EPCOT visitors have a new way to combine dinner with one of the biggest moments of the night, but the experience comes with a premium price.
Reservations are now available for the Shiki-Sai Fireworks Dining Package at Shiki-Sai: Sushi Izakaya in EPCOT's Japan Pavilion. The first available dates begin October 2, 2026, giving guests visiting Walt Disney World this fall another option for watching Luminous: The Symphony of Us.
Rather than eating dinner and then finding a separate viewing location around World Showcase Lagoon, guests can make the nighttime spectacular part of their dining experience.
For anyone interested, however, there's plenty to consider before making that reservation.
A New Way to Watch Luminous at EPCOT
Shiki-Sai: Sushi Izakaya sits inside EPCOT's Japan Pavilion and specializes in Japanese cuisine. Its new dining package takes the restaurant's existing experience and pairs it with Luminous.
Guests with the package receive an 8 p.m. seating.
That timing makes the experience particularly useful for visitors who want to make dinner the final major part of their EPCOT day.
Instead of spending the evening watching the clock and deciding when to find a fireworks location, guests can head to Shiki-Sai for their reservation and settle in for the night.
The meal includes an appetizer, traditional sashimi, and a large sushi selection. Disney is also including an exclusive dessert and beverages specifically offered with the fireworks package.
For sushi fans, that could make the experience more appealing than purchasing a package primarily for its fireworks component.
Expect to Pay a Premium Price
Convenience and exclusivity don't come cheaply in this case.
The package costs $120 per adult before tax and gratuity. After those additional costs, the adult price reaches $149.50.
Children cost $60 before tax and gratuity, or $74.70 with those charges included.
A family with two adults and two children would therefore spend $448.40.
That's enough to make this an experience guests will probably want to consider carefully before booking.
There are plenty of places around World Showcase Lagoon where guests can watch Luminous without purchasing an additional package. Visitors are essentially paying for the combination of dinner, the package-exclusive offerings, and the ability to build their fireworks plans around the restaurant experience.
For some families, nearly $450 will simply be too much. For others, particularly those already interested in eating at Shiki-Sai, combining dinner and fireworks could make the price easier to justify.
Don't Count on a Same-Day Reservation
Guests who decide they want the package may want to reserve it before arriving at EPCOT.
Advance reservations are highly recommended.
Same-day reservations can be offered, but those will be limited and depend on availability. Waiting until the day of an EPCOT visit could therefore be a gamble, especially if the package becomes popular.
There's another important restriction to remember.
Disney Dining Plans cannot be used toward the Shiki-Sai Fireworks Dining Package. Guests using a dining plan elsewhere during their Walt Disney World vacation will need to pay separately for this experience.
Reservations Are Open Now
The addition gives EPCOT visitors another premium option for planning their nighttime entertainment.
It certainly isn't necessary for seeing Luminous. Guests can continue watching the spectacular from public areas surrounding World Showcase Lagoon without buying a special dining package.
Instead, Shiki-Sai is offering something for visitors who want to turn dinner and fireworks into one experience.
With the first reservations available beginning October 2, guests planning fall Walt Disney World vacations can now decide whether the convenience — and all that sushi — is worth the nearly $150 adult price.
