At the top of Disney’s Contemporary Resort, Guests dining at California Grill can enjoy a limited-time three course menu with entrees inspired by favorite dishes from the history of the resort plus new specialty items. California Grill is one of the most popular restaurants at the Walt Disney World Resort, and as always advanced reservations are strongly encouraged.
Guests at Disney’s Contemporary Resort can also find prime viewing locations for Disney’s Electrical Water Pageant, which has been recently enhanced with a new float just for the occasion. In addition to the classic lighted floats Guests have enjoyed for years, the pageant now includes a castle design with the 50th anniversary original song “The Magic is Calling.”
As with all Walt Disney World resorts, Guests can also find new refillable mugs featuring the Beacons of Magic, as well as EARidescent wraps on monorails and buses.
