Fantasmic Dessert Party cost when it returns

[chirurgeon]

Given the price was $60, approximately, two years ago, who thinks they will charge the same amount that they are charging for the WOC Dessert party when Fantasmic comes back?

It's hard to say. I think 2 big pieces of the value in the WOC dessert party will be missing (a chair and alcoholic beverages).

I am hoping they go to the WOC format for F!. I did the F! dessert party regularly and really like the WOC seating format over the rows of chairs.

Of course in DL they will not be able to do the adult beverages for a F! dessert party.

No Alcohol might lower the price, but three years ago, I had a seat for the dessert party.

The F! Dessert Party had chairs when we did it (no tables but there were chairs). No alcohol of course but there were definitely seats. I'm talking about the original F! Dessert Party which was very similar to the WoC one-much of the stuff in the dessert box was even the same or very similar to what you get now at WoC. I am not talking about the dessert buffet thing they did at Hungry Bear for a while. I believe that was just access to a designated/"preferred" viewing area but still sitting on the ground.

The tables and fact that the food is served on a plate is much nicer at WoC so I wouldn't be surprised if they go to something more like that (and raise the price).

I did the dessert party when they had chairs. But I think they stopped that to squeeze in more bodies when they moved to fastpass viewing areas. Plus, just a chair didn't put it in the same league as the nice table and chairs at WOC. I really didn't enjoy balancing a box of desserts and a soda sitting on just a chair.

Chairs aren't as much of a concern for me since I will be in an ECV.

Are they going to bring this back, or are they going to do the Blue Bayou Meal packages? (Started in 2014)

If you mean the dessert option at Hungry Bear, they discontinued that about 2 1/2 months into the reserved seating. It was another 10 months or so before F! went down. I don't think there's any reason to assume it will come back. Unless PTN comes back or they start offering a dining package for fireworks and keep BB for those, then maybe they'd need another "premium" option.

I'm thinking they also offered a Fantasmic package through Cafe Orleans. It will be interesting to see where they go with this. The dessert seating for WOC has been very popular, but I just don't think they have room to replicate that for Fantasmic.

Did they? I don't remember that it was at CO, but I know that we did F! packages at RBT and at BB.

That was it! It was River Belle Terrace. I remember sitting outside, but that was a couple trips ago.
