Not to hijack your thread but could someone give me some details about this? How do you book it? Is there is certain price for it or just the price of your dinner? And we're going next week, is it too late to book? Thanks!
It might be booked up but call right away and find out. Below is some infor for you:
What is the Fantasmic! Dinner Package?
The Fantasmic! Dinner Package includes dinner at one of the participating Disney-MGM Studios restaurants and reserved seating in the Fantasmic! amphitheater. As of this writing, only Brown Derby, Mama Melrose, and Hollywood & Vine are participating.
This means that instead of waiting in line for 60-90 minutes outside the theater, you can walk right up to the theater 30-45 minutes before show time, (no waiting in line!) and still have a seat.
Is there a charge for the package?
There is no additional charge for the package itself. However, the package, which includes a fixed price dinner and the Fantasmic! seating pass, MUST be guaranteed at the time of booking with a credit card, and a $10 cancellation fee applies if not cancelled at least 48 hours beforehand.
Prices for the fixed price dinners are as follows:
Brown Derby $36.99 adult/$10.99 child (3-9 ) not including admission, tax, and gratuity. Your choice of appetizer, soup, or salad; entree; and dessert from menu. Items include Spice Grilled Filet Mignon, Pan-Seared Grouper, and The Original Cobb Salad. Adult beverages NOT included. Child's meal includes beverage.
Mama Melrose $28.99 adult/$10.99 child (3-9) not including admission, tax, and gratuity. Your choice of one wood-fired flatbread to share from Mama's rustic on-stage kitchen, as well as family style salad, and choice of entree. Dessert: Mama's signature Fantasmic! Tiramisu. Adult beverages NOT included. Child's meal includes beverage.
Hollywood & Vine $22.99 adult/$10.99 child (3-9) not including admission, tax, and gratuity (no characters). All you care to eat buffet. Choose from a number of selections including; oven-roasted Prime Rib, Citrus Baked Chicken, Pan-seared Salmon, and Stir-Fry Noodles with Sesame. Also includes fresh salads and build your own ice cream/dessert bar. Adult beverages NOT included. Child's meal includes beverage.
All packages include a special pass for seating at that night's Fantasmic! and dinner at the restaurant chosen.
Report to your restaurant 10 minutes before your Fantasmic! Dinner Package PS, and you'll receive your special Fantasmic! seating pass at that time. Theme park admission is NOT included.
Can I Use the Magic Your Way Dining Plan with the Fantasmic Dinner Package?
Yes, as of September 2, 2005, the Magic Your Way Dining Plan can be used to purchase a Fantasmic Dinner Package. You can also get the Fantasmic Dinner Package if you have the Magic Your Way Premium Package or, starting in 2006, the Platinum Package.
Do I have a reserved seat?
No, only the section itself is reserved for those with the dinner package. Within the reserved section, seating is on a first come-first served basis, so if you want your choice of seats, you should arrive early.
How do I book the Fantasmic! Dinner Package?
You can book the package now for dates 90 days in advance by calling 1-407-WDW-DINE.
What if I have already made reservations in advance at one of those restaurants for dinner?
That Advance Reservation is distinct from the Fantasmic! Dinner Package. If you want the Fantasmic! Dinner Package you need to book it specifically.
Where is the reserved section?
The reserved section is all the way over on the right side of the theater - the Witch section. The amphitheater is set up so that there really are no *bad* seats, except you will get wet if you sit in the first few rows.
Where do I enter the theater?
Do NOT enter the Fantasmic! line that starts at the amphitheater's Sunset Boulevard entrance.
Present your Fantasmic! Dinner Package voucher 30 minutes prior to showtime at the Fantasmic! sign located on Hollywood Boulevard next to Oscar's Super Service (inside the turnstiles at the front of the park). Guests arriving less than 30 minutes prior to showtime will be offered standing room only, if available.
How early do I have to get to the theater?
You must arrive at least 30 minutes before the show starts. There are enough packages available that the Reserved section gets fairly filled up, so if you want a better seat selection within the reserved section, plan to arrive more than 30 minutes before show time. Even though you still need to arrive early, you do NOT have to wait in line like those without reserved seating - you can just walk straight to the reserved section and sit down.
What if that night's show is cancelled?
According to the policies of the Fantasmic! Dinner Package, if the show is cancelled because of weather your pass is invalid, and you will NOT be issued a new one.
