Planning to book one of Disney’s most popular dining packages? It’ll cost you a little more now.
Walt Disney World has quietly increased pricing for one of the most popular ways to experience Fantasmic! at Disney’s Hollywood Studios. Guests looking to enjoy a character meal at Hollywood & Vine before heading to reserved seating for the nighttime spectacular will now notice slightly higher prices when booking the Fantasmic! Dining Package.
While the increase isn’t massive, it’s another example of Disney adjusting dining prices across the resort, and if you’re planning a Disney vacation, every dollar can add up.
Disney has increased the cost of the Hollywood & Vine Fantasmic! Dining Package for both lunch and dinner at Disney’s Hollywood Studios.
The new pricing is:
- Adults (ages 10 and up): $82 (previously $81)
- Children (ages 3–9): $53 (previously $51)
The updated pricing is now reflected on Walt Disney World’s booking system.
Breakfast Pricing Remains the Same
If you’re planning on booking the breakfast version of the dining package, there is some good news. Disney has not increased breakfast pricing at Hollywood & Vine.
Current breakfast pricing remains:
- Adults: $67
- Children (ages 3–9): $42
Only the lunch and dinner Fantasmic! Dining Packages have received the latest price adjustment.
If you’re on the Disney Dining Plan, the package is as follows:
- 1 Table-Service meal credit per person at 50’s Prime Time Cafe, Hollywood & Vine, and Sci-Fi Dine-In Theater Restaurant
- 2 Table-Service meal credits per person at The Hollywood Brown Derby
What’s Included in the Fantasmic! Dining Package?
The Fantasmic! Dining Package remains one of the easiest ways to secure reserved seating for Disney’s popular nighttime spectacular.
When booking the package at Hollywood & Vine, guests receive:
- A full buffet meal at Hollywood & Vine
- A non-alcoholic beverage (or an alcoholic beverage for guests 21 and older)
- One voucher for reserved seating in the designated Fantasmic! viewing section
Rather than waiting in the standby queue for the show, guests can enter through the reserved seating entrance on Sunset Boulevard and enjoy a dedicated viewing area.
While seating is reserved by section (not by individual seat), it can offer valuable peace of mind during busier travel seasons.
Hollywood & Vine Continues To Be a Popular Choice
Hollywood & Vine remains one of Disney’s most popular Fantasmic! Dining Package options, especially for families.
The restaurant features Minnie Mouse and friends during seasonal character dining experiences at breakfast, lunch, and dinner, making it one of the few opportunities to combine a character meal with guaranteed seating for Fantasmic!
Because of that combination, reservations can disappear quickly during holidays, school breaks, and peak vacation periods.
Other Fantasmic! Dining Package Restaurants Stay the Same
At the time of this update, Disney has not changed pricing for the other participating Fantasmic! Dining Package restaurants.
Current pricing remains:
50’s Prime Time Café
- Adults: $60
- Children: $23
Sci-Fi Dine-In Theater Restaurant
- Adults: $59
- Children: $23
The Hollywood Brown Derby
- Adults: $83
- Children: $31
Only Hollywood & Vine’s lunch and dinner package has received a price increase in Disney’s latest update.
Is the Fantasmic! Dining Package Still Worth It?
For many guests, the answer is still yes.
Fantasmic! remains one of the most popular nighttime shows at Walt Disney World, particularly during busy travel seasons when standby seating fills quickly. The dining package allows guests to enjoy a full table-service meal before heading to a dedicated viewing area, eliminating some of the stress of arriving extremely early for the show.
While this latest increase is relatively small (just $1 more for adults and $2 more for children), families budgeting every aspect of their Disney vacation may want to factor the updated pricing into their plans. As always, Disney dining prices remain subject to change throughout the year.
We’ll continue monitoring Walt Disney World restaurant menus, dining packages, ticket prices, and vacation planning updates as Disney announces more changes.
