Evening dining at MK without a MNSSHP ticket??

[Hollywoodsign]

Hello!
We land from the UK on a Thursday evening. Our tradition is to always do a water park on our first full day, then a signature meal and fireworks in the evening.
We had planned on going to BOG and then watch the MK fireworks - perfect start to the trip!
However, MNSSHP has now been scheduled for our first full day!
We really wanted to dine at BOG. Could we perhaps make a dinner reservation at say 6.50 and still be able to enter the park on a standard ticket?
I understand we would not be able to stay in the park after our meal without a MNSSHP wristband.

Or plan B was to maybe try Space 220 and watch EPCOT'S fireworks?

Any other first day 'date night' ideas would be appreciated.

Thanks

They cut off reservations earlier on the MNSSHP nights. You will not be able to make a 6:50 pm reservation as the park officially closes at 6:00 pm on those nights. The latest you will be able to get will be reservations before 6:00 pm. You might be able to get 5:30ish pm but bear in mind you will likely be escorted from BOG to the park exit when you finish eating. You definitely will not be able to hang around until fireworks.

Maybe consider getting party tickets? It’s a great party. I would still advise against doing dinner during the party though since you’d be wasting valuable party time.

What about Spice Road Table Fireworks dining package at Epcot, or for MK, CG Celebration at the Top or just a regular dining reservation at CG? Book 1 1/2-2 hours before fireworks time.

we have done BoG several times on nights with MNSSHP. We always get as late of an ADR as we can. With the park closing at 6, 5:30 to 5:45 is probably as late as you can get.
