help your tight touring schedule.

However, if Fantasmic! isn’t must-see entertainment for you, the restaurants don’t appeal to you, or you are on a strict budget, then Fantasmic! Dining Packages are probably not for you.

If you decide to book a package, remember to reserve early!
