Walt Disney World Resort has quietly bumped up the price of one of Disney's Hollywood Studios' most popular dining packages. Unfortunately, the Central Florida Disney park gave families no advance notice of the cost increase, which went into effect on Wednesday.
What Changed at Hollywood & Vine
As of June 17, the lunch and dinner Fantasmic! dining package at Hollywood & Vine has been repriced. Adults will now pay $82, up from $81, while the children's price has climbed from $51 to $53. Both changes affect guests aged three and up and are reflected on Walt Disney World Resort‘s updated official webpage for the Hollywood & Vine character dining location.
The breakfast pricing for the same package — $67 for adults and $41 for children — remains unchanged.
The package itself includes a full buffet meal, a beverage including one alcoholic drink for guests 21 and older, and a voucher for reserved seating at Fantasmic! in the Hollywood Hills Amphitheater. The reserved section operates on a first-come, first-served basis within the dining package area, so guests who want the best sightlines are encouraged to arrive early. On evenings with multiple Fantasmic! performances, vouchers will indicate an assigned showtime.
Other Dining Packages Are Unaffected for Now
The price increase is specific to Hollywood & Vine at this time. The Fantasmic! dining packages available at 50's Prime Time Cafe, The Hollywood Brown Derby, and the Sci-Fi Dine-In Theater Restaurant have not seen any corresponding changes as of Wednesday.
Guests on the Disney Dining Plan can still redeem one Table-Service meal credit at Hollywood & Vine, the Sci-Fi Dine-In Theater Restaurant, or 50's Prime Time Cafe, or two Table-Service meal credits at The Hollywood Brown Derby, to cover the Fantasmic! dining package at those locations.
