Hollywood & Vine Fantasmic Dining Package Price Hike

Disney just raised prices again on the Fantasmic! Dining Package at Hollywood & Vine, and if you were planning to book this combo for your next Disney’s Hollywood Studios trip, you’ll want the updated numbers before you call to reserve.

The increase is small this time around, but it’s still worth knowing exactly what changed, what the package includes, and how the other three participating restaurants compare on price.

Quick Summary

• Hollywood & Vine lunch and dinner Fantasmic! Dining Package prices have increased
• Adults now pay $82, up from $81; kids 9 and under now pay $53, up from $51
• Breakfast pricing at Hollywood & Vine is unchanged
• Four restaurants participate in the Fantasmic! Dining Package, with prices ranging from $59 to $83 for adults
• The package includes a meal plus a guaranteed seating voucher for Fantasmic!
• Seating opens 90 minutes before the show, and arriving 25 minutes early secures a spot in the reserved section

What the Fantasmic! Dining Package Includes

The Fantasmic! Dining Package lets you combine a sit-down meal at a participating Hollywood Studios restaurant with guaranteed reserved seating at the Fantasmic! nighttime spectacular. It’s one of the best ways to secure a good spot for the show without lining up early.

Every Fantasmic! Dining Package covers:

• An entrée and dessert at select full-service restaurants, or a full buffet where available
• A nonalcoholic beverage (guests 21 and older can substitute an alcoholic beverage)
• One voucher for reserved seating at Fantasmic! in a dedicated section on Sunset Boulevard

You pick up your seating voucher at the restaurant during your meal. Seats within the reserved section are first-come, first-served, so arriving early still gets you better placement.

Updated Fantasmic! Dining Package Pricing

Hollywood & Vine lunch and dinner prices have increased. Adults now pay $82, up from $81. Kids aged 9 and under now pay $53, up from $51. Breakfast pricing at Hollywood & Vine is unchanged.

Here’s the full breakdown across all four participating restaurants. Prices exclude tax and gratuity.

• 50’s Prime Time Cafe — Adults $60 / Kids $23
• Hollywood & Vine (Breakfast) — Adults $67 / Kids $42
• Hollywood & Vine (Lunch & Dinner) — Adults $82 / Kids $53
• Sci-Fi Dine-In Theater Restaurant — Adults $59 / Kids $23
• The Hollywood Brown Derby — Adults $83 / Kids $31

Park admission is not included in any package price. The Hollywood Brown Derby remains the most expensive option for adults, while Sci-Fi Dine-In Theater Restaurant stays the cheapest entry point into the package.

Using the Disney Dining Plan

If you’re on the Disney Dining Plan, the package is redeemable 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

Check-In and Seating Tips

The reserved seating entrance is on Sunset Boulevard, next to Beauty & The Beast Live on Stage. Seating opens 90 minutes before the Fantasmic! show. Arrive at least 25 minutes before showtime to secure your spot in the reserved section.

Your dining reservation still stands even if the Fantasmic! show is cancelled, so you won’t lose your meal plans over weather. Advance reservations are strongly recommended, and a no-show or late cancellation will result in a per-person charge to the credit card on file.

Is the Fantasmic! Dining Package Still Worth It?

Even with the small price bump at Hollywood & Vine, this package remains one of the more reliable ways to guarantee a seat at Fantasmic! without showing up an hour or more early. If you already planned to eat at one of these four restaurants during your Hollywood Studios day, pairing it with guaranteed seating is close to a no-brainer.

How Fantasmic! Pricing Has Trended

Dining package price increases at Disney’s Hollywood Studios have become a near-annual occurrence, and Hollywood & Vine in particular has seen steady upward movement over the past several years as demand for guaranteed Fantasmic! seating has grown. A dollar or two here and there might not sound like much, but it adds up for families booking multiple nights or larger parties.

If you’re booking for a big group, run the math across all four restaurants before deciding. The price difference between Sci-Fi Dine-In at $59 and The Hollywood Brown Derby at $83 per adult can add up to well over $100 for a family of four, even before tax and gratuity.

Alternatives if Prices Feel Too High

If the dining package price increase pushes this out of your budget, you can still see Fantasmic! with standard park admission and no meal attached. Just plan to arrive well before showtime, since general seating fills up fast for popular performances, especially on weekends and during peak season.

Final Thoughts on the Fantasmic! Dining Package Price Increase

This price increase at Hollywood & Vine is modest, just a dollar or two more per person, but it’s worth budgeting for if you’re planning a Fantasmic! Dining Package around your next visit. Compare all four restaurants against your group’s appetite and budget before booking.

I’m no stranger to Disney planning, as a Disneyland magic key holder and DVC member. I’m the person people ask for trip planning advice. But I had never been on a Disney cruise, and had heard great about Nate and decided to reach out. I’m so glad I did because we could not have been happier with our experience. His tips and insights were incredibly helpful, and he was incredibly responsive any time we had a question. Who do the Disney experts turn to when they need help? Nate, that’s who.

We’ll definitely be using him again.

Our experience working with Nate as our Disney vacation planner was exceptional. He was responsive and thorough. He gave us insights that made the trip go much more smoothly. We were able to really relax and focus on quality time as a family and have so much fun doing it! I will definitely reach out for any future trips.

Could not have wanted or expected more from Nate, our Distrips and More agent as we planned our 2025 Disney World trip. Nate was VERY responsive to emails and texts and more than willing to do whatever he could to guide us and answer our questions.  On several occasions I emailed him over the weekend not expecting a response until Monday but each time he responded before the weekend was over.  He even participated in a Zoom session with our group of five seniors as we planned our trip. He also helped us at the 11th hour when we added a family member to our travel group less than a month before our trip.  Without a doubt, I will reach out to Nate when I'm ready to plan my next trip to Disney World!

We are so thankful we used Nate to plan not only our first Disney trip, but also our second. He made the process so easy for us, especially for us since it was our first time going. There was a lot to consider and many decisions to make, such as where to stay, when to go, and what to experience. Nate really helped us narrow down what we wanted to do overall, but he didn’t stop there. He provided detailed guides to help us navigate the airport and find our transportation to the resort, as well as a guide to explore the resorts and make sure we saw the best Christmas decorations. One of the many amazing things he also did was set up our dinner reservations for us. This saved us so much stress and allowed us to get some of our top choices. From the moment we landed in Orlando to the moment we headed back home, he made sure everything went smoothly. You truly can’t go wrong with going to him for your next trip.

Nathan has been an amazing trip planner for me! So helpful and responsive. I am a very type A person -- so someone who is even more on top of their game than me -- is so so appreciated! Nathan has booked 3 trips for me (1 completed 2 pending) and it was perfection. Thanks again!

Nate has helped us with our vacation planning for the last couple of years and we couldn't be happier with his service and expertise. We've used other travel agents in the past and none of them have done as phenomenal a job to make sure every detail is taken care of as he has. Switching to Nate was one of the best decisions we've ever made. He's always quick to answer questions and works tirelessly to make sure we get everything we want from our trips. Plus, he's just a genuinely great person who is wonderful to work with. Whether you're planning a trip to Walt Disney World, Disneyland, a Disney Cruise, or any other vacation, Nate is the guy you want putting it all together! Five stars across the board!
