We are shooting for 9-22!

ME TOO! It's my husband's only request for our week at Disney! I do not want to miss it! I'm ready for it to open so I can stop checking and relax!

I just checked for 9/1. Nothing yet.

 

[Blessedwith3boys]

Maybe after lunch!

 

[dycdave]

Checked at 2 pm...still nothing...

So, when I search the dessert party online for August as practice (lol) for making October ADRs, there isn't a single table for 5 that comes up but tables for 6 are pretty abundant. Do they offer very few tables for 5? Will calling when the dates open up typically yield more positive results? Is it smart to book 6 then call later to cancel a person? Thanks!

Any use in checking tomorrow?

I say " ABSOLUTELY" ! Who knows when it will happen! One month it happened on the 11th!

Oh my! We will be booking for 5 also....does anyone know this answer!

Also curious, we're a group of five.

I'm in the UK and the page for the Dessert Party won't even load!!! (As in ever, not just tonight) so I can't even check online. Guess I'll have to phone when the time comes!

If this were the case, book the 6, with one being an infant under 3. Then wait 10 minutes and cancel one person (the under 3). That way you are adjusting table/chairs available and you aren't paying for something upfront you know you won't be using.

Can anyone help me with the maximum # a party can be?

Great idea! Never would have thought of it.

I'm hoping to get ressie for 2 for an October 11-18 date! Subscribing.

 

[Blessedwith3boys]

Come on Disney....open those September days !

The entire party on any given night holds approximately 160 guests.

When booking I believe you can reserve up to a party of 50 guests.

Unfortunately, you will probably need to get used to saying this for awhile!! But, when it opens up, you will feel like you won the lottery!!!!
